Fracture (Sony Playstation 3, 2008)

I bought this game because it was made by Lucas Arts (Jedi Knight & Dark Forces series) & Day 1 Studios (Mech Assault & Mech Warrior). In my opinion, these companies have made some really great games in the past so I thought that this would be a good one too. I also got this game because at the time I paid a great price for it ($25). I wouldn't have paid full price for it & if I had I would've been very disappointed.

WHAT I HATED
•Weak storyline because it relied too heavily on the great graphics.
• Game is your basic military shooter getting you to go after objectives & blast your way through hundreds of enemies until you reach the next checkpoint.
•The story lacks originality. It involves “alien-like” creatures who want to take over the Earth or enslave humanity.
•The game should have also had better boss battles.
•I was disappointed in the fact that for all the work you go through to find the data cells there were no unlockables besides unlocking weapons at a testing facility.

WHAT WAS IN BETWEEN HATE & LIKE
•The game has 3 different locations, which wasn't bad but I would have liked to have seen 4 or 5 locations

WHAT I LIKED
•Game Mechanics & Graphics are definitely next gen material.
•The lack of foul language, which is refreshing for everyone & not just kids.
•The game play similar to Halo (realism towards weapons) & Jedi Knight (puzzles)

RATINGS (best out of 5)
Graphics = 5
Price ($20 or less) = 5
Game Play = 4
Story = 2
Unlockables = 1

I’m giving the game an overall score of 3 out of 5 due to the quality of the graphics & the price at which I obtained it. But if I had paid full price for it I would have given it a 1 or 2 out of 5 which has been reflected in the rating score I gave it.

This game is a good example of what happens when you rush games.
C - D game.
The game lags in single player mode.
Ammo Is very limited and you get stuck shooting the ground with a ground raiser to kill people, yet it doesn't kill them.
The story is dull and slapped together ( take out the turrets, destroy the center core, destroy more turrets, kill unending always loaded enemies, 1 vs. 50 at a time.)
WORST LUCASARTS game ever!
THERE IS NOBODY ONLINE = WASTE OF MY TIME

Just point and laugh at this junk.

Great Game lots of different weapons,cool concept,challenging,With HD tv this game would have gotten an Excellent rating from me...Seemed dark on my projection tv.This Is a FUN game well worth the Price.****4stars

I like the gameplay and control setup, although a little different. The game allows you to alter terrain during gameplay and has some challenging foes. Online play is also entertaining.

LOTS OF FPS SHOOTERS OUT THERE. THIS ONE DIFFERS SINCE YOU CAN RASIE OR LOWER THE TERRAIN FOR PROTECTION OR TO REACH AREAS - eg. LOWER GROUND TO REVEIL A TUNNEL TO GO THRU - RAISE GROUND AS A PROTECTION BARRIER OR TO REACH SAY, A 2nd STORY OF A BUILDING, ETC. GRAPHICS ARE MODERATE BUT THE GAMEPLAY MAKES UP FOR THAT. PRICE POINT FOR THIS GAME IS SO LOW, YOU CANT GO WRONG!
