Summary

Timesplitters 2: Needs more salt...

The Good

"Wow", I thought, upon booting it up and getting the singleplayer Story mode going. "True sequel to Goldeneye", my mind screamed.

That first level. It's a beauty. Well positioned enemies, good objectives. ZOMBIES. It all felt wonderful.

The Bad

Oh, christ, what happened? It's as though they poured everything, and I mean EVERYTHING they had to give into that first level. Everything afterwards feels oddly shallow, even for a standard FPS game.

Oh, and the aiming system isn't too great, but it's forgivable.

The Bottom Line

A rip-roaring crazy work of monkey-catching magic in multi-player. Don't buy it for single-player expecting some deep, great story. It's no Halo in one-player.
