Rating: Summary: Where's the single player experience? Review: First of all, the detail and feeling of the maps are great. There are a wide variety of scenarios to choose from and the addition of vehicles was a nice touch. This game rocks in multiplayer if you can find anyone online because of the ability to drive and shoot at the same time. The major drawback of this game is the lack of single player. I didn't pay $30 to play a simple "capture and hold" scenario with enemy bots, and would not have bought the game if I had known that was what i was getting. For as much time as the developers put in to develop the maps and characters, why didnt they take more time and at least link up the maps similar to Quake 3, or at least give some sort of reward for holding the points the longest other than after the 20 minute time limit runs out telling me i had more frags than anyone. I wouldnt recommend this game if you have a poor internet connection of if you mainly want it for single player. Unless if you have a fast connection or attend a lot of lan parties, save your money for something else.
Rating: Summary: What a waste Review: For all of you who have given this game such good reviews... shame on you. Come on, this is unfit for freeware.
This game is a multiplayer slugfest ONLY, and a mediocre one at that. Very limited weapon selection, and no chance to use any type of tactics or strategy. Limited types of opponents, and no real challenge to any of them.
There is absolutely no single player here. The maps have a few nice touches, but there's really not much to speak of. After a quick look around, you've seen it all. Maps are far too large, resulting in a lot of time wasted running to the action (not as annoying on multiplayer with many many opponents). Computer AI is an absolute joke, worse than any game I've seen in years. I bought it and tossed it in the trash within two hours. Don't let any obsessive fans talk you into this one, it's total garbage.
Rating: Summary: This Sucks! Review: I hated it, boring, the ai is stupid, and he moves like hes a snail, its got stupid little sound effects and red targets to make it even easier to find your target. It feels like im playing robocop: return to the grave. Dont waste your money
Rating: Summary: Patch has been released. Review: If you go to Atari's main website and find the support page, theres a patch for this game that resolves alot of issues.
Rating: Summary: One of the Best Idea's of All Time Review: Imagine Battlefield 1942/Wolfenstien (a fine combo I might say) Terminator style. Plus you play as Arnie, I downloaded the demo and it was great you can play in different maps that are from Dawn of Fate and you can seriously kick ass as a machine or as a marine. It is seriously tyte! If you like good first person shooter games get this game because it is seriously pimpin! I love it, I can't wait for it to come out for PS2!!!
Rating: Summary: Stay away if you want to live. Review: Or, at least, enjoy yourself. Don't get me wrong, the landscapes are incredibly mood setting, if not just a little sparce. The levels are sprawling, almost too much so. A nice radar that covers a reasonable area of each map is a nice plus, with arrows representing the 'bad' guys location. There's not really very much voice acting here, mostly just 'grunts' when AHNULD falls from a ledge or something. Also, the box touts single player action. Well, it's a lazy single player game. No scripted sequences that i've seen. Basically, it's just the multi-player maps and you're fighting computer enemies instead of folks from around the world. There haven't been any sequences to link these multiplayer maps together in the 'single-player' mode, either. It just feels like they forgot to put the important touches on this. Nice weaponry that all-to-often ends up killing you because of the sheer power of them. As a multiplayer game, this is a 4 star. Mainly because it plays wonderfully on my dsl connection. I don't know about dial up. Very smooth action. However, the single player deserves more like a 2 star. I think i was looking forward to an immersive first-person expierience before diving into the multi-player aspect. Without the first, the latter just seems a little empty. Also, it's a couple of weeks into release, and i've seen very few people out there playing the multi-player maps. This game is aroung a gig in size, and should be ran on at least a pentium 4 or amd xp 2400 for quality. You really should have 256 mg of ram and a dsl connection too. There is a good supply of maps to keep you busy. Good game, just not great.
Rating: Summary: Very Fun!!!! Review: T3WoTM is a very fun game. If you like Battlefield 1942,it has a very similar feel as that game.The graphics is alittle choppy in the inital playing of each game,but seems to smooth out as you play. This may be to the amount of bots spawning,and how smart the AI is set,that may effect cpu processing. Thus 4 stars instead of 5.You play many roles in the human military base,or you can be several types of terminators including on that can fly. Terminators move very stiffly,and see a red vision,with losts of numbers in the form of square on the left side of the screen. Just like in the first Terminator movie.Futher more,if you have the highest frags,you can select the actual Arnold Terminator. Both Terminators and Humans,have several vechicles and stationary weapons to utilize. The maps are hugh,and finding on-line games is fast,but since this is a new game,I only found 3 or 4 servers. I'am sure as the game becomes more popular,more servers will be available. Enjoy!!!
Rating: Summary: Battlefield1942/Terminator Style Review: Terminator 3: War of the Machines is great fun. Everyone saying this game sucks because of it's AI and it's bad single-player are wrong. It is just like Battlefield 1942. Is there a campaign in 1942? No. Just the MP maps and you playing weak AI. Same as in Terminator 3: War of the Machines. Choosing between Tech-Com and Skynet is really cool (Just like in 1942). Being the Terminators frying the Humans is a great way to let of some steam. Or being the Tech-Com Fighters and roasting metal. Either way. And you guys saying War of the Machines AI is weak, just look at 1942. I've seen Americans and Germans two feet away looking right at eachother and they stood there, so i wacked em both. I can get around the AI faults and the 12 SP maps. The question is can you?

Rating: Summary: Don't buy me. Review: The game lacks alot. It even lacks support from Atari, the developer who's main page online is literally a picture. It is suppose to be supported by GameSpy, it is not, there no dedicated servers by Atari or the developer. The game has potential but unless these issues are resoloved, IE:graphic problems, lack of storyline, mulitplayer issues, this game is dead in the water.
