This one is alot more fun to play. At least you get to play a person who can alter time and space for your own purposes.It's really just another war game but this time it has a much better story line than Haze. At least this didn't seemed patched together at the last moment.
This doesn't falter in any kind. It stays true most of the time and at least if you screw up, you can replay certian areas again and not get bored to tears.
Your mission is basically the same in haze to stop a madman at all costs. At least it's a bit more loosely based and if you get caught in a crossfire, you can retreat to a safer area. I did and it helps, at least it didn't play like Halo at all.
The only draw back about it is when you encounter others who have the same ability. They move slightly faster than you, my trick was to lure them into a corner and just unload everything you got. It's a great shooting games, well I found it great.
At least your shooting at other humans who have a reason to take you on and it seems you do have to oppose those that seek to kill you.
Don't get me wrong about it, with a wonderful story in place. It does get a bit much on the war since it can be over done.
This is unlike halo in so many ways, at least you get to be alone for some time except with a group of people that can get in your way.
I always find that the charaters get in your line of fire. It might be a game flaw in most of them, but in general it's on the right track of being a good franchise. Not great just good enough to know it is worth it.
At least I didn't fall asleep playing this one. Sorry this is short, as for online I can't tell you since I don't play online games. I guess I should try one day.
