Fracture


Manufacturer: Lucas Arts Entertainment
Fracture advances players to the year 2161, where the effects of global warming have altered the planet's landscape, and a clash in ideologies over human enhancement places society on the threshold of war. In utilizing the core gameplay mechanic of Fracture, a destructive next-generation technology known as Terrain Deformation, players are equipped with an arsenal of futuristic weaponry to strategically reshape their surroundings on the fly. Every action they perform dynamically reshapes the earth in ways no videogame has ever seen. Players set foot on the frontlines of this epic conflict in the role of Jet Brody, a demolitions expert fighting for the Atlantic Alliance, who rely upon cybernetic enhancement. Pitted against the genetically enhanced soldiers of the Pacifican army, players will experience a revolution in 22nd-century warfare. When Brody throws a tectonic grenade onto a level battlefield, the ground blasts upward providing access to otherwise unreachable areas or providing cover against approaching enemies. Surrounded on all sides by Pacifican forces, Brody heaves a vortex grenade, creating a swirling tornado-like mass of boulder, dirt and debris to dispatch his foes. These are just a few samples of the possibilities for Terrain Deformation. Players not only change the battlefield - they change the face of the battle itself. Reshape the battlefield with terrain shattering weapons: Experience a dynamic battlefield that is unique every time you play. Use never-before-seen weapons to fracture, crater, freeze, or elevate the earth. Unleash a subterranean torpedo toward your enemy and literally blast the earth from beneath his feet. For the first time, players can mold a war zone for an advantage to push the attack or mount a defense. Experience a story of betrayal and revenge: Follow the journey of a patriotic Atlantic Alliance soldier when an act of treason launches him into the lethal battlefield of the 22nd century, as forces wage a battle of genetics vs. cybernetics. In a war that divides loyalties and tests the bonds of country and family, this soldier's discoveries will ultimately decide the fate of North America and perhaps the world. Multi-player & co-operative play allows the terrain deforming battles to rage on: Choose the side of the genetically enhanced Pacificans or the cybernetically powerful Atlantic Alliance, then jump online and exploit your chosen sides advantages as Terrain Deformation and Genetic vs. Cybernetic elements allow for endless hours of fun with friends online. Fight for control of familiar locations and landmarks: The last World Wars were fought in Europe, but the next great global war will be fought on American soil. Battle in famous locations across the United States. Defend the Atlantic Alliance in Washington, DC, fight the decisive battle for control of Pacifica in the basin of the now-empty San Francisco bay and uncover the secret that will determine the world's fate in the Southwest Desert.

Kinda tedious
The game lacks a sense of viscerality when killing off enemies and the weapons that you use for kills are not all that exciting either. This game has the feel of something that was decided upon in a corporate boardroom, while the environment altering weapons are kinda cool, the shooting and killing part are very lacking, and not all that satisfying. The ai seems like it is on crack in this game as they pretty much run all over the place and the scenarios for killing them is tediously repetitive. But what do you expect out of a less then 5 dollar game.

Big letdown
Lucas Arts is great when it comes to Star Wars games but outside of that they just don't deliver. Fracture has a unique premise with the ability to use terrain altering weapons. However these get really repetative and downright boring very quickly. And for some reason on the easiest setting they throw enemies at you left and right so fast that it makes it extremely difficult to complete your objectives. Most of the terrain weapons consist of either raising or lowering the ground in someway. If you're looking for some great FPS action then pick up a copy of Call of Duty (doesn't matter which one) and skip this game altogether.

Decent shooter game with different twist
Fracture was a pretty good game. The ability to manipulate the terrain was a cool new concept, but by the end of the game the novelty wore off. No regrets to buying it, but certainly not a best-seller!

PURE FUN!
At first i didnt like the game, probably because it was too easy. So i played it on hard and then i found myself hooked on it. The game is well worth the asking price. it is a long game too, which is great. if you want to play something unique and challenging this game is for you!

Could have been better
This game has overall great graphics and OK story. The problem of this game is the experience of the gameplay: when you shoot the enemies you have to shoot like a 100 shots so you can hit them because the shots go everywhere but where they need to go. I mis-spent my money on this...
