I was exiting the city when a game caught my eyes. TERMINATOR SALVATION. I said yes, forked over 60 dollars for the thing and heres what I thought of it. GRAPHICS: Good. That is all. No. They are passable, no doubt about that. They dont match up to the recent Viva Pinata Trouble in Paradise but they do they're job. Show me bigass robots kicking my ass. Not the other way around. The textures are good in most places, but they are notably piss awful in certain places. The robots look great, with wonderful detail and if not a tad bit dated, robotic animations. Ironic eh? The humans themselves look pretty bad to be honest. The faces dont really move right, and the animations for them are even more robotic then the robots themselves, making me wonder which side i'm actually fighting for when I play the game. GAMEPLAY: The gameplay can be summed up in a few words. Wanted Weapons of Fate. You know cause Gears of War totally didnt start the whole decent cover system on the 360 thing. You masturbate your A button, and you cling against the nearest wall, sheltering yourself from any gunfire. You pop out, fuck up a robots robot face then go back into cover only to repeat. Its pretty damn repetive, but the on rails turret scenes try to hide that. They dont, as most of them last a total of 2 to 3 minutes. You have the option to play with a buddy on the couch (before or after the sub-par sex) but I do not on the other hand have the option to have sub-par sex with somebody across the planet due to the lack of any sort of online play in either the PS3 or 360 versions, which is a pain in the cock. The AI is good, perhaps a little too good. You die a lot due to the robots flaking you...due to good AI. I dunno where to go from here. SOUND: The sound is in a word: Rather Decent. Thats 2, but shut the hell up. Christan Bale is not the voice of John Conner, which is the most complete and utter bitch in the whole game except for the length of it itself. He doesnt sound like him, he doesnt look like him. The rest of the cast from the film is in tact as the people they play in the film itself. Gun shots sound like they should (AKA Like a GUN) and the explosions are ok. Nothing to get all horney about, but its nothing to get depressed about either. LASTING APPEAL: With no online, this game is only going to last you the 10 to 15 hours of the singleplayer. Wait now, thats what you'd THINK! The single player in this game is shorter than the time it takes to see the movie once. Its a max of 1 hour and 30 so mins. I could probably go outside, take a 5 minute shit and back, and my friend would be halfway done the game already. It isnt long, and the CO-OP makes it even shorter, thus making your Sub-Par sex come ever faster. OVERALL: I didnt HATE this game, but it wasent as good as the movie, nor does it even follow the story of the movie. Rent it, get your achivements or trophys or whatever side of the Homosexual Mobile your on, but dont buy it like I did. You'll probably regret it. GRAHPICS: 7.5 GAMEPLAY: 7.0 SOUND: 6.0 LASTING APPEAL: 3.0 OVERALL: 6.2 The sound is actually
