Want to play a first-person shooter on your console? Tired of there being no proper
f1i GoldenEye
f0i0 sequel? Wishing that you could play the part of a Barbary ape in the Wild West?
f1i TimeSplitters 2
f0i0 is the game for you if you answered "yes" to any of these questions.
When Rare made GoldenEye for the N64 in 1997 they created the best first-person shoot-'em-up the world had ever seen and, arguably, has ever seen to this day. Many of the geniuses behind the game left Rare shortly after to set-up their own company, Free Radical; their first game was the rather rushed (in time for the PS2's launch)
f1i TimeSplitters
f0i0 but this sequel is polished to perfection and easily one of the best games of the year.
One of the main problems with the original
f1i TimeSplitters
f0i0 was its awful single-player mode, but this has been totally revamped for the sequel with a proper story mode, all-new time zones and weapons and absolutely mountains of unlockable hidden extras. Thankfully they'd5ve kept the wicked sense of humour from the first game, but there's also a lot more strategy for solo players this time around, including an amusing homage to
f1i GoldenEye
f0i0 's Arkangelsk Dam level as well as pastiches of other games and films scattered throughout the game.
The real reason for
f1i TimeSplitters 2
f0i0 's greatness, though, is the multiplayer mode. This is
f1i GoldenEye
f0i0 to the
f1i n
f0i0 th degree, with superbly designed levels, tons of weapons and all sorts of tricks and gimmicks such as remote control gun turrets and invisibility pills. It may lack the epic scope of
f1i Halo
f0i0 but in multiplayer mode at least this is a lot more fun--and fun, as The Beatles never said, is all you need. --
