Challenging Good Game That Never Received it's Due Credit

User Rating: 7 | Gun Metal XBOX
GunMetal, when released in 2002, received very little praise and recognition. And I find this is confusing as I have come to enjoy this game immensely. Even if your'e not a fan of Robot games or transformers this is a still a great Action title which sadly did not receive it's due credit. The visuals of GunMetal look terrific on component cables; even 6 years later in 2007 ! Frame-rate is generally smooth with some hiccups, atmosphere level design is beautiful, and robot design is breathtaking. The GunMetal robot itself looks like a beautiful piece of White Platinum jewelry which left me rather impressed. Sound department of the game is done fine. In game music score is not annoying and at the same time it isn't anything noticeable. I would describe it as a soft type of background techno beats. But if you see yourself really unhappy with the music; there is an option available for you to listen to your tunes from your xbox hard drive. My biggest complaint is that one or two levels near the end of the game are not designed too well. These specific Missions are meant to be challenging but they come off as being very cheap; leaving a great frustrating after-taste. Gaming hours put into GunMetal is somewhat low so expect to finish this game within a week or two. Still GunMetal on a whole is a good game despite it's small flaws and I recommend this title to any gamer out there!!
