Black is a first person shooter developed by Criterion Software (the team behind the Burnout series) for the PS2 and XBOX...
In Black u will play as Jack Keller a black ops soldier and make your way through Eastern Europe with tremendous gun power...

THE STORY: (the complete story is not mentioned coz it will spoil the game)

The story will start with the main character being brought into the interrogation room...an anonymous interrogator will begin to ask u questions about a terrorist group called Seventh Wave...the interrogator warns our character that if he does not cooperate he will be locked away in a prison for the rest of his life...and so Keller our main character tells his story taking us 4 days back....

WHAT'S THE DEAL:

You will be playing as Jack Keller a black ops soldier who tells his story take u 4 days back....this is a first person shooter and shooting what u will do...as any other FPS u gotta shoot ur way through the bad guys...like Burnout is the crazy one of the racing game ...Black is the crazy one out of the first person shooters...Black consist of 8 levels for which u r given a wide range of weaponry...Here is a complete list of the weapons...

GLOCK 19
Magnum
DC3 Elite
MP5 submachine gun
MAC-10 submachine gun
Uzi submachine gun
FN P90
M16 assault rifle
AK47 assault rifle
G36C assault rifle
Walther 2000 sniper rifle
Remington 870
Franchi SPAS-12
M249 SAW
RPG-7
M203 grenade launcher
Hand grenades

ABOUT THE GAME:
The game mechanics are solid and u won't have any trouble navigating ur character..
The main character consist of the basic controls....moving about, duckin etc....u can carry 2 weapons ur primary weapon and ur secondry weapon..and explosive ofcourse...all of which u can use 2 kill ur enemies and cause destruction...u can practically destroy anything...which can also help u to kill ur enemies fast...
your enemies AI level is not very imperesive...it even seems like sometimes that they want u to kill them...lol...u can adjust that by adjusting the difficulty level...

The graphics of the game r really awesome....the best thing about this game is its graphics....with great destructable locations...most of the times u will just enjoy the game by looking at it...the weapons r done really smoothly...the enemies look good aswell...

The sound of this game is excellent....from gun fires to car explosions every thing sound utterly real...

CONCLUSION:
This game looks stunning and is real fun to play with ....but the story's base is not very strong to keep the fun fresh u may loose interest at half point...
When u 1st start to play this game it will seem to be a really awesome game but close to end u will not be that impressed...

THE RATINGS:
Graphics: 9/10
Gameplay: 8/10
Value: 6/10
Variety: 6/10
Sound: 10/10
Fun Level/The Experience: 8/10

Even tho it cannot compare to games like Halo....It is the best first person shooter to be on the PS2....for Xbox users if u r lookin for some fun this is for u...

    Hi - this would have been a decent review had you avoided the use of textspeak (ur, u etc) - this isn't a chatroom - instead, you should be aiming to write using full words and sentences. Cheers
