Guide to 24 The Game on the PlayStation 2
So you think you want to be Jack Bauer.....
Jack Bauer, Field agent in the Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU) has had worse days than most. Over the course of 48 hours Jack has seen his daughter and wife kidnapped by terrorists, prevented a presidential candidates assassination attempt, found his wife dead after being murdered by a colleague and averted a nuclear bomb being detonated on US soil.
This is where 24:The Game picks up. Between seasons 2 and 3 of the TV show the game uses the same 'real time' format that has made the TV series so successful. Including at least 16 actors voices from the TV series on the game it also uses all the visual formats, original musical score and revolves around a storyline created especially for the game by the 24 creative team.
You begin the game playing as Jack Bauer leading a team of SWAT agents onto a cargo ship in search of Ricin being smuggled into the USA to be used in a terrorist attack.
The gameplay is just as fast paced as the show. You play not only as Jack but as many other of the popular leading charmacters from the show including Tony Almeida, Michelle Dessler, Chase Edmunds and Kim Bauer. The great advantage of playing all of these characters is that it opens up so many levels of gameplay. Third person shooter levels and sniper attacks with Jack, Stealth and infiltration with Chase and Kim. Not to mention the puzzles, Hacking, driving and the amazing interregation missions. Unfortunatly if you are like me and driving games aren't your strongest point it makes these missions hard - one took at least 10 attempts to get it cracked!! However with such wide variety - its never boring and the 58 missions flow easily from one to the next just like the show.
Downsides? Well it has to be the controls. As i mentioned before im not good with driving games - mainly due to the controls and this game doesnt help me change my mind. They can be jumpy and touchy. The dodgy camera angles also infuriate at times especially in the stealth and 3rd person shooting missions.
24:The Game is true enough to the show to be a must have for any fan or Jack Bauer wannabe. The replay potential is great as gaining high scores on each mission unlocks bonus features including cast and crew interviews, season trailers etc. In fact having completed it once im now working through my , ahem, poorer missions to boost the extras! It also has enough action and variety to keep even non fans entertained.
