OMG! What I've done doh.gif  I went to Imbi Mario to see if they have any stock left for Fight Night Round 3...and if they don't, I'll get myself Syphon Filter for PSP. But at the end, bought this s**t!

Maybe I'm a FPS freak, can't stand the temptation of good looking boxart and not-good-as-promising screenshot on the box. I got Evolution on Xbox before, but at that time it was a great game. But all I got here is a same old one without major improvement on graphic even on gameplay too. The only good looking is the water. Kudos to the team making such a great tweak. But that is not what will you'll be looking all the time, mostly you'll be in the jungle surrounding by the low resolution texture vegatation. They not even increase the bump level on rock and tree's trunk!

Another thing that really annoying me is that the ragdoll physic, we are entering the nexgen gaming console but they not even utilise the full potential of 3 symetrical core processing power! They don't even touch on the ragdoll physic code. I wish they have done something like Half-Life2, that's the best and fine example of good ragdoll. Even the NPC polygon numbers are the same as the old one. I'm really frustrating to see this.  This is a TOTAL rush port to Xbox360. Why don't take time and I can wait if they're seriously want to make a remake, make it on Crytek new engine. I bet everybody have seen it...if that what they are promise, it will be another blow in the future.

Better stay away from this. Anyway, I must finish this game to unlock the Instincts level, if not rugila my money. Keep your money for Battlefield (must have for multiplayer fan), Final Fantasy IX , Tomb Raider:Legend and FIFA 2006:Road To FIFA World Cup.

I'm waiting for Tomb Raider...

I emphatize with your purchase, but after reading the reviews and now your own impressions, this was the reason why i wont be getting this title. I mean c'mon, if Burnout 360 can do it, why cant this? Seems like a lazy excuse to sell another FPS title to the game-hungry 360 crowd.....

Yeah, Burnout's package (presentation, looks and style) can easily fit and compete head to head with the rest of the racers in 360 and still look like it fits the next gen bill, in fact i dare say, it loks comparable and better than PGR3 in some ways.

There is no excuse for Ubisoft to do a lazy port like this, and since there are next to no improvement except the "shiny water effect", it is like buying the Xbox version.....

How many more FPS can you get? If this one, the incentive is extra shiny water only, compared to a whole new genre of a game (flight sim), it has better incentive and more to look forward to than another FPS. One of the main attraction of an FPS is its looks, and frankly, i dont want to be cheated paying RM200 for "shiny water" only. whistling.gif

We all like our FPSes, but getting every FPSes out on the 360 , crap or otherwise, is still an unwise decision IMO. Getting a decent other genre will add variety to your gaming experience rather than tunnel-vision on one single genre only. Hence why some of us got Blazing Angels, Gun, or even FIFA. We dont want people to associate the 360 with just FPSes or racers only now do we? whistling.gif
