A Clear Case of Insanity January 27, 2005
5 out of 6 found this review helpful
I played this game today through the first training mission and a portion of the second training mission. In the latter, the objective is to terminate a guard on station. For this game, I have to approach the guard, activate the A button, and duplicate a series of movements. I noticed that based on my position that these varied. Unfortunately, the cut scene didn't match my movements. It was consistently the same - my character would do a forward kick with the right leg, the guard would be aroused, and my character would be gun-butted by the alerted guard. I repeated this many times. The definition of insanity is repeating the same event over and over, aka Rogue Ops.
(There are better stealth games. I would recommend two games which incorporate stealth in their game design - Thief: Deadly Shadows and The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay. I have both and can attest to their quality.)
 FEMETAL GEAR SOLID!!! April 24, 2004

First of all, I gave this game five stars to "balance" the reviews among "positive" gamers who don't use the rating system in their reviews(hope you don't mind). To me, it's a 4-star game, and quite an impressive entry for an unknown title and developer, even if the game seems a little rushed in its development and storyline. This game has such wonderful cheesiness, it's like a 1990's straight-to-VHS action adventure which makes it worth every penny of its Van Damme price.
What really impresses me is the way that Kemco did their homework to create a game that adapted the best aspects of a Metal Gear adventure with a Lara Croft-ish character and Tenchu stealth attacks. In fact, I was so disappointed with PS2's TR:Angel of Darkness, I had to give this game a try and loved every stealth-kill moment and outsmarting every trap(Of course, resetting the game always helps). Yes, it's sometimes frustrating, but at least you can replay missions and become a death-bit*h from hell on your victims, and still feel good about being a man.
This game could have been a sub-chapter in the Lara Croft's saga, but it's better leaving Nikki Conners on her own so she can deal some unique wood choppin' spine splits, and then tell James Bond that a true Englishman always prefers Gin in his Martini.
A HUGE disappointment February 9, 2004

I wanted to like this game.... I really did. I played it through, and it is now in the trash, as I would not even want to pawn this on a used buyer. If you like games where you spend hours just getting by a silly puzzle (i.e. turning the analog thumb control various directions within a absurdly short time limit just to get inside a door). The game possessed its fun moments, but they were far and few between, with the vast majority of time being spent repeating controller button combinations over and over again, combined with starting the level over and over again..... By the end of the game, I was truly relieved it was over; and in this regard, the joy of destroying the disk was of much greater enjoyment than was laying the game. Indeed, I've been gaming for 15 years and this is the first time I've ever judged a game as so bad that it deserve the expense of a trashing. The AI is absurd as well. At times, you get detected when it clear you are hidden, then at other times, you're right next to a guard -- face to face -- and he doesn't even notice. Buyers beware, this is certainly NOT a "Splinter Cell", or anything even close. This is a true abomination of a game, that I literally prefer ANYTHING to. Indeed, I never thought it possible to actually hate a game, but this game is unique in this regard.
A thinking person's game December 10, 2003

This game can be very frustrating at times as there are very few clues as to how to achieve certain goals. You are forced to think and solve, just as in Splinter Cell. If you like to just shoot and run, this is not a game for you.
Thank heavens for the thermo-optical imager that allows you to have some idea who is waiting around the corner. The Fly Cam can also save your butt. At first I thought it was just "cute" but is absolutely necessary on some missions. Batteries not included so you have to gather extra batteries as well as ammunition and health. A well thought out game that has received very little publicity...it well may become a classic as did Splinter Cell. Note: the last two robots are defeatable but you have to use your brain, not just grenades.
