  1. With its archaic graphics, dull missions and a flawed game balance, only the multi-player part saves this game from being a total disappointment. But that alone can't justify its existence.
  2. Xtreme 2 succeeds as a budget game - it just doesn't cater to any audience in particular. A lack of focus is the overarching problem with this decent budget title.
  3. This "xtremely" forgettable first-person shooter doesn't excel at anything.
  4. 48
    The only thing that's "xtreme" about this game is how extremely mediocre it is. The missions are uninspired, the authenticity is lacking, the servers are under-populated but, hey, at least it looks dated, right?
  5. This game's failure was perfectly described back in 1865 by Lewis Carroll: "Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that!" You can't stop the progress.
  6. A general lack of polish that makes me wonder if NovaLogic even care about the games they make any more. [Dec 2009, p.74]
  7. Boring and repetitive, even in multiplayer. [Sept 2009, p.68]

  1. Horrible game balance. Massive hit boxes. Overpowered vehicles to the max. Do not buy this game. Shouldn't even be installed on your computer. Waste of hardrive space. Full Review »
  2. I m giving 6 out of 10 for it Graphics:- Pretty nice graphics and more attractive than previous versions.Trees,grass,river everything is good.Trees are of similar type that 1 prob i noticed.But the real problem lies in building.Building n house seems to be of paper made and look very dull.Also vehicles heli,car,boat etc not so gud.Charecter facer similar and not strength.Overall i m giving a medium rating for its graphics Game play:- Gun r not surface finish,no recoils while shooting.right click zooming is excellent.Binocular also gud.One major problem in game play is "No proper proggramming".What i say means just follow walkthrough on the campaign "monsoon Alley" second mission "barricade". After completing all objectives me(bravo) walk to the river side.THE HELICOPTER DOESN'T COMING DOWN' .this is a real problem that i faced.Finally i restartd the mission then at tthe end helicopter came down.and level completed successfully.Also in the same mission "barricade" i destroyed 1 old boat barricade with c4 charger.so not enogh gape for the bravos boat to go with.but whn i jump on to the boat it start running and hit on the bridge piller.and nothing happens.there also i restarted the game.Very bad.

    Quite possibly the worst shooter ive played in my gaming career. I was a fan of DF 1 2 3 LW BHD and JO. But seriously novalogic, extreme 1 and 2 are absolute garbage. Stay away from novalogic kids. Full Review »
