An enjoyable, challenging, and generally good FPS game. The lack of multiplayer obviously lets it down, but this is still a great shooter.
The sad fact though is that this game could have been so much better, as it is just discouraging to see so much potential in a game, and then to not have it pull through like you would have hoped it would.

A good proof of concept, poor difficulty spike balancing, but I wish it had more love and a remake even.

The game is mostly fun. The uneven difficulty ruins the game from time to time. You can't save during game, so If John is killed, you go back to the beginning of the stage, or to a checkpoint. You should have no problem dispatching the enemies in the game, the auto-aim is probably the most lenient one out there. The shootouts are too easy with the auto-aim, and to hard with the manual-aim, as the crosshair automatically goes back to the centre of the screen.

The dynamic cinema cam uses fast cuts for a movielike feel. [Jan 2003, p.173]
The completely implausible story, the variety of situations McClane finds himself in and some genuinely funny dialog help elevate it out of the junk heap.
The idea of taking hostages in a first person shooter is novel, and stealth also can be interesting. None of that negates the impact the auto-aim has on the game, or how frustrating the controls can be. Throw in the terrible graphics, the linear missions, and the lack of any sort of multiplayer and Die Hard Vendetta is one of the worse Gamecube FPS’s.
Uneventful level desigin and poor AI. [Feb 2003, p.91]
The controls here are totally unsatisfying. Tack on narrow-minded gameplay and dim graphics and you've got a game that dies quite easily, actually.
Serviceble gunplay and story, but stealth, platforming and checkpoint placement are absolutely unacceptable. DO NOT try to play this game, you will feel like it's beatable but instead you'll just waste your time getting stuck or lost or instafailing stealth. Also it seems XBOX version can't be beaten, had to finish it on Gamecube.

Very disappointing game. I expected more because I got this game after sell my metroid prime. The graphics are not the best, the control is clunky. It has some humor, but this is not enough for a good experience. Buy it only if you are a fan of those movies.

Summary In Die Hard: Vendetta, tactics and stealth are just as important as having a big gun and being a quick shot. The story picks up five years after the movie Die Hard With a Vengeance, and you play as LA cop John McClane. Your daughter, now a full-grown woman on the police force, finds herself in danger, and it's up to you to save her. In y...
