Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever

Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever tries to aim for first-person corridor shooter action on the Game Boy Advance.

Ballistics: Ecks vs. Sever is loosely based on the recent short-lived movie starring Antonio Banderas. It?s an ambitious corridor shooter that features over 24 single-player missions and various multiplayer games; however, all of its many options are hampered by muddy graphics that are hindered even more by the GBA?s low contrast LCD screen.

It?s often difficult to discern targets and various items amidst the background, and enemies blur into giant pixels when approached up close. No matter how many different weapons, rooms, or enemies are in store, they are all rendered ineffective if you can?t see them?especially in a shooting game where reflexes are key. Easy-to-learn controls and an adequate soundtrack can?t make up for the graphical shortcomings. This shooter misses the fun target.
