Timesplitters will split your wig.....

...with joy! Free Radical has made the classic first person shooter for the Nintendo 64: Goldeneye. Timesplitters 2: The game had a very engaging and addictive multiplayer component which has been emulated by many first person shooters of today. Well, it's the next generation, and on the Gamecube, it's one of the few first person shooters that I've purchased for it. This game is great. It's very addictive, has about a hundred unlockable character, many unique stages and challenges and has an unmatched amount of customization options. The graphics are a bit cartoony, but it is suitable for the type of fast paced action that this game provides. You can easily spend hours upon hours just playing through the sheer amount of modes, and features. The feature that this game is crowned for the most, however is its multiplayer. The numerous characters and customization options work best here and there are so many modes, including the regulars, like capture the flag, deathmatch, king of the hill, team deathmatch...even though some have different tweaks to their names (capture the bag) it won't matter with other additions like assuault and their. This game is a unique gem, and I implore you play it.

fantastic fps

Timesplitters 2 is a first person shooter, made by free radical, which is a company started by x Rare employees, many of which worked on Goldeneye on the n64. The games pedigree becomes apparent very fast while looking though the opening options screen, timesplitters 2 has masses of options ranging from normal campaign with different difficulties, 2 player co-op, mission mode, and hoards of different multiplayer scenarios. The one player mode in this game is excellent, each level is varied and never gets to the stage where it feels old, the action moves along very fast, and when you put it on different difficulty levels the game actually changes giving new objectives and forcing the player to change their tactics. The only real issue with the campaign mode is the lack of any real coherent story to tie everything together, which to be honest didn't bother to much. As a multiplayer game this is an awesome classic, with so many options available, including a map editor, it will take a long time to get bored with this game. This is actually i beleive my own personall favourite fps on any system it is that good.

Tommy Guns and Golems and Timesplitters, oh my!

It's no coincidence that this game reeks of Goldeneye - it was made by some of the same people. It's also no coincidence that they made this game just as good as Goldeneye was. With amazing versatility and fun gameplay, this was one of the best first-person shooters on the Gamecube, and one that warrants many a replay, especially with a multiplayer mode where you can design your own levels.

The Best FPS

This game is one of the best FPS games I've ever played! It is totally amazing! It has great looking characters and the controls are very easy! The multiplayer is great, and it has awesome levels! However, the Story mode is lacking fun, it's too simple and not complex. But the MapMaker replaces the Story Mode, because it actually allows you to create your own story and multiplayer levels! So I recommend buying this game!

TS: 2 = Gaming Greatness

Timesplitters 2 deserves much more credit then it recieved from players. I mean what gamer doesn't want to shoot it out in the old west, on a spaceship, and inside a nightclub? I mean you can even shoot monkeys for God's Sake!!! Another feature i think is great about TS:2 is the multiplayer stats. I've always loved looking at my stats from multiplayer and single player games (it all started on Perfect Dark for the N64). The one thing its missing i think is a multipayer rank, your rank should go up as you play more games and get more kills. One thing that i didn't really like was the position on the paddle for switching weapons. The lower D-Pad doesn't really make it easy to move and switch weapons at the same time. So I gave TS:2 a 4.5 because its multiplayer games are top notch, but its single player could include a little more action.
