sci-fi

There should be a law, and I volunteer to organize a protest to get things rolling. Did no one involved with the movie Minority Report pay attention to Activision's most recent games? Such as Spiderman: The Movie? Now don't get me wrong....I gave Spiderman 5 stars, but Minority Report is NOT Spiderman.

Minority Report, the movie, is a stunningly beautiful, story-driven mix of action, drama, and suspense created through ethical dilemmas. Minority Report, the game, is a fun, combat-driven game with incredible rag-doll-enemy effects, cool futuristic weapons, and a fair dose of jet-pack insanity.

"What's your problem?" you're saying. "It sounds to me like you liked both the movie AND the game. So quit your whining, you pathetic, left-over carnival prize, before I..."

Now wait a second....I didn't say I liked the game. It's fun, but I don't like it. The combat is great, but I found myself just playing the same level over and over, trying out different moves, instead of going through the other 40-or-so equally repetitive levels. And I kept being dissapointed with the lame, badly-animated cutscenes. (An even greater loss than Tom Cruise as John Anderton, is the loss of Colin Farrel as Danny Witwer. The voice talent that replaced him put me in physical pain. No, really. Miss Cleo could have delivered a more convincing performance as the cocky CIA agent.) And the story isn't even the same! Not even close!!! It's as though the folks at Activision had a meeting and carefully decided to screw up what could have been one of the greatest epic action/adventure games ever. Instead, they created yet another enjoyable but stupid fighting game.

RENT IT. Don't buy.

I'll see you at the protest.

I bought this game thinking that it would be spectacular. Boy was I wrong. While it has its fun moments, it is mostly monotonus and boring. The fighting system isn't bad, but the graphics are sub-par. The rest is just average. 3.5 Stars

When I heard of Minority Report the game, I thought it would be a lot like the movie. I was wrong. In the game, cops, guards, and robots try to kill you. Not knock you out kill you. You kill atleast 3000 people. In the movie like 1 guy died. I was disapointed.
