Waking up one morning to find yourself face down on a beach with a bullet wound is not the best start to a day that anyone's ever had, but at the start of XIII, that's where you find yourself. Who are you? How did you get there? These questions and more are completely unanswerable because, to add to your misery, you also have amnesia. Before you have time to think, the lifeguard who has rescued you has been gunned down and someone seems intent on making sure that your day gets worse (and let's face it, there's really only one way that can happen!) Once you've despatched your attackers, you realise that there are an awful lot of unanswered questions and your ...  Read the complete review

Based on a French comic, I was interested by the cartoony style graphics & gameplay and that made my buy XIII when it was brand new & just released. Its a great game, you spend time trying to find out who you are and trying to uncover a conspiracy.

It wasn't a game I was ...  Read the complete review

In order to survive, you must discover your identity and your past, unravelling an enormous and disturbing conspiracy along the ...  Read the complete review

This is a very fun game as the gameplay is very well made like when you get a headshot with a knife it gives you three different angles appearing on the screen but are on the top of the screen leaving a large part still of your original view allowing you to play on without getting killed as you can't see what is happening. It does this with any weapon though but I found that the knife does it best as there is more visual effects. The games graphics are made extremely well to make it look like the comic it was based on and brings along the fun of the comic as there is no swearing young children can enjoy the game just like a comic. The only thing I had a problem with was .  Read the complete review
