Just decided to post this after purchasing 'Enter the Matrix' on Xbox, playing for around 4/5 hrs and then back to the store for a refund. What a major letdown this game was (and they say the Xbox game was the best version?!?). And to all those people who say 'well if u like the movies you'll luv the game' i say 'bullshit'. i rate the first 2 movies as something special, but still thought the game was pants...
Wonderin' what other users thought of this game after all the Hype!!!
Despite a budget in the tens of millions of dollars, Enter The Matrix is not a technological marvel. In fact, it's downright ugly. The character models look alright, but they inhabit a world that is awash with drab colors, covered in dingy textures, and filled with example after example of corner-cutting shoddiness. When outdoors, don't bother looking up; There won't be a sky. When you're told to look for a flashlight under a bridge, all you'll find is a gun; I guess there was no time left to create a simple flashlight model. The framerate does a better job than I expected of staying at 60, but still drops frames with regularity. (More are dropped when running in the game's widescreen 1080i mode.) Most amateurish of all is the character animation, which looks downright ridiculous at times; The heroes' running animations are particularly absurd. If I were an animator at Shiny, I'd make it a point to remove all traces of Enter The Matrix from my resume.
