The Game kinda sucks now, since there is NOTHING to really do after you have finished it.. And theres not alot of Moves, you find that your doing the same ones over and over...
Terrible game. I only enjoyed playing it through because I love the matrix. The game was buggy, poorly coded, and framerates dropped to nearly unplayable levels at random sometimes. And it isn't my computer because I get 69-70 fps in halflife 2 settings maxed with hdr on.
It is somewhat telling that some reviewers are saying "At least EtM had x, y and z going for it..."
(normally referring to the decent footage and voice acting)
So they haven;t even topped EtM, and that is after shamelessly pandering to the fans by giving you control of Neo- the intiial reticence to do was something I thought praiseworthy.
EtM, other than the driving sections, wasn't that bad- but then Prince of Persia came out and shat on it. They needed to raise their game here, and didn't.
With Matrix Online now condemned as "Some nice ideas but totally cocked up" we now have a franchise that was BEGGING for decent gaming adpation totally fail to deliver.
Boo.

I need to play this game again, I got about 3/4 the way to the end and my memory card got erased.... *(@#&^$(@#$.... it's been long enough that I think I can start this game up again.
I thought the game was fairly decent. It definitely had great potential, however, i think this was compromised due to the rush of getting it out on shelves. The action was cinematic and when you actually pulled off some matrix moves without the camera getting in your way, you felt like Neo..if not just a little bit. I think the cinematic design they went with hurt the hit detection. When i wasnt executing a grab combo, i didnt feel like i was actually hitting anyone.
I liked the way the story was set up aswell as the ability progression. Being a matrix fan i give the game a 7/10 being a gamer i give it a 5.5/10. The camera became your worst enemy in the game, and im not even going to mention the glitches...but as a matrix or a john woo type action fan, there is much fun to be had here.
