Really Impressive

User Rating: 10 | TimeShift X360
I just got back from a gamestop in NJ where they ran a multiplayer session of the gam on LAN. I can't believe how little hype this game is getting. The time control mechanic in the MP setting is one of the most innovative and cool things I have seen in FPS MP in a long time.

I played through the first 10 levels or so of SP and while I haven't finished it yet, its right up my alley. The AI is smart and actually reacts to your use of time powers and the visuals are outstanding in the early levels. I think the story if cool too, but its not entirely clear and is somewhat separate from the game.

The time powers definitely add a new twist to the game that most games lack. I know that the press would rather play Halo or HL2 or COD4 again and that their opinions are influenced heavily by hype over substance, but this game is stellar. Its really worth a 9 but I am giving it a 10 because it needs more attention than it is sure to get...
