The only real flaw i felt the game had was that it falls into the trap of a lot of games of its type, first person shoots based around a story and there is nothing but playing through the story to game, but it did have 2 endings. there was no multilayer but its just not that type of game and its better in not have it. It was one of my top five games on the xbox, my second favorite after morrowind and then followed by halo 1 and 2. i do feel that the game had some untapped potential though
What fucking pissed me off was that everybody was like, "Wow, it looks pretty shitty." Yet they didn't play it for the story or the suspense, which BLEW ME AWAY. The most under-rated Xbox game every created...
i beat this game on every difficulty, and no matter how many times i played it i still get chills meeting the stealth t'lan and when Alex gets killed in front of me, this game was my absolute favorite of all time
There's a part in the game where you enter this facility and they explain what's going on and why they brought you here, you then look at this mirror while hallucinating. At the time I played this game, I looked EXACTLY how he looked in the mirror, facial hair and all. It freaked me the hell out.
I even looked at my Xbox thinking it might have some kind of camera that does a facial recognition thing, but it was just coincidence.
As much as this game leaves you wanting more when its over, it is probably best that there isn't a follow-up. Maybe if its done by the same people. But the way the story ends...
MEGA HUGE SPOILERS, DON'T READ BELOW IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED BREAKDOWN (ONE OF THE GREATEST GAMES EVER) its pretty much a continuous cycle. If the two characters want to stay together, they will have to keep jumping back and forth through time continuously saving the world and again putting it back in danger.
I blame the lack of multiplayer as the reason this game didn't sell well. Such a pity, too...if it had developed into a franchise, there's no doubt in my mind it would have beaten the hell out of Halo.
Chills man, absolute chills. I haven't played this in a few years and I guess even though I know it's a great game, I've forgotten just how badass it really was.
lol i cried after watchin the trailer, tears of joy man, this was the best game ever ^_^ i still have my copy and with that...i think imma go play it again
I only rented this game and played it to death when i did, just watching this trailer again makes me want it even worse. I would even settle for a remake of the original but updated like the chronicles of riddick game coming out if not a sequel
The only reason I still have an X-Box is because Breakdown is still not backwards compatable on X-Box360. I want everyone to know I beat the game, I know how it ends, and this is one of those games I would sell my soul to see a sequel made for! I mean, I'd take them never making another Zelda or Kotor game again to see a sequel made for Breakdown!
Huh, I tried it before I had Live and it didn't work. Did you get your X-Box recently or do you get the Official X-Box magazine disks? Because that might be why. But it doesn't matter anymore since I got Live, and I can finally play Breakdown on 360!!
this game is retarded set on max difficulty. the white room right before solus at the very end? harder than solus/nexus. hardest thing ive ever done in a videogame, but the subject matter is so amazing that i never got mad at it. it'll never happen, but a second game would require minimal advertising to make ungodly money. I'd buy several copies to force on people that hadn't played it yet.
So far this game is fucking awsome. My favorite game, but im stuck fighting solus after u go back in time, when he powers himself up ands so damn hard
Breakdown owns so much, call me a noob but this game was/has been one of the hardest ive played, but thats what made it awesome, along with the story, beatin solus was one of my top 5 moments in gameing history! The thing that gets me is theres a 1 in a billion chance of a 2nd game set in the 'future' if one does get made, they might just make a different story line. Fingures crossed anyway
This is an amazing game, despite a few parts where it felt clunky (the Anti-T'Lan laser has WAAAAYYY too little ammunition, in my opinion) although it shines above basically any other first person shooter made. Ever.
This was the best game on Xbox in my opinion. Its a damn shame it got crap reviews and half of everyone hated it, cos a sequal would make my year and its never going to happen.
This game was awesome. Sure, some of the graphics weren't as par as some others, but the story AND gameplay more than make up or it. This is how a FPS should be
I just beat this game. It was fucking amazing. It beats Halo for multiplayer but the storyline - compared to this game - is simple-minded. This is a masterpiece for a 1-player, first-person shooter.
this game is so friggin' awesome, but it is too underrated. us fans should be abble to do something about this. i want their to be a sequel. all those who agree with me can send me a friend's invite.
Probably one of the greatest games of all time, and also one of the most underrated. It's really amazing what a great difference it made to do such a simple thing--that is, to keep the player in the first-person perspective during EVERYTHING. Not during cutscenes, load times, even the beginning and ending movie...from start to finish, the player remains in the first-person perspective. It's amazing how much of a difference it made to the story.
The story is you wake up without any previous memories. You're attacked by military then saved by that girl, Alex. You discover you have the power to kill t'llan (the white-eyed guys) and you have to escape and then save the world from T'llan overtake by killing their king, the NEXUS, which is in a place called Site Zero. You have hallucinations through the first half of the game, then there's stuff like time slipping and things like that to keep the story confusing as hell.
It is one of those games where you just cant. It will send shivers down your spine every five seconds, and it will make your head spin with all of its plot twists. There's almost no music, and you saw him punching the soldier? That was a person playing, not a cutscene. There is no HUD either. One of the most realistic games i've ever seen. And its creepy!!!
The only real flaw i felt the game had was that it falls into the trap of a lot of games of its type, first person shoots based around a story and there is nothing but playing through the story to game, but it did have 2 endings. there was no multilayer but its just not that type of game and its better in not have it.

Agreed, this game is an art. It doesn't need a sequel to ruin its intricate structure. It's sort of a closed loop.

I have yet to see another 1st person game that even comes close to the likness of this.
