Summary: Shock to a Stagnant Game Market
Review: I had recently stopped playing games, namely FPS because I was so uninteresed in the relative lack of innovation. It was during this hiatus that a friend menioned No One Lives Forever. I was immediately drawn in by this Austin Powers/James Bond mix and had to be dragged away from the computer, mid-mission 2 hours later. NOLF quite effectively balances actions, cut-scenes, gadgetry, and pure thought process to produce one of the most enjoyable games in memory.

Summary: A very good game !
Review: No One lives Forever is a very good and funny game. The graphics compared to Halflife and Quake are poor. It has a very nice story line , you go from country to country doing missions. It is very easy to play this game because when you start to play the game the first thing you do is to go threw a training course and learn how to use every gadget and gun. The selection of guns and gadgets is good too !! The game is funny too, when you try to shoot a guy then he is like , look out for the bullets !! or they talk in a German/English language and it sounds really funny. Was are sie doing here ? It is has a funny mood and good storyline but there are much better graphics avaliable in other games ! David S.

Summary: Man, this is the most polished i've ever seen a game
Review: Most games have little bugs that show it was rushed or that no one cared. And even great games like Half-Life have really bad parts like that whole Xen thing. But this game is just plain fantastic

i like the weapons. The humor (this is a funny game first person shooter, not a serious spy game) is awesome. i hate the '60s and those ugly constumes, but this game is still wonderful.

Only complaint i have is that i didn't like the scuba diving level. Also, the sharp shooting level where you protect the dumb US guy was pretty hard due to your limited field of view, but still fun

This is probably the best FPS i have played in a long, long time

Summary: A good, funny game
Review: I have to admit I am judjing this game from the demo.This game is also not for any one who expects the best graphics in the world. The movies are fair and the faces of the people look 'kinda blocky. But There is also some good humor in the game. The AI is very good and the your enimes push over tables and auctually know that they are not bulletproof. Though it is said to be a spy game I am almost never able to sneak past people. The gagets are nice and each weapon has a cretain advantage and disadvantage. I would recomend this game to anyone who loves good humor and good game play and does not mind graphics.

Summary: Is Cate Archer the next Lara Croft?
Review: I was pleasantly surprised by this game. It's far from the run of the mill first-person shooters that are being churned out.

What's different? First of all, there's actually a story and plenty of cutscenes between and during the missions. The locations are in the exotic locales you would expect in a 60's spy flick. The music is excellent (you'll find yourself humming the theme song), the acting is top notch (I love Cate's accent), and, as many of the other reviewers have pointed out, the characters have plenty of interesting stories you can eavesdrop on.

The AI is some of the best I've seen - the bad guys hide, duck behind corners or nearby objects and generally make it seem like they would prefer not to be shot. The developers have spent a lot of time making each locale look authentic, plus they have a great sense of humor too. Among other gags, you'll see a large sign pointing a rocket ship to the left with an equally large sign pointing out the toilet to the right.

I only have a couple problems with the game. First off, it's not really a "shooter". It's more a "sneaker", resembling Thief or Rainbow Six. Perhaps I'm just not that good at this game but there are missions that I just find impossible to complete. I'm always getting caught which sets off all the alarms and causes a quick death for me. I'll probably have to get a walkthrough or cheat codes to finish the game and I hate games where I have to do that! Maybe I'm getting old?

The load times are excruciating! Load up the game, start a mission, go make a sandwich, eat it, take a nap, wake up, get married, have kids, eliminate world hunger and hopefully by that time the mission will have started. Finally, I can see people with high-end systems complaining about the graphics. Personally, I don't think it's a big deal, it's kind of like comparing the graphics quality of Unreal Tournament verses Quake 3 - who cares as long as they're fun to play - but I want to mention it as they do look a little dated and that's a big deal for some people. By the way, the framerates are smooth on my machine which only meets the minimum listed system requirements.

So if you're a fan of the 60's, secret agent movies or you just want to play a shooter that requires brainpower then I would recommend this game to you. I hoped my review helped.

Summary: WOW! this is REALLY good
Review: Wow, what a game!

Fun, funny, fast, furious, adrenaline pumping and sophisticated problem solving. A very convinvcing world.

Now it is not like Unreal Tournament in its adrenaline, nor like Aliens in its edge of seat terror - nevertheless, it is just as potent! The tension comes from caring about your character, and trying to complete the missions.

For example, you are not supposed to shoot civilians, so imagine running around in a heated gunbattle in the middle of a hotel and trying not to shoot any civilians! as they duck for cover behind desks.

There is variety too, at one time you may be sneaking around, and another time being a sniper (providing cover for someone else), or running about in gunbattles, then hiding your gun and walking about calmly to blend in. Or frantically looking for a way out, and realising you can shoot the lock off a gate and duck through.

Fox has done it again with this one.

The atmosphere is amazing. Don't worry about it being 60's, it is not at all tacky or overbearing, it is bright, entertaining and very elegant. Ordinary people are walking about doing their day to day tasks, and they react to whatever you do.

I think this will become one of the most classic games. The next Lara Croft? Possibly, Cate has a tonne of personality and cheek, AND you get to choose what she says, AND this changes the games outcome!

I highly recommend you get it, you will enjoy it immensely.

Summary: Challenging and Fun
Review: Finally a fresh title in the world of first-person shooters. There's lots of great features about this game. The enemy AI is great! I found myself yelling at it when I first played it - "They're ducking and rolling!". Very slick. Lots of different levels as well. Standard stuff like factories, but there's a sunken freighter (complete with sharks) and one level where you're actually falling out of a plane and having a shootout in mid-air. Plus there's lots of humor in the game, both in the cutscenes as well as some of the dialog between enemy NPCs you hear as you go around the maps. Lots a fun and highly recommended!

Summary: My wife bought it for herself but I can't stop playing.
Review: While out shopping one night my wife spotted this game and bought it for herself. I installed it for her and started playing, I haven't stopped long enough for her to get on the computer. As a big fan of shootem up types like Quake and Unreal, I was pleasantly surprised by this game. The graphics, scenarios and humor make it an enjoyable purchase. I highly recommend it.
