    An excellent looking shooter

    Black looks and plays good from the moment you turn it on.
    The story is told out well you are a solider named Keller and each conversion he has refers to a mission which is then flashbacked so you get to play that mission. The first mission you play through is great which excellent graphics, glass breaking everywhere and intense shooting.
    At the end of each mission you get a stats screen the best feature on it I think is how many enemies you killed, did you get them all.....?

    The only two bad things about this game is towards the end you start to get a bit bored as it repeats itself and also the whole game itself doesn't last very long. If it wasn't for these it would have got a perfect 10.

What I feel I must admit is that I have previously cleared Black many, many times -- not so many as to be uncountable, but enough times to where I’ve stopped bothering counting. I know enemy patterns and I know all the surprises. You can glean from this that I am not the most impartial person that will ever critique Black. I like Black, and I like it a lot. For me, I can v...
