The Great Escape is a well-done video game. It's very much in the spirit of the movie, which fans like me appreciate very much. The graphics, sound effects, music, and game play are all very good. The only negative thing I have to say about the graphics is a minor comment that not all of the characters look quite like their movie namesakes. What I like most of all about The Great Escape is the variety. The levels are quite different from each other, set in a variety of locations ranging from a bomber aircraft in the sky to a castle on the ground, not to mention many different prison camps. You get to be different characters throughout the game with different abilities. The gameplay itself varies as well: sometimes you have to use your noodle to get out of sticky situations; sometimes you have to be stealthy; sometimes you have to be quick; and occasionally you just have to fight, whether with your fists, a weapon, or a vehicle. A few of the levels that seemed difficult at first eventually became solvable after thinking the situation through and some trial and error. This is one of my favorite X-Box titles.

a great game before its time

Other than not being able to save except at certain checkpoints which don't occur often enough, the game is fun to play and offers interesting challenges.

Very Good Game

I ordered this Game on-line. It was not available in the local stores. I did not pay very much for the game and I don't think it should carry a high price tag. This game is essential like a Play Station Game: Lower level graphics and such. But however it was surprisingly quite good. I don't own a PS2. I gave it a 5 star rating for fun, since I thought it was entertaining. Not whole lot goes on in the game, really, but I do recommend it, for anyone interested in the theme, and I did thoughly enjoy it. Some hard-core game players may feel disappointed by the lack of detail and challenge.
