First, I played through the xbox version, but I'm sure it's the same as the pc version. I'm glad I didn't buy this as soon as it came out, because it isn't worth 50 dollars. Playing through it as niobe and ghost weren't equally frustrating. Ghost's missions were a tad bit more frustrating because of having to snipe and clear a path so niobe could drive. Having to suffer through it's repitative gameplay, beatup cops by repeating same moves over and over, just to see short fmvs that hardly tie into the mediocore film really sucks. I wish i felt like i really accomplished something, but your left like those animals in the hostess commercials, no cream filling. I hate to see a great chance to tie a game in with a movie fail so miserably. It's a rushed, overhyped game that will disappoint if you not a diehard fan of the matrix. If you can't stay away from matrix stuff, just rent it for your console.
