basically if you dont own this game and you own an xbox 360 then theres a problem. you really need to buy it. this was a major launch title for the console and really is one of the best games i ve ever played. probably the most important 360 release to date. you re really missing out if you dont try it. once you try it you ll want to finish it. you will.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Learn more about TimeShift. (Flash demo) SynopsisDr. Aiden Krone is a former professor of Applied Physics at MIT, notorious for his unrivaled brilliance and obsession with Thermodynamics, Advanced Propulsion and Quantum Electrodynamics (QED). Despite his increasing demands for control and secrecy, he became the founder and lead physicist of a classified Time Travel research program. More than a decade later, Krone's program successfully developed the world's first time-traveling suit technology. However, as the program's equally secretive decision-makers demanded this technology be adapted for military applications, Krone's self-entitlement and anger grew. He desired a new existence where his scientific endeavors could be shaped without outside interference.The combination of Krone's mind and his suit technology gave him the ability to create and control another existence ~ an existence where a man of science could finally operate without restrictions, regardless of the effects on humanity. Now it's up to you to trace Krone and stop his tyrannical rule over Alpha District. Don the Beta Suit and master time to become the ultimate weapon.

eh, at best

i was more excited about this title than i should have been. i spent alot of time playing it and enjoyed it enough to continue until i reached a point towards the end of the game thats just basically impossible to complete. whats the point in playing a game you cannot win? i put it down and never revisited it deciding it just wasnt worth the annoyance. the time powers get repetitive, the weapons arent too inspired and neither are the enemies. id say rent it at most. 3 stars is generous.
What's great about it: looks good, plays well(to a point)
What's not so great: impossible at points
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

solid game

the immediate draws of the game are obviously the incredible graphic display, and intriguing central character and a violent storyline that takes place during a pivotal point in human history. that said, this is not a game you can just pick up and run with. there is certainly a learning curve, especially when it comes to climbing and combat. the combat engine is a bit clunky and tough to master but works well enough once you ve got it down. the game occassionally moves a bit choppy, particulary when you re up high and can see alot of your surroundings or when there are many hostile characters on screen at once. on the up side, the environment is huge and impeccably detailed, once you learn how to navigate and fight the game is alot of fun, and it doesnt hurt that the story line is for the most part interesting at least. some tasks eventually get repetitive as does the constant commentary and background noise from passersby in the cities but overall i like the game and would buy it again if given a choice.
