DO NOT BUY-FILLED WITH BUGS
We have a fairly new computer with windows xp and a graphics card which meets the specs listed on the box and we cannot get this game to run. It installs, but then when you ask it to run, it flashes for a second and then dies. After doing some extensive research this is a common problem. Some people have managed to tweak their computers in order to get this game to run. We have not. I'd seriously advise against wasting any money on this game. Even with the latest patches, we still cannot get it to run. This is apparently what is happening generally when attempting to adapt xbox/playstation games for the computer- they are sent out there with a lot of bugs. Good luck!

Excellent for the Price ...
You can't go wrong with this first person shooter Half-Life2 knock-off. Graphics are decent, sound is good, controls and gameplay are intuitive ... and for this low price, it's agreat deal. This game runs great on my older XP computer. Highly recommended.

For the bargin bin price worth picking up
Fun and straight forward FPS shooter. Looks great, even with high settings, vsync on and at decent display resolution (I think 1680x1050) on a Dell 24" WS LCD frame-rates never drop to unplayable, actually I don't think it ever dipped lower than 50 fps with lots going on. Visuals are very nice clean looking from what I can recall. Reminds me of DOOM 3 and F.E.A.R. (Sierra). Also plays, looks and feels like a combination of those two games. Time altering abilities, corridor exploration with some open space segments pathing, and smooth responsive gameplay.
My PC setting isn't the latest but it's still adequate for this and most games. I'm running game with Window XP SP3, EVGA NF4 motherboard, AMD Opteron 185 2.6GHz Skt 939 CPU, DDR400 PC3200 400MHz 1GBx2 CL2.5 in Dual Channel, Seagate 160GB HDD SATA1 and MSI GF 8800GT OC x2 SLI. In game graphic advance settings didn't have a lot of options or I couldn't find them such as application control Anti-Aliasing. Buyers might want to see recommended PC specs before purchasing to ensure their PC can run game.
Amazon game box picture shows CD, but I received DVD edition. Download latest patch (1.2) asap from game website. At its current bargin bin price definitely worth picking up for PC gamers in need of a new game. For me it beats paying $20 more for a PS3 copy when my PC can run it just fine.

Timeshift
The game is alright. FPS with a little something extra. Its beautiful. I dont like the idea of solely relying on time shifting capabilities though. you cant win without using them every 3 seconds. you can barely fight without it.
Despite that, looks good and its innovative to a point.
