The first game in the Timesplitters series takes you through many locations as many characters from cops to barely clothed women with miniguns killing enemies from mutant dockworkers to robots in a shopping mall in 2014 (that's soon, right?)

Maybe you will escape with the priceless artifact or will the TimeSplitters have something to say about it.

Critical Reception

Most critics praised its originality in gameplay and art, as well as it's fast paced and addictive multiplayer. A majority of the criticisms stem from its short length and sometimes frustrating level of difficulty. The PC style Map-Maker feature was considered a great feature and also garnered praise. Most reviewers gave this game a 8, or four out of five stars.

Trivia

  • Although TimeSplitters is the first in the series, it isn't necessarily considered canon. The only information given to the player about the story is that the Timesplitters are searching for the Time Crystals. In each level you must locate a Time Crystal and get to the beginning of the level to win. It isn't explained why or how your character knows about the crystal. Also, many of the main characters' and enemies' stories and appearances have since been drastically changed.
  • This game is considered the second most difficult in the franchise, behind TimeSplitters 2.
  • Out of the nine team members who originally worked on Goldeneye 007 , four of them went on to form Free Radical Design and create Timesplitters shortly after they finished development on Perfect Dark.
