Overall I liked this game a lot. There are only a few complaints I have about it. First, the storyline is awful. I don’t just mean bad, I mean terrible. The good news is that while the single player story is bad, playing it is actually a lot of fun. My second complaint is the controls. For some reason, they feel really odd. If you have ever played Rainbow Six 3 on the xbox, then you have sort of an idea of what I mean. It took me a while to finally get the controls down decently so I could actually hit what I was aiming at. Everything else about the game is great though. The graphics are extremely good and the audio is just as good. The weapons feel good to shoot and each gun is tricked out with secondary fire and sometimes a third function. The single player campaign offers a pretty good level of challenge and the AI does its job well enough. One of the big reasons most people will be buying this is for xbox live. From what I have played (maybe about 3 to 4 hours on live), its extremely fun. The levels can range in size from real small to insanely huge which is good. The game supports a ton of players (way more then halo 2, I think 32 players) and games with that many players are extremely crazy and intense. If you are looking for a xbox live FPS for the 360 then pick up PDZ.

I absolutely loved this game. Everything about it I liked. The gameplay is great. Switching between the different forms felt natural and flowed in battle. The environments were amazing to look at and explore. The character designs were great. The music was wonderful. Sure we have all seen this type of gameplay before, but I have never played a game that has done it this well.

I really like these types of games. These slow tactical shooters where you can die in a second if you aren’t careful are extremely tense and exciting from start to finish. While the original game was much better then this one (well this is an “expansion” after all), I still had a ton of fun with it. Now the graphics seem dated, which is pretty funny as I remember when the first one came out and how amazing everyone thought it looked. Too bad the new one sucks. Lets hope they make a faithful sequel for the xbox 360, and maybe fix up the controls a bit so I can have more fun with it on line.

And its about time! I have had this game since it was released years ago and actually pretty much forgot that I had it. I found it and put it in to see how far along I was and I was on the last level and wow it was extremely hard. I don’t remember anything about the plot because it was years ago since I last played it. I do remember that I really enjoyed the game even though it is pretty difficult. There are a ton of cool mini games to keep it fresh as you go along and the action is pretty good. It feels pretty good to finish this one after having it for so long. I might play it again sometime, maybe in another few years.
