This game had me laughing from the opening monologue to the last cut scene. The dialogue was outstanding. I enjoyed this game so much I can’t wait for the sequel to come out. I will pre-order a copy a soon as it becomes available. It was rated Game of the Year and deserves that Award. With it’s great graphics, story line, dialogue and various scenery, other games will have to go a long way to beat this one. If you liked Austin Powers and 007, you will love this game. It has a mixture of both incorporated in it’s story line.

Tested on 1GHz P3 with 256Mb RAM and ATI Rage 128 running Windows 2000 Pro, DirectX 8.1, latest video drivers from ATI.
I got the demo from PC Gamer magazine and had a lot of fun with it. I noticed the price of the full game was [the right amount of money] so decided to buy it. What a waste!
The same installs with no errors. However, when I try to run it all I get is an hourglass for a few seconds then nothing. When I run TaskManager I can see nolf.exe in the process list but there is no corresponding window.

its not bad for [$$], but its not the best game ever made by far. First person shooters are basically all similar in feel. You point and click and shoot the enemy that jumps in front of you. Or you can stand back and snipe the unsuspecting target from 100 meters away. Nowadays, virtually every fps has a machine gun, and sniper gun, and despite the packaging the core gameplay remains similar. WHat makes the great fps is the “angle” Where is it based? Whats the storyline? Does it actually make my heart pump, or makes me curious enough to finish the level? I’m not saying NOLF is a bad game. It is very fun, and i like the doses of humor sprinkled throghout. But because it really lacks a distinctive angle, NOLF is not a “great” fps. IMHO, some great fps games I’ve come across or played were System Shock 2 (for its eeary atmosphere and chilling exctiment), Alien v Predator (good graphics for its time and scary as [heck]), and the Rainbow Six series (because of their realism) I’m also playing NOLF 2, and its a definite improvement over its predecessor. Before declaring this as the best action game of 2000, or ever (as some would argue), please try out the other fps games I put down here. You will definitely notice the difference.

This game is great. I rented it on Playstation 2 and I loved it. So I bought it for the computer. The training in the begining took me about an hour. It only took me about 10 minutes on playstation. The problem is the controlls. It is much easier to get the hang of the controlls with a controller. The game is good after you get over the controlls first.
