Mission Impossible was a great TV series, a great movie, and now it has turned into a great game. It's a combination of stealth, puzzles and shooting.

This is definitely a game you can replay many times. The easy mode is REALLY easy and is set up more as a training tool for those who aren't familiar with this type of game. On the other hand, the harder modes can get REALLY nasty and it will take you several times to get through those.

The movements of the character climbing over boxes and sliding along walls are all extremely well done. The graphics in general are quite nice - maybe not up to Splinter Cell quality, but they do draw you in. The plot is great too - it is a plausible situation and you do start to feel connected with the various characters. You care about what happens to them.

The game isn't simple. This isn't a doom-like shooter where you plow straight forward. You actually have to think about the situation you're in, figure out what the best method would be for getting to your objective and then working on it. Don't expect giant glowing arrows in this telling you DO THIS NEXT! I really enjoyed the challenge.

Highly recommended for fans of the Splinter Cell genre, as a way to test both their reflexes and their brainpower!
