but in my head right now, the only problem that i can think of is that the character models could have used just a little, i repeat, just a little help in details, but other then that, the game looks pretty good compared to the first three. Graphics: The environments are great, but not mind blowing. Gameplay: The controls are tight with wonderfull precision that makes this, unfortunatly dissapointing sequal, into a solid game. So overall the game is a blast but only for the first couple of days, if even that, because once you enter the codes (if your a cheater!) theres really no point in playing it after that Because of its silly mission similarities through out the game. But once again I have to give them credit one more time for trying to pull it off, but unfortunatly did not. Overall: I appreciate the effort that neversoft put in to the game by trying to create an open-ended feel to it, but in my opinion I think that the THPS3 engine was just fine. It lacks the simple joy of loading THPS3 and just shredding it up for a few minutes each day. I applaud your efforts, but they came out somewhat disappointing in the execution. And, of course, you can make use of custom soundtracks which is always a good thing for those of us who love Xbox. I am glad for the different music, which to me is a step up from the limited and highly repetitive music of THPS3. Sound: The sound is pretty good for the most part. The graphics aren't bad, not by a long shot, but they aren't my cup of tea. More sharp edges to the characters' features and outlines. Graphics: While you get a lot more, visually, in the game, the graphics do not appear as smooth as THPS3. There are some goals that you will put off forever because they either a) don't make sense or b) will require patience, creative problem solving and a lot of focus.
I'm glad that the guys at Neversoft tried to make this game harder than THPS3, but it's a double-edged sword and a steep learning curve. These can certainly look cool, but can be quite hard to do. There are certainly more crazy tricks to try out that you can both learn through goals and figure out for yourselves.
Gameplay: Not too much is new in the gameplay. The environments are expanded and the best feature is the suspension of the 2 minute time limit. All in all, it's an enjoyable, if frustrating, gaming experience. Overall: Like many others who have reviewed this game before me, I agree that it tried to do too much and broke too much away from the THPS3 formula which worked just fine.
