If you play this game focusing only on its single-player mode, you might end up disappointed, as the campaign is short, features a limited number of levels, and feels somewhat underwhelming. That said, it still offers a fun and dynamic shooting system, making it enjoyable enough to play through, even if it falls well short of the second and third installments. My rating: ***

Прошел оригинальный timesplitters 2000 года на эмуляторе ps 2. Это одна из первых игр на вторую плойку и это просто нереальный кусок помоев. Система прицеливания такая же как и в шутерах на n64 – то есть тотальный аим ассист. Графоний по меркам пс 2 супер слабый, однако локации прикольные и разнообразные. Основная проблема игры – в игре где-то 6-7 уровней каждый из которых проходится минут за 10-15, то есть за 1.5 часа практически любой игрок уже закончит прохождение… если бы мне в 2000м году такое продали, я бы посчитал что меня знатно наебали. Более того, геймплей сверх примитивный, на каждом уровне надо найти какую-то дрисню и убежать, на этом всё. Даже Wolfenstein 3D 1992 года был ну просто верхом геймдизайна в рамках жанра fps. Несмотря на то что это вроде бы одна из очень видных серий игр на вторую плойку, первая её часть это полный кал 2/10.

Goldeneye mixed with OG doom. It might have been cool when it released but now it's not fun as a first timer

The story is non existent but it was fun seeing things unlock with every stage completed. The amount of characters and goodies you'd unlock for multiplayer was cool. The map maker is surprisingly good for the time and I had a bit of fun playing it with a friend. The AI is bs on hard and some stages just became an unfun maze on hard as well. A decent launch title for the time it came out but lacks really anything nowadays unless you want to play multiplayer, which the sequel would probably be better with anyway.

Graphics are rough, it’s pretty buggy at times, and I was never a fan of the Goldeneye FPS mechanics. But I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have a good time beating this game. It’s corny, but it’s charming for its time!

Fun first person shooter with interesting enemies and time lines to play through just unfortunately the characters you play make no difference to your experience and there is zero storyline it acts more of a fun arcade game to play with friends rather than yourself but gameplay is very well done and easy to play

FPS in which you battle through the ages against zombies, mutants and aliens with a variety of time-appropriate weaponry and hordes of enemies to dispatch. Its simple, linear levels, cartoony graphics and arcade sensibilities make it almost feel like a shooting gallery game that's come off the rails, but it's a lot of fun to play.

It's easy to see the Golden Eye and Perfect Dark DNA sewn into this one, making it a fairly solid FPS of the time. However, as good as the shooting is, it's not attached to anything else worth while. Even though I found the overall experience quiet shallow, I was surprised to hear that this was a launch title for the PS2. This would have been a great way to show off the systems performance through graphics, sound and game-play. Unfortunately, even though the visuals and game-play run very nicely, they don't have much depth. Each level layout is fairly basic. The game-play consists of running from point A to B and back while shooting everything in between. And there is no real story to tie everything together. In the end, this was just a very expensive demo to show off what the hardware could do. Even though there isn't much to this one, it is good to see the foundation of what future games in the series would become. There isn't much here other than a nostalgia trip and can be easily avoided to make way for better FPS. In saying all that, the multiplayer support is next to none and should be considered if that's what you are looking for.

TimeSplitters is a pretty cool game to say the least. The camera feels a bit awkward to control at first, but once you get used to it things will be a hassle.

My first fps game , Did things that still makes me go back to this game is that timber it feels like you're running 60 mile an hour, The hardest difficulty is still at the challenge Even if most of the Challenge is about remembering where every enemy is, Music is good and memorable I still have it in my head 17 years after I played it for the first time , And when you play multiplayer daddy's where the funniest even if the single player is fun the multiplayer is worth it if you can kidnap some friends to play it , I would recommended it dirt cheap

Unfortunately for me I only lasted 10 minutes playing this. The likely reason is that it is 2019 and this game has been surpassed by too many new titles in the genre. If you are a fan of retro gaming I wouldn't say this is bad in fact it has a lot of charm however I was immediately and solely turned off by the aiming dynamics. There are not enough options and in this game I was frustrated by the rudimentary shooting system. If I had played this in 2000 when it came out I think I would rate the game much higher but again unfortunately I cannot make this game newer than it actually is and had to shelve it quite early after meticulously experimenting with the options and finding none comparable to next generation. I like the graphical style that is fine I just have too huge a list of games to play through that this does not merit going back in time. From my mere 10 minutes this game really felt like a late playstation 1 title. I still enjoy many ps2 shooters but perhaps cd based games are no longer compatible with me.

One of the best games I've ever played, if you have a PS2 you must get this game along with the second and I regret not saving my Playstation 2. Timesplitters is my most played game with my brother during my childhood, so many memories of an awesome game.

Frantic FPS action. Me and my friends spent hours upon hours of hilarious multiplayer fun on this game. Story mode also very fun. ( -1 for there being almost no 'story!)

TimeSplitters is a great arcade shooter. The game feels and plays like Goldeneye 007 on the Nintendo 64 but there are differences. TimeSplitters story isn't really important but you go to different time era's (ancient Egypt, the future etc) and bring back certain objects like a relic or a briefcase to a certain spot while shooting at enemies who try to stop you. On the way, you use a variety of weapons to shoot anyone who gets in your way. The so called TimeSpliters try to stop you bringing back the object to the end of the level. The game play is fast and furious and moves at a great pace. The level designs are great: Each level has a distinctive look to it depending on the era like Egypt or Futuristic and this is reflected in the weapons you can choose from in the level which are great to use. Free Radical Design (Now Crytek UK) have created some interesting characters to choose from for each level. The game however can be hard (even on Medium difficulty) and you may find your self just replaying a level over and over again until you know where the enemies spawn. The music is fantastic and well composed; it fits each level (era) like a glove. I haven't tried the multiplayer but I've heard its great. After the campaign, there are some challenges to do which will keep you going for a while. TimeSplitters is a really good PlayStation 2 game and needs to be in each persons shooter collection!
