hmm... this game must have been created as a "The worst pile of garbage, glitched game in world" joke to a company friend, but it accidently was released. or maybe the creators were just stoned and drunk. This game has crap graphics, it uses the AOL buddy log-on sound when you open doors and it is just horribly glitched beyond the point of humor. the auto-aim system is horribly glitched, the game has a crappy plot and the voice acting is awful making the main character sound retarded (literally). alot of the time the game glitches and causes it so you can't continue. it has awful AI and the dual gun thing looks dumb, as well as the cheap slo-mo crap (which isn't even impressive cause the controls are so sluggish). this game is worthless, and completely utter trash and unless you like being frustrated by glitches every second, play it, but this game sucks! don't listen to gamer-no-how he is either lying or he just has sever fetal-alohol syndrome; this game is a waste of money, space on earth and life to those who play it times 10 to the third power. Parents, if your kids want this game, slap them and say "NO!".

Good Concepts, Hard Controls....ONLY 4 AVID GAMERS

1st of all i'd like to say I personally think this game is the best "underrated game" out there.

I'd like to start off by saying that this game is not for the average gamer. The control scheme is way too complex for any child too understand. Personally i found this too be the toughest Xbox game ie ever played including Halo (Legendary), Dead To Rights, Onimusha and then some others.

Some of the great concepts include the ability to walk on walls, and Drake's ability to slow time down/speed it up (A speed up, B slow down). But while Drake can slow time down he can also move fast and do double jumps. At 1st this is hard to master but once u got it down it is well worth it!! I am guessing that the "glitches" people are complaining about are the people who are having a hard time mastering the slow motion/speedinng up time and therefore it appears as a glitch.

As i mentioned before. Drake can also run up or sideways on walls and sometimes in order to run acrooss a really far wall u have to really know how to use the slowing motion/speeding up controls.

The shooting system is extremely difficult to master because it relies on the right thumbstick and the left and right triggers. Drake always has two weapons on him and the left trigger contorls the left hand and the right trigger the right hand so u can be aiming at 2 different enemies at once. The AI isnt very smart but it is hard becaue even if u try to get on top of a object the enemy will often go underneath it and it is near impossible to shoot him unless u go back and forth between to objects and get in 1 or 2 bullets when u can. Just because the AI isnt too smart thhough there are some things that are getting harder for me to figure out.(on level 12 so far)Plus it makes it harder cause all the levels are timed. SO DONT EXPECT A CAKEWALK BUT THE GAME DOES INVOLVE QUIT EA BIT OF STRATEGY! IF U WANT A GAME THAT WILL TRULY CHALLENGE YOUR SKILLS THEN THIS IS THE GAME FOR U!!

BEST GAME EVER!!!!!!!

although the game's cel shaded graphics and design is simular to the batman animated series, drakes does not exceed my expectations..the game seems too rushed and the levels can become frustrating and unispired.
majesco was on a roll with gunmetal and bloodrayne the 2 hit sleepers of 2002. but drake is sorely lacking. for shooting action and better graphics/playability, choose gungrave instead.
better luck next time guys

So you've decided to commit suicide.

I truly hope you've come here before you decide to buy or even rent this...thing. It is truly the bottom point in the history of the Xbox to date. That Microsoft even allowed this game to be released is somewhat disheartening. That human beings could create such a monstrosity is the thing that really makes me lose faith in humanity. The only use for this thing and I know it's a cliche but...the only use is to show up and coming video game designers how not to screw up every possible game play issue that can be involved in a game of this type. Please do not buy this game, please do not rent this game. If you do so, your soul will be tainted for all eternity. And to the mothers of the creators of this game...shame on you.

THE WORST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED!!!!!!

i have played games for a whle and this has to be(bt far) the worst. When you try to target the enemies your hands go inall sorts of directions and then your wondering why am i playing this hunk of junk? if that doesn't throw you off from playing it(i did for me) this will: the graphics are HORRIBLE and the camera angle in one least coperative i've ever seen!

GRAPHICS: 6/10 REPLAY VALUE: 1/10
COMPLEXITY:1/10 CONTROLS 1/10
OVERALL:1/10

HOPE THIS REVIEW HELPED IF IT DIDN'T THEN CHECK OUT THE OTHER ONES THEY SAY IT SUCKS TOO!!!!

Sometimes I really wonder how anyone can give a game like this a good rating. I mean come on user, "gamer-no-how", how can you say this game is better than halo? Halo is one of the best games ever designed and this game just sucks. Re-evaluate your rating skills.

One of the worst Video games ever created on a console

Two words can describe this garbage.....it sucks..

I won't even go to detail all I will say is not only is the gameplay glitched up and horrible to do especially how to controll drake, but the story is just plain stupid. Gamer no how doesn't know what he's talking about

Gameplay is just plain awful
Music...............I'm not even gonna go there
The controls is just plain awful

I have to give it a 1 out of 5...Hell I wish I could give it -5 stars but I can't

WHAT EVER YOU DO DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!!

Finally! An Anti-Game!

This is by far the worst game I've ever played for literally any system. No wonder it got a 1.25/10 by Game Informer but here's my review...

Graphics 1.5/10:

The cartoony graphics in this game are so laughably bad that I dug my Sega Genisis out of my attic just to see if this game was compatable with it. And unlike the cartoony graphics in the GTA series which suit the games theme perfectly, the cartoon style in Drake seems really unsuitable for the games theme.

Sound 1/10:

Drake is filled with annoying ambients which never fits the situation of the game, and soundeffects are just downright bad. When you fire a machine gun it sounds like your firing a clogged up watergun.

Challenge & Playability 3/10:

This game is not challenging at all. The stratagy tactics are pointless as well as useless. I took out ten guys just by literally banging the X-Box controler off my ass...Quite the challenge huh? The only good thing about playability is the fact that you can slow time down and use shot-dodge techniques, but even then the shot-dodge rips off games like "Max Payne". Sorry about fantasizing on games I'd rather be playing.

Replay 1/10:

Believe me, you will immeadiatly take Drake out of your X-Box and burn the game after the first couple of checkpoints. I would rather try to hook up with my psycho ex then play this game again.

Bottom Line: The only reason I gave the fun part 2 stars is because Drake was fun to make fun of, but when I realized I rented this game for a week, the laughs turned to gasps. If you don't want to heed my words, you can probably find this game at the nearest Salvation Army for a quarter or peed on in a wal-mart dumpster.

What the F**%!?
