| Deleted User | Hi, -thanks, JKing - I was so hoping for a reply earlier - as I was looking for games to buy to make up a special discount that I had earned at an online store that I frequent. I got a reply on one of the other websites I frequent, that discouraged me from buying Scarface, so I decided to get Second Sight instead. Although I have by now already ordered it, I'm glad to see your reply, as I now feel good about my decision.
Thanks! 8-)
Oh! Btw - you're quite welcome to tell us about the game, if/when you have the time - it will be appreciated. :-*

Well, let's see. First and foremost it's an action game. Simply put you might call it a cross between Syphon Filter, Metal Gear Solid and Jedia Academy (all excellent games, by the way). There's some shooting, there's some sneaking, and there's also throwing things around with the power of your mind.
It's been some time since I've played it, so I may not be remembering correctly, but it is, I think, more or less equal parts of each, and the three don't seem like they were just mashed together for the hell of it---it's a quite cohesive game. The story, though sometimes a little confusing, progresses along a logical (if non-linear) course, and the ending is quite satisfying. It's nothing overly special, I suppose, but it served to keep me interested.
Otherwise... Fine graphics (though it's hard to tell what the PC version will look like), interesting locales, decent characters (though not great) and good voice acting. Anything I missed?

Yes- that idea rather intrigued me.

I have no idea - will let you know!
Thanks a ton!

Status : Online | Decision already made, but my thoughts on Scarface - pretty much a GTA clone, with even more over the top action. Peppered with Scarface references and saturated with its one-liners. Certainly some fun, and a fairly well put together game, if nothing overly special. Worth playing if your looking for another GTA-like experience.

| Deleted User | Thanks, An Inkling- wish I'd known that sooner. Hopefully I might still be able to get the cheap copy I saw the other day.
