Unless you have been hiding under a rock since the 60’s, than I presume that you (the reader) has heard of Mission Impossible. The low-down on the story is that you step into the role of Ethan Hunt as he traverses the globe uncovering the insidious mysteries behind the malevolent Surma Corporation and its newly developed virus, ICEWorm, which allows Surma to break into any computer system in the world. Armed with the hyper-cool, super spy technology and weaponry from the Mission: Impossible movies, such as miniature remote-controlled devices, micro cameras, tranquilizing darts and character disguises, Hunt must lead his elite team in preventing Surma Corp. from achieving its ultimate goal: global domination.
Graphics:
The graphics are sleek with smooth animation allowing you to perform various moves including vaulting over objects, hand walking on ledges, wall hugging through tight spaces, crouching and creeping to keep a low profile, hand-over-hand manoeuvring on pipes and girders. In addition, players will be able to execute numerous stealth disabling, restraining and finishing manoeuvres on enemy characters.
Sound:
The background music is very atmospheric and sets the tone of the game just right. The only other sounds that can be heard in the game are the characters voices and the usual array of noises associated with all the high tech gadgetry.
Longevity:
The game is what you would call Open-Ended. You get to play the game the way you like to, whether that means shooting everyone on sight or use stealth to sneak behind guards and slip past them. The choices are endless and every way is utilised to the max. This means that every mission can be played differently as long as you achieve the objectives. With 5 main missions each containing several objectives this game could last for a while if you decide to play on the ‘Impossible’ setting but with no multi-player feature, you probably wouldn’t return to the game after completing it.
Round Up:
Very much in the same vein as Splinter Cell but holds it’s own with all the super-spy technology and weaponry. Easy to play as it comes with a tutorial. Unfortunately with no Live or multi-player feature, the game could be finish on a rental.
Pros:
- Excellent gadgets
- Open-Ended game play.
Cons:
