It was supposed to come out this week. I'm not quite sure how he has a copy. But that's besides the point. It's a matrix game, when has there been a GOOD matrix game?

um... no?

I really want a good matrix game too, but it's not gonna happen. Upgrade, besides the obviously bad graphics that you'd expect from a matrix game, is the gameplay any good at all? I know, why bother... but you never know.

Heh, call me crazy but I thought the previous matrix game was pretty fun. It ran like $#!t on a good computer but it was fun.

Gameplay any good? I wouldn't know, it runs so bad. I've got a decent enough system I should be fine. But the thing is, it plays the same on the lowest settings as it does on the highest, so it isn't like I have the graphics too high. Speaking of, it looks HORRIBLE!

Here is the office

Horrible. That's on the highest settings.
Speaking of, anytime you change your video settings the game closes down and re-starts it self with the new settings. That means the "Atari" into logo, the "Shiny" into logo, etc etc. AND if you change your control setup, it goes away anytime you quit. So I have to re-map the keyboard eachtime.

It runs so weird and looks so horrible...I'm very very letdown.

Wow, if those are the highest settings, it looks like the game is in beta.

Heh.. wow, guess Shiny put out another crappy gaming despite having all the time in the world (their excuse for the last craptacular game was that they were under pressure from movie execs to get it done when the movie opened)

Wow that is pretty craptacular. I wonder if it's just a problem w/ your hardware, config or something, or if it's just that bad in general. I mean really, full $50 price for something that looks like that is regoddamdiculous

LOL...wow, sorry, i find that hilarious, being the matrix geek that I am.

It's called being developed for consoles as well, therefore bad graphics.

I'm not a graphics whore, but this just looks so awful I'm having a super hard time trying to play it

It looks like a PSX game threw up on a sega saturn game. Later in the office level when you go on the ledge, it's just.......horrible

I don't even bother playing games with bad graphics, no matter how good the gameplay is. ex. GTA San Andreas.

Ignoring how incredibly limited that viewpoint is (let alone defining 'good graphics'), your deviantart info says otherwise about your affinity for GTA:SA....

Hmm.. with 3 outlets reporting in, gamerankings shows it as an 83%. Gamepro gave the graphics a 4/5... but the screenshots still look like crap. Maybe it looks better in motion?
