  1. Injects skillfully deployed melee combat infiltration, platforming and a wealth of well-honed play mechanics into a sortie-based operation that puts the player on the receiving end of intel direct from Section 9 itself. [Nov 2004, p.74]

    I just wanted to state that Ghost in Shell: Stand A Lone Complex was the best video game that I have ever played. Not only was it fun, but it was also challenging. What I liked best was the 3rd Person Shooter format with the elements of platforming (jumping, puzzles-lite), combined with run-n-gunning (instead of boring stealth), and beautiful visuals. The controller scheme was equally brilliant, although it did seem awkward at first. I look forward to a sequel. Expand

    I read the lowest rating by PSM... frankly it is crap. It sounds like whoever wrote it never actually played the game. For the stuff the character has to do, it must be put in third person or it would be impossible to do some of the things the character must do in a first person setting. Personally I believe it is a great game, it is hard and a bit irritating at first but once you get the hang of it one can really get involved. Expand

    One might think that since the GITS movie and Stand Alone Complex anime were so cool, that the game would shine. Expect only frustration. Jumping is beyond difficult, the effects seemingly random and expect to spend at least an hour trying to even get from the pier to the other side of the boxes. The one button for jumping, another for grapping control scheme is really annoying. Save your money and buy the anime, at least that you will enjoy, this is worthless and a waste of 50 dollars.
