This Game Takes Place Between 5:00 AM and 6:00 AM

The Good
The voice acting. Almost all of the cast signed on for the game. Keifer does Jack Bauer better than any amateur voice actor could. Another good thing about this game is the character models. They look picture perfect to their television counterparts. Another good aspect of this game is switching between characters. I liked the ability to play as other people besides Jack. The targeting system is similar to James Bond: Everything Or Nothing, which was also a good game. The minigames like the sniper missions and interrogations give the game some needed variety.

The Bad
The driving missions control like a tank being driven by a mentally retarded duck. There's quite a few of these within the game, so be prepared to throw your controller at the TV screen. The second is pacing. This game can feel really dull at times. Melee combat needed a little bit more work before they released the full game.

The Bottom Line
A nice game that is for hardcore fans of the show, and also a good way for people who have never even watched it before to experience 24. If you can get past the driving sequences, this game is a good way to blow the 8 hours that you could have used to do something important.
