Does look pretty sweet. I found a quick description on a site about it.

Black is a fresh and unique take on the first-person shooter. Moving away from the covert and simulation obsessed games of recent years, Black delivers intense action gun fights by identifying the key components of great Hollywood shoot-outs and recreating them as a game. The peerless fire-and-effect experience will revolutionise video game shooting.

With the odds stacked heavily in the enemy's favour, the player can only succeed by learning a new style of attack.... be bold, be aggressive and use the physical environment as an ally. In Black, it's not just who you shoot, it's what you shoot. Signs, walls, statues, doors, ceilings, and windows can all be destroyed to surprise, stun, wound or kill your enemy - with devastating results. Every bullet has an impact, every impact has an effect.

Features:

The Best Shooting - The most destructive gun fights ever seen in a video game. Everything in the environment is affected by gunfire.


Signature Kills - Use the environment as a weapon. Make tactical use of destructive environments. Take out enemies in cover, multiple enemies at once, or just for the thrill of seeing massive destruction.


Awesome Firepower - The biggest, best guns inspired by weapons from classic Hollywood action movies like The Matrix, Terminator 2 and Predator.


Four Guns are Better than One - Added firepower and communication heighten the intensity of battle with the player supported by three highly trained specialists.


Stunt Man Enemies - Interesting, dynamic targets surrounded by explosive debris.


Trigger Time - The largest body count of any video game. 5 times the number of enemies per level than conventional action games ensures relentless action

Seen it in the shops a few times, definatly looks hawt

Is it Ghost Recon that just came out for the 360? If so it looks fucking amazing. Shame 360 blows donkey dick.

This will be something I get. I have been taken in by everything that if offers.

yeah seen preiviews of that too, graphics are amazing, but yeah h8 xbox

played this a few weeks back, it's very very good. expecially if you have surround sound.

Yeah tht game pwns!
And my mate has black but I havnt had a chance to play it yet cos of work...once I go round next ill throw a review in

It looks awesome. I just need money.

Ever played killzone for the ps2? That was a pretty hawt game, especially if you love fps.

I love how realistic it was, inside of getting shot like 34093274932 times, you die pretty easy in that game and it makes you more alert.

Yooooooooo.........Um this gamne is cool but its sketchy like all FPS's on PS2 I stick to my CPU Games lol bnut if you like shooting stuff and destruction this games for you.

Okay so I went round my mates house yesterday and played black so ill throw a really quick review in.
The game is just so overthetop its unbelievable, the explosions are huge the guns make huge holes in just about everything and for a while its fucking great, although the novelty does wear off after a while as you kind of get used to it being that way.

Personally I was expecting better graphics, although I have been playing a 360 so im kind of used to amazing graphics. The game reminds me alot of killzone crossed with Red Faction2. In some places the lighting needs to be better as it gets too dark and some of the textures suck ass.

The AI is generally pretty good, although it sometimes seems as if their health has been turned up too much, you can empty a whole clip into them and get no result but gte lucky with one stray bullet to the head and they drop down straight away.

IMO this is the second best game on PS2, next to "we <3 katamari damacy" definatly worth a buy

You seemed rather negative.

But as the second best game I will get it.

Its a great game dont get me wrong but its just not quite what I was expecting

Is it extensive in terms of level size?

They are pretty big levels yeah, not fantasticly huge but they are a pretty good size and you never think that was a bit fucking quick, although I dont think there is all that many levels tho, so it might not take too long to finish it, depending on how good you are, how much you play etc

I love Madden
