That's right my friend give me a copy of the new 'XIII' game, which isn't out yet in the UK...and I must say it is wikid!

Well the intro movie is. I've only played on it for a couple of minutes or so, I'll have more time tomorrow with a bit of luck

Anyone else like it?

That's the one which uses 'comic book' style video rendering (along with textures and objects to make it look right), right?

I must admit, I dont know whether I like it or not. To be honest, the artwork just looks amaturish...

It's just the style they were going for. Some like it, some don't. As simple as that.

'The Coding Area', I can't decide either

But I do like the intro movie

If someone gave it to me as a present, then I would certainly play it, but I'm not going to go out of my way to buy it myself...

I think its a nice Idea. Although I think you may get away with the style in a 3rd Preson Adventure a FPS should be as realistic as it gets.

Basicaly how many people would play it over I dunno something like the new Half-Life 2 game.

I think it would make a great RPG, but FPS? I like the way it looks, it is really nice, but if I shoot someone I want blood 'n guts!

Played it for a few minutes, pretty fun, but as you guys were saying the BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM, and VROOOOOOOOM, and Tap Tap TAP get pretty annoying while your trying to kill someone.

And David Duchovny(spelling?) got on me nerves quick also. God i hate dhim on X-Files, why would i like him in a FPS.

I'm sick of Signatures

I hate the X-Files! It had the potential to be great, but was too full of holes.

I@ve played to pc version and didn't really like it

Maybe that was because something was wrong with the controls and I couldn't stop moving

GIBS, BABY!

'I hate the X-Files!'

Hitmen should arrive at your place in under four hours. I paid for quick delivery.

'It had the potential to be great, but was too full of holes.'

I think that can be said of half the crap that comes out of Hollywood. What do you expect from a conspiracy theory TV show that went on for 9 seasons?

Trouble is, the BBC started putting it on at 10pm (or some other daft time) instead of 9pm, and moved the day it was on, so I gave up watching it...

Season 3 had some of the funniest episodes ever... IMO all of the seasons had their gems. It's just tough dishing out $120 for each successive season when you're only going to like half of the episodes in it...

Wow! I've finally got down to playing 'XIII', and would just like to say, that it's great

I just love the whole concept of the game...

...Any more thoughts?
