Title: The Matrix: Path of Neo - Good 10 dollar game
Post by: MrAngryFace on January 02, 2008, 03:12:20 AM
Whatever that means....I mean the gunplay stuff is fuk dumb, but the kung fu weapon stuff is a lot of fun and the additional scenes that never happened are entertaining. Plus it was nice that the game really spends some levels teaching you combat. The gun combat is dumb cause aiming is so loose and there's no real sense of where you need to be looking to lock onto something specifically. They kept sayin there's a way to cycle through targets but my hands were wrapped around the sixaxis like claws and it was starting to hurt.
The game also has widescreen woot. The stupid cubicle building escape stuff was a big frown, but the training stuff was awesome. I ended the game racing morpheus to some telephone in an obstacle course. I botch some wall segment and got mad. Lots of trial and error in this game's run n jump parts tho :(

I played some of this on my hacked XBox. I really liked it when I wasn't fighting the controls, but with so many free games to choose from, I couldn't spend time fighting them anymore.
Too bad. Hope they give the Matrix another shot in videogameland.

yeah the gun controls drive me mad, the combat controls arent as bad, but no matter how cool I look I never feel like its skill

Is this game backwards compatible? I'd pick it up for the collection. I got stuck in that early restaurant, mainly because like you said the gunplay is completely unintuitive. Unnecessarily complex controls and a shitty HUD complicate things. But there were things I liked about the game, all things said.

Figures :(
I hate my mail, don't even get me started on it.
I'll hope for the best and prepare for the worst, then.

I will but don't feel like you have to double-mail.
Honestly, I have had mail problems at my new place not limited to but involving my car insurance which led to my insurance getting canceled. Currently fighting Best Buy to get some packages refunded, and had a lost shipment from Deep Discount DVD.
I believe that you sent it and hopefully I'll get it :) When did you send it for reference?
The only thing that irks me is that last year I didn't get my Secret Santa gift either, for non-related mail concerns it got returned before I could get to the PO to get it.

I'll deliver it personally, if they fuck up and you never get it.
My car makes good mileage, and I've never seen the ocean.
Edit: Dec. 23 is when I placed my order. 3 day expedited shipping.

I guess hoping for a good matrix game is like hoping for a good matrix sequel. :-\
