What can I say about this game, nay this series – Timesplitters have taken up an unhealthy amount of my childhood, and are probably my favourite game series to date. I still remember the day I got it, I pre-ordered it months in advance, and me and my brother bashed it and completed the story mode within a day.
Story
As with the previous Timesplitters games before this, the story is set around creatures called Timesplitters, grey almost zombie looking skinny creatures, that travel through time disrupting time, and destroying people and objects, changing the future – think Back To the Future meets 28 Days Later. You play as a character called Cortez, a bald funny man, just returning from a mission where he had to get a selection of Timecrystals that power a time machine, so you able to go back into time and stop the Timesplitters from disrupting the time & space continuum. This is pretty much what the game is set around, not a very complicated sounding story, but it’s very good – trust me. Throughout the levels you’re thrown into all sorts of different environments, from the 1900’s up to a very distant future, as you travel to all these different places, you’ll team up with a different character each time, which is if you play 2 player’s character. You team up with a cool Hippie in the ‘70’s for as few levels who in his own words is “psychedelic”.
