    Minority Report - Everybody Runs

    Couldn't find a thread about this so.....

    Minority Report is based around the film of the same name, but you won't find Mr Cruise et all in this game. They have torn the plot of the movie out and reshaped and we end up with a John Anderton voiced by non other than Clancy Brown.

    If you recall the movie, the story was about "precrime" - prediction and apprehention of murderers before the act has occured. Quite how this fits into the whole beat-em-up genre doesn't seem to have worried the developers so much.

    Anyway the game is typical beat-em-up action with some gunplay elements. Playing it reminds me of the combat parts of GTA and the like. What really makes it fun though is the environments -> throwing people through windows has never been so much fun. You also have access to a jet pac at points during the game which is quite decent.

    I'm about half way through, its fun in short bursts played on easy (anything else is just frustrating). Only cost be a couple of quid, well worth it at that price.

    its an awesome **** game, I loved it to bits purely for the ragdoll.
    I can guarentee hilarity X 100 just by entering this cheat code
    CLUMSY

    Now a simple press of L will activate ragdoll physics. Try it Mid roundhouse kick or whilst jumping towards a piece of furniture for maximum joy.
    I'm glad someone else has finally discovered this tie in from hell

      I actually played this when it was first released and like you Boris was amazed at how brilliantly **** it was... got tired of its terrible gameplay after a few levels but still had some fun with the physics.

        I bought it cheap used and the best part about it was the killer ragdoll. I quickly got bored though and sold it on.

          It's definately in my "**** games that I secretly love" list.

            Have to agree there - I'm only playing this for one reason -> to chuck people off things to their demise.

            They even cry "oh I'm falling" as they go...brilliant.

              If you enjoy lobbing people to their doom or executing them in REALLY gruesome ways - I recommend the punisher, much better than this tripe.

              I won't spoil too much of the fun, but at one stage you come across a tank filled with nasty flesh eating pirahnas...

              Works a treat on the 360 if you can find it cheap enough.

                I remember showing my Boss' 9 year son how to through people out of the window on the very first level.
                When he threw someone through a plate glass window to his death and said in the most dead pan voice ever

                "goodbye"
                we all wet ourselves laughing

                  Finished this now, painful in the later levels, even had to cheat a bit. Couldnt get the combos to work without button mashing for the most part. Still enjoyed throwing people around though...lol. Straight to ebay it goes to recover my minimal outlay (?2), so at a net cost of ?0 it was almost worth it..just.
