  1. Looks and sounds awesome, plays really, really well. The controls are among the best I have seen on a console platform. Good cinematics, plot, atmosphere... A top game. [Mar. 05]
  2. The skillfully crafted Project: Snowblind calls on the best of what we enjoy about the genre, but the game feels nicely removed from the norm. [March 2005, p.52]
  3. The single-player campaign is as intense as we've ever played on the Xbox, although it doesn't last too long (anywhere from 7-10 hours depending on your skill level). The multiplayer component can hold its own with the "Halo 2"'s and "Rainbow Six"'s of the world.
  4. While Snowblind never truly escapes the feeling of being a well-dressed, derivative run'n'gun shooter, it never fails to get the running and gunning right, and in that respect, at least, it's a sound success. [March 2005, p.86]

    "It's no Halo 2." True. It's better. Halo 2 is the most over-rated game of all time: a truely awful game that I can't bear to play (the first 2 levels alone should indicate how dire it all is) and Halo 1 is my all-time fave. PS is nothing like Halo 1 or 2 - it is a straight action game, run and gun, loads of weapons, full on action and tremendous fun. There are almost too many weapons, but they are all cool - the pistol fires rockets, the shotgun fires exploding pellets etc. Great controls and HUDs. The graphics are okay - I would have preferred a more techy sci-fi feel liek Blade Runner, but still nice. The cut scenes are a bit dodgy - mouth mechanics are poor, but don't hurt at all. Lots of variety - controlling robots, driving armoured cars, sneaking around vents etc. Not as good as Halo 1, Half-Life 2, Riddick or Oddworld: Strangers Wrath, but still a great laugh and since I only paid NZ$20 brilliant value.

    Entertaining single player with great weaponery, which makes you go on a power trip like mr bush! What drags the score down is no co-op, online is shocking and the fact that it has more bugs than what were in sadams office! A shame really but still way better than halo 2 single player. Expand

    I think this game is very much over-rated... single-player game is ok... but just ok... but Live-game is just horrible, it really sucks... it's like playing game from 1980's... and everytime i've tried, only 1-2 servers. Expand
