Fun:
Paying hommage more to the cartoon series of "Aeon Flux" rather than the movie version, "Aeon Flux" (the game) is a solid, entertaining, and challenging play. The story, set into different episodes that span a great deal of time, is a tribute to Aeon's notoriously muddled continuity. You will die only to be reborn and then die again. Aeon, voiced by Charlize Theron, controls gracefully...if rather clumsy. For the varied moves the game offers some are a bit hard to pull of. Especially under the time constraints the game loves to put forth. Although the game does offer an onscreen timing indicator, it can still be a bit tricky and rather frustrating. The animation is great and Aeon looks beautiful as she makes her way through the game. That said, the graphics are great and the characters models look great. Interesting to note that most of the character models are crafted after the cartoon versions and not the film. So fans of the series will take great joy in watching Aeon interact with those familiar faces. Aeon is presented in many different lights (including the wife of Goodchild) and the game offers some cool unlockables. Varied costumes choice, including the movie catsuit but not the original Aeon Flux, gives the game good replay value. The difficulty is high, as the game presents lots of jumping elements and stealth game play. It's easy to become frustrated with all the bullets flying and the death toll rising, but the sheer joy at creating such choas presents its own charm. Fans of action games will have a good time with this one...but it's real joy will be for Flux fans who have been eager to finally get their joysticks revved up with Aeon Flux. A surprising solid game that has found a audience despite the lackluster performace of the Flux film. A definate treat that deserves a once over.
