4.0 out of 5 stars
its pretty good, 15 Sep 2004
Theres 2 ways you can play this game, run in shooting psi powers blazing, or stealth it up, sneaking past enemies and using psi powers to help you do it. Option 1 will get you killed quickly and repeatedly.If you prefer option 1 don't buy this game, cus you will get bored of option 2 very quickly. If option 2 sounds appealing read on. The main feature of the game is the Psi powers, initially all you have is 'telekinisis' you can move opjects about with this, you can use it as a weapon and whack enemies with chairs and stuff, but its pretty slow, so not your first choice. you'll quickly obtain 'healing' guess what that does! and 'psi attack' another easy one there and 'charm' which allows you to sort of appear invisible so long as you don't get too close and don't touch anybody. those are the only powers iv uncovered so far but i believe there are more. There are also a plethora of weapons available (in the flashback missions in particular, but im not giving away the story!' The grahics are pretty impressive, especially the ones related to psi powers, blue energy waves emit from your hand for telekinisis, the scenery warps when you psi attack and your form becomes all fuzzy. The voice overs aren't partiularly great, but the main characted stands out above the rest. the music and sound effects both good up to scratch. The control system is not bad, is quite responsive and favours the L and R buttons over the shapes, which i actually prefer, mite not be to everyones taste. all in all its a fun game, but for the thinking stealthy warrior rather than the all out gunner.
