Enter the Matrix (DVD-ROM)

Summary: This game is the "One"
Review: This is for sure one of the best games I've ever played. Yeah, some people say that if makes your computer run slower than a snail - and that's true if your computer was made in 1982; but for those living in at least the 18th century, this game rules. An intriguing concept, the story of the game takes place in the "what you didn't see" part of the movie (Matrix Reloaded). In other words, all the stuff about Niobe and the Osiris - it's right here - with additional scenes which were seemingly ripped straight from the Matrix Reloaded DVD!
The martial arts in this game are superb - based on very simple button controls, your character can execute a wide variety of REAL kung fu punches, kicks, counter-attacks, and with your "focus" ability, you can truly bend time and gravity as your character dodges bullets, runs and flips off walls, and dives through windows - all with a stunning 3D engine that is a fresh break from the overused Quake III system (like the Jedi Knight Games). The character's detail is superb, and the overall combat system is plain awesome.
The sound is great too - with a unique 3D sound emersion system, you can literally "hear" gun shots from behind you, even if you only have 2 speakers!
This is a Must-Buy!

Summary: DO NOT ENTER THE MATRIX
Review: Wow im the first perosn to review this. Cool. Unfortunately im not going to start this review list off on a good foot. Frankly... this is a terrible game. 20 minutes after i had first popped this disc in I found my computer stuck with Niobi running, without going anywhere, into a wall. My computers CTL+ALT+DLT didnt work so i had to unplug my computer, losing some important work in the progress. Later that day i risked another try and found to my disbelief that it happened again! I called Tech support and got a way to quit the mission, losing my progress. One last time... i was getting tired, i had a surprisingly fun fight with an agent, slo-mo, while nothing like max payne, is certainly fun. I found gunplay to be much less rewarding feeling than martial arts was. Kicking the crap out of an agent was much more fun than trying to shoot some fat police gaurds. Then... to my horror Ghost got stuck in the air trying to do a cool matrix move. i dont think ghost can fly like Neo so i put in another call with tech support, losing all my progress form there... this is a glitchy game that had a hugh budget and should have been great. Only diehard fans of the movie should buy this game. The best part is the movie clips (or seeing Niobi lip lock with another femme fatale). I warn you, Do not enter the Rabbit hole, take the blue pill and live the good life. Even if its not real.
