James Cameron's Dark Angel - Xbox

The game basically consists of fighting and more fighting, using basic repeated button taps for kicks and punches, all leading up to a rather dull rage attack. The inclusion of a stealth element to the game play does nothing to lift the tedium; it has all the hallmarks of Metal Gear Solid and Splinter Cell but none of the sophistication. You do have an added first-person sniper attack that enables you to zoom in and take out baddies with a limited amount of fuss.

Unfortunately Dark Angel is a game that has no real wow factor; it has nothing new to offer and leaves you feeling unimpressed and disappointed. It may well appeal to fans of the series or Jessica Alba, but even that's stretching it. --Rob Holiday
