"At Free Radical, we are passionate about console gaming," says David Doak, Managing Director of Free-Radical Design. "It’s only natural that TimeSplitters 2 will be appearing on all three next generation consoles."
Prepare to battle through history as the evil TimeSplitters get ready to rise again. TimeSplitters 2 will improve on the original in every conceivable way. The game offers a more involving single player and co-operative story mode, featuring a complex narrative with multiple objective-based episodes and superbly animated cut-scenes.
The game engine has been extensively upgraded to accommodate bigger, better backgrounds and special graphical effects while still providing the distinctive smooth fast paced action of the original. A completely rewritten animation system incorporating inverse kinematics brings even more lifelike movement and dynamism to a new collection of 'loveable rogue' characters.
TimeSplitters 2 will retain the unique MapMaker in an enhanced form, which opens up even more potential for user customised game scenarios

My comments: Apparently, this game was developed by the people who brought us the original James Bond: Goldeneye and also the makers of Perfect Dark! It's also supposed to have a bad ass multi-player function to it! Looks sweet! And, yes, it's an FPS :D
