Pretty lackluster content wise for a PS2 game because of the fact there's not really a story in the game, you just do time trials on levels that have shared areas that are also used as levels in multiplayer.

However I will say that the game still is a lot of fun and I love how fast paced it is, however I can definitely see that the difficulty settings are complete bullshit lol.

Save for a few levels, on easy difficulty the game is super brain dead where everything dies in one shot, but as soon as you switch to "normal" the game is brutal difficulty wise, especially after the first two levels.

This was totally done to artificially stretch out the average player's time they spend on the "story" from dying over and over again and having to completely master the level and have perfect reaction times on regular and hard. This alone is kind of fun and reward in itself to master the levels back to back but it is way too hard at points like on the 1980s chemical plant map, some enemies will hide in complete darkness and you'll have no idea they exist until after you're shot by them.

However the multiplayer is really fun with the novelty of all these different weapons and characters from totally different eras being thrown together in a big goldeneye styled single player deathmatch. However, gameplay wise its just fun...It doesn't really do anything else super interesting.
