  1. It looks sharp and provides a good degree of challenge. [July 2002, p.83]
  2. 80
    It could've been called "EndCrisis" or "TimeGame," but there's still enough of a difference to warrant interest from light-gun gamers.
  3. It’s an average gun game that fans of the under-supported genre who are tired of "Time Crisis 2" will get some fun from, but it’s no classic.
  4. 70
    While not as deep or fine-tuned as it could have been, Endgame is quite fun in a low-budget action movie kind of way.
  5. It's "Time Crisis II," only not quite. [August 2002, p.20]
  6. Though the in-game graphics and animated cut-scenes are quite nice in Endgame, the game is not entirely polished.
  7. A light gun game that falls flat on its face.
  8. People without a passion for shooting fake guns at their television sets probably won't find much to like.
  9. Fans of light-gunners won’t find all the bells and whistles in "Time Crisis 2," but they will find a game that is thankfully much longer than TC2 with just as much action.
  10. You're contantly shooting the same enemies over and over in rather dull environments, only to come upon completely lackluster bosses. [August 2002, p.107]
  11. 35
    The game is sloppily made...a weak effort in every facet of its creation.
  12. A tamer, single-player "Time Crisis 2" with fewer unique enemies and lamer bosses. [August 2002, p.124]

    Decent effort, not quite Time Crisis Quality but a good stress release all the same.

    Im A Huge Fan Of The Time Crisis Series And Broke Off To Try This And Loved It. Altho The Storyline Is Somewhat Thin Its A Challenging , Nice Looking , Fun Game Oh If You Happen To Unlock The 2 Gun Mode And Have 2 Guns Playing It One Player With A Gun In Each Hand Is A Gem Of An Experience!

    As good as any lightgun game I've played, nice graphics, not too tough to start with but gets increasingly harder as the game progresses, good fun and just what i need after a hard day's work to get rid of stress by blasting things to bits. Full Review »
