Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Now's your chance to take the red pill for real and Enter The Matrix--not simply a video game adaptation of the films but a whole new chapter in the Matrix saga. Indeed, the best thing about Enter The Matrix is the way it seamlessly connects with the three films, for although it's based on none of them directly, it allows you to play the role of either Niobe or Ghost (minor characters from The Matrix Reloaded) while running into the likes of Neo, Morpheus and Agent Smith as the game's story unfolds. Not only that but the story, as well as all the exclusive video footage, is written and directed by the films' creators, the Wachowski brothers.
The game itself is, somewhat predictably, a third-person shoot-'em-up not at all dissimilar to a more balletic version of Max Payne. It's somewhat surprising though, for such a high-profile game, to find the graphics are actually a little below par and the controls somewhat clunky, but generally it all looks and plays pretty well with all the classic Matrix-style slow-motion acrobatics relatively easy to pull off.
Easily the best bits of the game are the on-foot chase sequences, usually involving agents, which are actually rather tense and a great way to show off all the running and leaping powers you've mastered in the rest of the game. The worst bits are the car chases, especially if you play as Niobe and have to put up with the terrible car handling, instead of just hanging out the window and shooting as Ghost. Still, this is a decent game overall which, although unlikely to win any awards in itself, is sure to please most Matrix fans. --David Jenkins
Manufacturer's Description
Enter the Matrix is the story behind the story. It features awesome gunplay, spectacular martial arts, insane driving, breathtaking stunts and the chance to pilot an incredibly fast hovercraft. This game isn't just set in the Matrix universe--it's an integral part of the entire Matrix experience, weaving in and out of the highly anticipated second instalment of the franchise, The Matrix Reloaded.

Well, I've been playing this for an afternoon now and it isn't really getting any better. It could have been so GOOD, and that's the frustrating thing... so many things are going for it yet it's ultimately let down by its generally shoddy nature.The movies are great and tie in directly to Final Flight of The Osiris, the CG Matrix short, and the story of Reloaded. Jada Pinkett Smith's acting and the guy who plays Ghost try hard with a duff script, but the direction is pretty good, even in-game. If only the in-game graphics actually matched up to the Wachowski's ambitions. I'm running it on a mammoth PC and IT SLOWS DOWN, even patched. This isn't when in focus-mode, either. There are glitches left right and centre, stiff character models and odd musical cues. The fighting is initially satisfying yet let down completely by a terrible camera system which gets lost, and ultimately costing much-needed health for your chosen avatar. So? A dissapointment. Shiny were capable of much, much more than this. Buy it, but don't say I didn't warn you... I was warned and I bought it anyway...

Enter the Matrix is a really good game. I found it to be very absorbing.. and interesting. The only problem I had with the game was that in some places, it's a bit confusing...(maybe because of the darkness in some areas). Overall, the graphics are great for a couple of years ago. I have run the game using a Geforce 4 MX 400 and a Geforce FX5500. Never experienced any graphics problems in this game, that I remember. Overall, a good game.. worth buying if you're a fan of the movie trilogy.

Enter the Matrix,
This review is from: Enter the Matrix (PC) (Video Game)
I bought this game a few months back, and on the whole, it has been great! I did have a few problems getting used to the controls at first, but after that, it definitly became one of my favourites. Also, playing this game offers loads of answers to those who watched Reloaded and Revolutions and went "Huh!? Dont get it...". It simply helps tie the loose ends together.A good game, buy it if you like surreal action sequences!
