Has anyone played throught his game? I just finished and I can't say anyhting without giving away the suprise ending. It's absolutely wonderful what the Wachowski's did. If you guys are curious enough, I'll go ahead and spill the beans but I wanna know if anyone else was surprised like I was.
All I can say is that the "Jesus ending in a video game is laaame (way lame!"
well the game all leads up to the big super burly brawl against Smith in the rain and in the sky. it's crazy, it's action-packed and it's sorta fun.
now, in the movie, neo sacrifices himself in order to stop the matrix and the smiths. of course, in a video game, that sorta thing does not work. so after you beat Smith to a bloody pulp, you are shown a crazy cutscene.
The room is all white and 2 old red chairs coming flying towards the camera and stop. after a short pause, 2 8-bit solid-color characters visualize and identify themselves as "the residual self images of Andy and Larry Wachowski". Andy & Larry begin to explain that the ending in the movie wuold not work at all and would not be very fun so they talked to Shiney and said they want to make an idealistic all out super-fun final boss battle. so the scenario they come up with instead of the movie-ending is after Neo beats Smith, Smith retreats and ALL of the Smiths follow him, grabbing up buses and cars and peices of buildings and roads and all running towards eachother. As the Smiths grab all this stuff, they come together to form this giant 400-story robot Smith (who plucks a pair of sunglasses from a nearby billboard).
You then have to spend a good 20 minutes fighting a giant Smith robot. No joke.
This is one of the most interesting boss battles I've played in a while. You spend a majority of the battle dodging Super Smith's attacks. Every once in a while, you find the time to charge through his giant body, leaving giant gaping holes in his frame. As the holes get larger, the Smiths inside the giant Smith manage to come flying out at you as Super Smith swings and throws things at you. One of the most amusing things is when Super Smith throws large buildings at you that they are full of Smiths who go comedically flying by screaming with a paniced look on their face.
Once this is all said and done, then and only then are you done with the game. At that point you are treated to "We Are the Champions" by Queen as clips from the movie begin to play.

every bit of it. in fact, the cutscene in which the smiths join together is the single most high quality cutscene ever produced (using the cg studio from the movie)

After spending 5 days playing that game (it would've been 4 if my roommate's damn cousins didn't delete my shit half-way thru) I feel the same way I did after my first time gettin' some pussy.
"Eh. . . that was different"
Maybe I need to treat it the same way I treated pussy the first time and get in it and play with it a few more times before I begin to appreciate it more.
The game itself is dope as shit, I haven't enjoyed a game like that since Metal Gear Solid. The storyline is contrived as shit, but that's mostly because I already saw the movie and I knew the order of things before it ever happened.
The story line in "Enter the Matrix" was better, but the fighting and controls in this game were 20x better. I would skip cut scenes just to get back to the fighting because I had so much fun whoopin' ass. Never before have I played a game that was such much fun to just drop the guns and go hand to hand. Nobody can honestly say they didn't drop the controller and run around screaming when Neo would take out a room full of Agent Smiths.
I liked how they expanded the movie for the game such as the Dojo fight scene, the black and white samurai part. The Gayest part had to be when I had to fight those fuckin' Ants. I'm STILL PISSED that they fucke dup the fight between Neo and the Marivincian's henchmens.
The ending was gay, nuff said. They should've stopped at the Wachoswski Brother's introduction, I really was pissed when I had to fight that fuckin' Giant Agent Smith, I felt like I was playing the Simpsons Arcade game again, I was waiting for Lisa and Marge to come flying thru with a Vacuum.
All in all, I need to go back thru and unlock more of the cheats and stuff, and finally get to a level Higher than "Master"

the ending was kinda just thrown in there. for no reason. and pointless. and lazy. and repetitive. this shit turns into a shooter game the last 15 minutes of it?!
we are the champions?
oh no. this is the worst ending ever. and it's not a bad game.
