It's not that great... a very generic FPS that would have been totally ignored if it wasn't for the cel-shaded graphics.

Played a bit of it on XBOX. Too many other good games out there for this one to get my playtime.

I agree with those above. Story itself is above par, cut scenes can get exciting, but the gameplay itself is very blah. First mission is about the best so far, then it's all about the same from there on in.

It's one of those games that markets well, but ultimately dissapoints in the end.

Tried the PC demo, and got bored of it quick.  The cel-shading style is nice, though.

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicals or Ikaruga your interested in those?? Maybe any resident evils or Eternal Darkness(can be found for 15 dollars) all of those titles exept FFCC and Ikaruga are pretty cheap now (Res evil 1 costs 19.99 and 0 costs 19.99 in EB).



Edit:  How could I have forgot Mario Kart : DD its a fantastic game consider picking it up

I actually enjoyed the pc version a bit.  Although, I never did really get far in it.  Wait till it is cheap to buy it.

ive seen the PC version in many places for 20, so id go for that one, if youve got the juice to run it.  I have the multiplayer demo and have logged in hours upon hours just playing that.  This is another one I plan on buying because Ive heard the story is great, regardless of how formulaic the gameplay is.  Most FPS feel pretty formulaic, to me, anymore.

I didn't like XIII at all. The enemies never did much when you shot them. "Oh, a shot gun blast to the face, I think I'll just keep shooting my unlimited magic pistol. Oh, another blast to the face, spose I should fall over now"

Plus the levels were bland, objectives were stinky and the cel shading was boring. Not funky, boring.

If you want something with an X in the name get X2 - The Threat, the "true successor to Elite".
