    Waited four years and two platforms to play this, and I am very upset out it turned out. Three years ago, it would have been excellent, now its very out of date and very out of touch with todays shooters. But its still always fun to crank that time button and blast foes to an early grave. But thats wears thin when all else is rubbish! Barely a rental game.

    I like having the ability to control time and using the guns were incredibly satisfying as well. However, the awful story and poor multiplayer just ruins the game. The graphics are on the poor side as well.

    The clunky puzzles and mechanics often overwhelm any sort of enjoyment you might get out of confronting large squads of enemies, especially when the overall formula for the game follows a typical solve-the-puzzle-and-fight-wave-of-enemies-and-repeat design.

    The time travel themed story is ineffectively told and the enemy AI is rather brain-dead. You'll also face overwhelming numbers during most battles but the good thing is that your time powers provide a nice edge.

    A great deal of work was done to bring the look and feel of TimeShift up to date, though an equal amount of time should have been spent on the design and presentation.
