The future is NOW![/quote] Parasite Eve 2 had Coke machines. The things were completely useless -- you couldn't tip them over and crush a mutated dog, or even, I dunno, buy a Coke and restore some health. Using them to unlock a better game (like the first Parasite Eve) would've been nice -- that or just not releasing the sequel.[/quote] Hired it for a night and got to the bit where you're trying to kick the agent out of the crashing plane. Decent fun, average graphics, good cutscenes, not enough spikey Ambien tentacularity and rotten fuck zombies. (such a cliche, i know) Like JK2, it makes you want to be good at the combat, but lets you get away with random button mashing. Worth a rental. Think Syphon Filter with specular highlighting and a massive freight train movie license pushing it towards a cliff of money. [/quote] Oni and Max Payne looked and played better. Both were mediocre games that stand head and shoulders above EtM. <a href="http://www.caltrops.com/pointy.php?action=viewPost&pid=11769"> This </a> is not a mistake or an anomaly, nor is it acceptable. The poly count on the human models are <a href="http://www.actiontrip.com/reviews/pics/enterthematrix4.jpg"> sub-DreamCast.</a> I agree it is not a button masher. A=punch B=Kick, there you go. The awesome kung foo game engine then makes all the kung foo look awesome... with your well textured stickmen. Renting is better then buying, I guess, though I still recommend avoiding. If it wasn't for the movie tie-in we wouldn't even bother discussing this shitty game. What it does right has been done before and better, what it does wrong is unforgivable. Can you imagine how much more fun this game (concept) would have been if Rockstar scored the license and used the GTA:VC engine? But there is a company that earns it's million unit sales and doesn't do much license shopping.[/quote]
