Advantages: Great gameplay, variety of levels, challenges and modes, fantastic multi-player

Disadvantages: No online

This is the third game in a very popular series. I warn you this isn't a realistic first person shooter but it sure is fun. This is a bit of an older game so don't expect HD graphics but they have released teaser pics for the next game so watch out for that as well. Don't worry even if you haven't played the previous games the story is pretty easy to follow and you can always look it up on the internet anyway. Basically you play as Cortez who has recently returned to his home planet having successfully retrieved the time crystals. With these crystals he can go back in time so his goal is to go back and find out what caused the creation of the Timesplitters and also to stop it. Each level is set in a different time period and you usually always have a partner either computer controlled or another person controlling them.

There is also an arcade league mode where you have to play death matches etc. and achieve enough points to get awards. There are also loads of challenges to complete with the weirdest being remote controlled cat racing. When you complete story levels, challenges and arcade mode you unlock new characters and there are a lot of them new and old. There is also a custom level creator.

But where Timesplitters really shines is the multiplayer. Even with two human players it is loads of fun, with so many different modes, customisable character lists, customisable weapon lists, many levels and of course the choice of playing as characters such as the dinosaur or the gingerbread man. I literally drool when I think of the likely prospect of online play.

Get this game now, it is brilliant. It will keep you playing for hours and with so many challenges and difficulty modes and also probably one of the best console multiplayer modes it is a must buy. The story isn't half bad either.

Summary: One of my favourite games of all time
