Die Hard: Vendetta

released on Nov 15, 2002

John McClane is back. Many years have passed since his work in New York, and he now works for the Century City Police Department (CCPD) in Los Angeles. You are in John's shoes as he must face a new threat. Piet Gruber, the son of Hans Gruber and McClane's old enemy, is up to no good at the Townsend Art Museum. He has stolen valuable art and kidnapped John's now adult daughter and fellow CCPD police officer, Lucy. This game is a First Person Shooter, but it also adds two features: Stealth Mode and Hero Time. Stealth Mode allows John to sneak around quietly, even being able to grab his foes and use them as hostages. This means it may not be best to go in guns blazing, when they could be arrested. Hero Time allows John to react far more quickly, just like Bullet Time in Max Payne. Hero Time is earned by saving hostages and performing heroic tasks in the game.

Die Hard: Vendetta throws you into the shoes of John McClane for a first-person shooter rampage across Los Angeles. While the story attempts to capture the essence of the films, repetitive environments, frustrating level design with unforgiving checkpoints, and uninspired gunplay make this a forgettable experience. Fans of the franchise might find some fleeting enjoyment, but overall, Vendetta is a shallow shooter that fails to live up to the iconic action hero.

Bare bones FPS with a slight Die Hard theming. not amazing, but the gameplay is fun enough. Love the one slow-mo shot in the Studio area, wish it had been in more of the game. Can't recommend it, but I own it and enjoy pulling it out ever couple years.

I own this on GameCube and have completed it a couple of years ago, but I don't remember a single thing about it. So that means it can't be good and it can't be bad (bad games are memorable for the wrong reasons). Hence the 2,5 stars.
