The age of this game has nothing to do with how bad it is - it's just timeless in it's suckiness...

I didn't put myself through much torture playing this awful game. Tricked by "fair" scores I thought this would be somewhere on the lines of Far Cry. But my crying was not that far away. The art in this game looks like crap - everything looks like fifth grade poster paint could have done better. GTA Vice City looked better and it came out years before this. GTA San Andreas came out within a year of this and makes this look antiquated. I'm going by the standards of games released in the same period of this game, and it is very amateurish - the whole art staff should be banned from silicon valley and all game companies for life.

The acting, the sound, the performance - all shoddy. Just walking around town and picking up missions I already got bad clues as to how close this game would bring me to MY Boiling Point if I continued to play it. Just suffering through long, boring conversations was enough to make me hock up a keyboard. All of these drawn out conversations with badly created NPCs, and a lot of duplicates, sucked time out of getting to the action - major time - and already made it a drag.

The navigation system sucked too. You got a compass and a waypoint. There is no indication of the height of the target - so if your on the street looking for someone and they are in a building above you, it tells you you have found the target - dumb.

The game pops around, due to sound issues. The sound is inconsistent and jumpy. It feels like it wants to crash all the time. The into navigation is cheesy. The intro is cheesy - and ugly. The main character is ugly. Everyone in the game is ugly.

Just let this game die. The only attractive thing about it is the name. They should just sell the name off and let someone who knows how to make a game create one from the bottom up.
