    Definitely better than the first game. It's better than "Fallout." But it loses points on the biggest component it needed to compete with the upcoming "Champions of Norrath"; online gameplay. The fact is, if you have two games of similar quality, chances are you're heading for the one that's online.

    Sports almost twice as many levels as it's predecessor; topping around 80! That's a ton of exploring to do. And much of the game is mission based, and a little more linear than the first Dark Alliance. That's not a bad thing by any means though, and you will find side quests here and there with will yield great rewards to you.

    The problem is that you get thrown into the game with very little to work with. That would be fine if using the weapons weren't so freaking hard to do. Collision detection was not a big thought in this game, or at least it seemed to be an afterthought.

    The graphics in NFL Street look good with a slight edge going to the Xbox version of the game. The Xbox version looks smoother and cleaner while the PS2 version looks a little rough around the edges.

    The moveset is extremely limited, the action can't be too fast-paced, and it's harder to battle in multi-player mode.

    Half Life fans would love to know that there is also a Half Life 2 CD with exclusive footage. Let me say, *drool*.

    A little late, but still a good game. But, it's not a game where you must rush out to go buy it now. Unfortunately, it doesn't compare to the games that are out these days.

    It's a must for old schoolers and also a must for the younger generation so they can see what we had to play and how far videogaming has come in the last 20 years.

    This is a game without winners and losers. It's all about the personal satisfaction, and engrossing yourself in a wonderful game. Yes, I said a wonderful game.

    Music and sounds are solid, but Harry Potters voice is like a cheese grater on the brain.

    It looks fantastic! But it plays just ok. There's nothing in the gameplay that jumps out at me and says "play me for months".

    Even though the computer is cheap, the actual gameplay and physics are outstanding, and there are a ton of ways to play the game. And hello....online pool?

    I just think that if they could have stepped up the difficulty and/or the AI a few notches, this one could have been really good.

    Worlds above what the first game was, with the greatly improved graphics (beautiful Cel-Shaded graphics)and game modes.

    They made it just too hard in some places. When I am stuck on a level for as long as I was, that's too hard. When you have to start from the beginning of a level after almost beating it, and the level is almost 7 minutes long; that is too hard.

    You will fall over laughing at some of the cut-scenes in the game. Very well done, and hilarious.

    It is quite easy to write about the few design missteps in Invisible War but I’ve found it hard to explain the magic it has to grab you in and not let go.

    I cannot believe the presentation level is that far below it's Xbox and PC counterparts. It's been a long time since I've seen that level of difference.

    There is so little that is linear in the game, I have dubbed it "the action version of Knights of The Old Republic". Now before the KOTOR fans grab their pitchforks, I am talking about how you can completely control your own destiny in the game.
