Enter The Matrix - Patches, No Reviews?

Posted by simoniker on Saturday May 17, 2003 @01:53PM from the enter-the-stealth-release dept.

Thanks to an anonymous reader for pointing out a patch for the PC version of Enter The Matrix, just a couple of days after its release, and a FAQ which rather horrifyingly orders you that "The Vampires should be dispatched in the rooms you find them in" to stop the game from crashing completely. If you add to this the almost complete lack of official reviews, do we get a still-decent game that simply happened to stealthily launch in the week of E3 (when nobody was around to review it), or a rushed license that's deliberately trying to take advantage of gamers who buy based on subject matter? Spoiler-free opinions welcome, especially from those who've bought the game.

People actually wasting money on this game or people actually liking it.

I wasn't about to drop cash on it but I wanted to see what it was like, so I did the next best thing. And I'm glad I didn't buy it. I installed it, played it for an hour, said to my self, "self, man this game really sucks". Then proceeded to uninstall it and throw-out the cd's I used to burn it. Waste of good plastic. Probably the only "coasters" I've ever burned on my PC.
