Spy Fiction

"It's not a total rip-off at all!"

Ok, before I start my review for Spy Fiction, I just want to say this is my first review so if you don't like it too bad because it's the only one.

Story-10/10
Not very original but very easy to understand. Terrorist group has a virus. You must stop them. No one will be confused like in MGS2. Just like anything else spy related.

Gameplay-9/10
Being able to disguise yourself as anyone else in the entire game is very fun. You have stealth camo from the beginning so you don't have to hunt down stupid dog-tags or frogs to get it. There aren't tons of weapons and gadgets but there are some good ones, like the toe blade that let you kill someone with kicks or the spider grips that let you hang from the ceiling. The only bad things are boss fights. There were only about three in the whole game but they were tough.

Characters-10/10
The characters were great. They had a fat scientist, crazy Asian girl, psycho former US agent bent on destroying US, Terrorist group leader whose father is said former agent. Lots of family relationships

Graphics-8/10
The graphics were pretty good. The little bit of water you go through is done well. The people's faces in cutscenes reflect their emotions. The fire you see sometimes doesn't look really good, but like in Grand Theft Auto you can't judge a game on graphics.

Sound-9/10
The sound is done well. When you haven't been seen the music is calm when you are spotted it speeds up and when you are in a disguise you can hear your heart beating. You can even unlock a jukebox at the end to listen to the awesome music

Re-playability-7/10
Once you've played through and gotten the alternate costumes for both characters the re-playability kind of dies off. You could try for faster times or something.

Final Evaluation-10/10 (Not an average)
I loved this game. I bought it for fifteen dollars at Gamestop. At that price you should definitely buy this game if you love spy games.Thanks for reading the first Spy Fiction review.
