Aeon Flux

"A Solid Game"

INTRO
I just realized today why I play so many movie games. Cause they cheap. They come out with a big price tag, then with in matter of no time they go down real fast. This one you can find it used for fewer than 20 bucks maybe new too for 20 bucks. Anyway, I didn't buy this game; a friend of mine passed it along after he got through with it. When he gave it to me I knew this had to be bad. After all no one gives away a good game. To my shock, it was pretty dam good. I couldn't believe it. Even the story was great. I heard it is just like the movie, so any one that never saw this movie would love the story. Otherwise, you know what's going to happen from start to finish.

GAME PLAY
The game play is very good. It's like you are getting three games in one. You have lots of amazing acrobatics you can do, hand to hand combat, and first person shooter. You can't complain about the variety of game playing. This is pretty dam good, and fun too. Also some platform work too. The controls are kind of tricky to learn at first, put once you learned them its pretty much easy street from here. The levels start out very easy, and get crazy hard at the end. So this game will keep you busy for awhile if you like it. I highly recommend this to people that never saw the movie. For the rest of you, if you like Aeon Flux that much, feel free to play it, you will find some good things about her and this game.

APPEARANCE
Surprisingly, the graphics in this game are not too good. This is kind of rare for a xbox game. I expect nothing-put top of the line from xbox. But this game falls short, I must say at best it is just average, and I'm being generous. I don't know what happened to the crisp and high detailed graphics in all those other xbox games. I guess you can't have everything in a video game. At least the sound effects and background music are nice. Charlie Theron's voice sounds like it does and should sound like.

OVERALL
After I played this game I went and saw the movie, and it was just as good as the game. The movie was boring; cause I knew what was going to happen, and it did same way as the game described the ending. So it wasn't all that fun. For all you video gamers out there, if you are looking for a movie game worth your while, this is one of them.
