One of the most unique FPS's I've played
No nostalgia goggles on – this is genuinely a really unique, quality, and enjoyable FPS is you are into Tron or sci-fi in general. I’m not sure if Tron: Legacy was already planned for a future movie release or what, but there is some mention of it in this game, which is really cool from a continuity standpoint considering I missed this game when it came out. The visual style holds up well and the writing is clever, intelligent, and lots of fun if you are into computer lingo at all. The gameplay is a lot of platforming and disc-based FPS. Your primary weapon is basically a frisbee bommerang that you need to careful utilize so that you won’t get killed by the system or corruption goons too quickly. Combat is fast-paced and generally enjoyable. There is one part that is fairly obnoxious where some of the scout-type enemies must basically hit-scan you and can be a long, long distance away. I was quick saving like crazy and praying I could make it through, as there are scarce healing stations in that section; and the scouts don’t drop health like the other enemies. I didn’t fully appreciate what the LOL program did at the time, either (it’s a sniper rifle; uses a fair amount of energy per shot, though). There are a couple of other questionable sections, namely a few of the more crowded light cycle arenas with low visibility. You’re kind of stuck hoping that the computer walls itself off and commits suicide while trying not to do the same to yourself, which is pretty boring. For a ‘movie game,’ though, it’s still among the best. I highly recommend this FPS if you are looking for something with a ton of style and a unique set of FPS rules to play by.
