Oh, what to say about this game. It's a first person shooter. Well, it's realistic, not quite for the better, but still. Um, it doesn't crash your console, or at least, it didn't crash mine, that's always a good thing. Lets get the graphics and sound out of the way. The graphics aren't horrible, far from it, but they aren't very.... good. With graphics that aren't great, you expect the game to run well, right? Well, sadly that isn't the case here, the game isn't really laggy, but it feels somewhat slow. The sound is very average, the same stuff you hear in most shooting games.
Now to the controls. The movement is not very responsive. You can't go a tiny bit, you always take a big step. Another annoying thing is you change directions very slowly because you can't change mid step. This is a big deal considering you can be killed in a few shots. Aiming is also slow and feels clunky. It's hard to move the aim just a bit.
Finally, onto the gameplay. Needless to say, it's bad. The enemies can shoot you from a mile away, and they're very accurate. There's also a training mode where you shoot targets! How exciting. Oh, wait, here's the best part, the multiplayer. There are barely anyone playing. I found one match and it was already in progress, with 4 players. This game supports sixteen player co-op. Thats not possible because it seems the entire population of the game CONSISTS OF 4 PEOPLE.
Don't play this game, don't rent this game, and don't even look at the box too long, you will probably go blind.
I give it a 2/10.
Cheers,

Mythos has been shut down.
I'm a little late, but yeah, Mythos, the action mmorpg from Flagship studios is closed indefinitely. I was in the closed beta, and its sad to see it go before it was even released to the public. It was my favorite free mmo. I think there transferring it to a Korean company or something. They will probably change it a lot though. Well, maybe people will get better at making free mmo's and we will see more like Mythos.
