A solid franchise-based AA title.

I've watched Terminator 2 a hundred times when I was a kid. And I've got to say that this game sits close to it in terms of atmosphere. Post-apocalyptic experience on the ruins of human civilization.

Pros:
  • Great atmosphere, true to the first two movies.
  • Awesome music, again, true to the first two movies.
  • Terminators give you the creeps at some moments. As it should be.
  • Decent challenge on normal difficulty (played with controller).
  • Liked the overall sound design. Mainly because of the pew-pew-pew that plasma guns make :) Just like in the movies.
  • Night levels! The atmosphere...
  • The story gets a bit dark at times as it should be.
  • The ending is...well, you've gotta see it for yourself.
TU-DUN-TUN-TU-DUN. TU-DUN-TUN-TU-DUN.

Cons:
  • AI is rather stupid.
  • Some parts of the game are a bit boring at times.
  • Character (human) animation is not good. That being said, don't forget that it's AA title.

Overall:

Good AA shooter, that reminds me of Metro (but with a lesser budget) at times. Plus, it's close to the source material. If you like old Terminator movies, this game is a must-buy.
