    Xiii

    http://www.xiii-thegame.com/uk/home.php

    Got this yesterday, its a great game! Feels very complete. Only thing that seems random at the moment is online play is capped @ ~33fps? (Can't remember exactly, didn't play around with it for long).

    Got the demo - not sure about it though, although I do like the style: nice use of the UT2003 engine.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    LOL, it a bit poo considering it takes 6 hours to complete. Only the sneeky levels i had todo again. Ive mixed feelings about the save system though. Imo splinter cell save system is better than "checkpoints" which means you have todo whole levels again Im not fussed with cell shading either cause im a bit of a "true classic" gamest at heart i spose
    I dont like sig pics so i turn off sigs Which doesnt help when i dont know what ive written here! DOH!

    Agreed; I like the game, but save points are appalling - they really break up the flow of gameplay, and repeating bits you've already done successfully is just boring.
