The team that brought you GoldenEye has listened to your comments and is beefing up the single-player mode in the sequel to the PS2�s first big FPS.

Time-hopping FPS action is coming your way again in Eidos�s TimeSplitters 2. Creatures from another dimension are monkeying with our timeline again, and it will be up to you to stop them by taking control of characters from throughout time. Whereas last year�s model�s single-player game was simply training for multiplayer mode, this year�s will engage you in its story and goals�or at least that�s what developer Free Radical hopes.

Free Radical includes a number of people who worked on Rare�s GoldenEye 007. The preview version had a palpable N64 Bond feel, down to the way you reloaded weapons and interacted with objects. The single-player demo even took place in and around a dam in Russia�007 vets will understand why that�s significant. You�ll see GoldenEye�s influence in spades in TimeSplitters 2�s single-player mode, which is definitely a good thing.

If Free Radical can make good on its promise of a rich single-player game, you�ll have another reason to go back in time.
