I couldn't fine a thread in the search so heres one.
yeah yeah Matrix is dead but....
I just seen the official trailer for this game on ign and I have to admit the game looks really fricking cool. You guys should check it out. Hopefully its not shovelware like the last game.
Shame on you for creating this thread.
Shame on you.
Hopefully Heidi Klum will ditch Seal and run to me.Quote:

I watched it (the trailer) yesterday, and even after the debacle that was Enter the Matrix, I have to admit that it looks pretty promising. At least you want to think so.
I always blamed Enter the Matrix sucking so much ass on the fact that they had to ship it the same day that Reloaded came to theaters. The game could have easily used another 6-12 months...and in turn could have came out alot better. Being tied to that date screwed Perry and company.

Then again, giving Shiny 12 more months could have allowed them to make that f'ing sewer level twice as large, effectively causing the game to suck twice as much. What do I know.
How many times does a franchise have to shit in your mouth, before you finally decide to close it?
i can't imagine ANYONE having faith in this game after the crap that was enter the matrix
No need to imagine, I have some faith. Of course I didnt totally hate the last film so my opinion isnt worth a damn. :DQuote:

Nobody gives a shit about the Matrix, or Gothy Future Jesus anymore.
It looks so cool... but it's Shiny. (Kinda catchy.)
I'm on the wait and see bench.
So this came out today. I picked it up. Seems cool. Lots of potential later on when you get more powers.
I thought this came out next week...I'm going to check this out. Looks like what Enter should have been.
It still cracks me up to think of how many folks around here rushed out to buy Enter the Matrix on it's first day of release. We should dig that thread back up.
I don't remember that many people buying it here. Then again, that was awhile ago.
More impressions please. I never jumped on the Matrix hate bandwagon and am actually interested in this game.Quote:

I looked on ebs site and they say it ships next week. I wonder why my store got it today? Theres no release date on the box anywhere I checked.
the pause screen is kickass BTW. Hes played it for a few hours already and is still on the 1st movie.
I just picked this up today as well. I too was waiting until next week but then I came home from work and saw Mog's post. Immediately went to like 5 stores looking for it. Thought all hope was lost until I went to Toys r Us. Bam, there it was on the shelf. Gamestop hadn't even gotten it in yet, but they did ask me if I would like to pre-order it. I'll give my impressions later tonight but know in advance...I am a HUGE matrix fan.
I have to complete the trilogy, so I'm glad this thread reminded me.
I CANNOT BELIEVE THEY DON'T HAVE KEANU AND HUGO DOING THEIR VOICES.

When this game tanks it will effectively be the final nail in the Matrix coffin. It really is an interesting case study, that a franchise that had such early potential is now almost universially reviled or ignorned.
EtM having sold like 8 billion copies sort of suggests that this game will not tank.Quote:

I beat the game tonight. BEST ALTERNATE ENDING EVAR!!
So ya...how bout them impressions. Awesome job there Tojo.
Well shit, I thought everyone knew this game wasn't going to be that good. Here is what I think of it:
Graphics are choppy, framerate sucks, combat consisted of button mashing throughout the entire game for me. Once I learned a couple key combos, those were all I needed to use. Some of the levels are very very retarded (Merovingion). I'd put it in spoiler tags but I don't know how to use them. There is one very specific enemy that is just so out of place and not matrix-y at all, the chateau levels are about as bad as you can get. Graphical glitches everywhere. They did a good job on Neo's coats (flowing in the wind, walking, etc) but his legs and such are constantly going through them. Camera sucks too, zooming in real close when your fighting a bunch of enemies, etc. You can click the left analog to reset it behind you or control it with the right one. Music as Mog said is terrible. There were seriously some parts of the game where I just put the controller down and listened to the music just so I could hear it. Terrible terrible soundtrack, until the end of the game that is. The song during the ending credits was just awesome. Overall I'd say don't buy this game unless your a big Matrix fan or just have money to burn. Rent it if your curious, otherwise just have someone who's played it spoil the alternate ending for you. It really was that awesome....to me anyway.
P.S. The Wachowski's are in it! Sorta, not really.
?! :yuck:Quote:

The game had some moments but again, Shiny really blew the level designs. Not having the real movie music in the game still pisses me off. You also have to crank the volume on the tv because you cant hear jack shit.
Samurai just showed me the ending stuff. LOL. That was some funny shit. LOL at the Warchowskis(?) making fun of there own movie too. I thought it was odd they even had new CG made for that ending. Looked good too. Was it just me or was the credits scroll at the end more well done than the rest of the game?
I thought the credits were pure genius
