Bourne cospiracy game

The game does not use the likeness of Matt Damon who portrays Bourne in the films. As the game progresses, players are provided with more clues to Bourne's true identity and begin the game by first hunting targets around the world as a deadly government assassin then labelled the agency's most wanted.

Players use Jason Bourne's peak physical and mental condition, martial arts training, sense of survival, cunning nature, heightened target awareness, and firearms training to engage and eliminate small armies. As a third-person espionage action game, players move from fistfights to firefights to car chases to experience sequences that aim to seamlessly blend Bourne's signature Kali martial arts with intense shooting and the ability to escape and evade deadly situations.

There are three difficulty settings which the player can choose from when playing the single-player campaign: Trainee easy mode , Agent normal mode and Assassin hard mode. The Xbox version of "The Bourne Conspiracy" will have 49 achievements worth gamerpoints. The game begins in Marseilles, where a highly trained CIA assassin Jason Bourne, operating under the black-op organization called Treadstone , has been tasked with assassinating a former African dictator named Nykwana Wombosi.

Wombosi knows too much about the agencies involvement in Africa and must be silenced. However, Bourne learns his cover has been blown, and Wombosi has hired an assassin named O'Conner to kill Bourne.

In this level, Bourne takes on O'Conner's men in the street and in a bar before pursuing O'Conner in the streets, and afterwards fighting him and killing him in hand-to-hand combat. After killing him, Alexander Conklin is uneasy with Bourne continuing the mission, but Bourne insists on completing the task another way. After killing O'Conner, Bourne heads down to the docks to sneak aboard Wombosi's yacht. However, with Wombosi's security team on high alert knowing that O'Conner failed , Jason cannot easily sneak aboard, and is forced to take on Wombosi's men head-on, as well as a helicopter, therefore he cannot act covertly anymore.

Jason also takes on Wombosi's lieutenant Solomon in hand-to-hand combat before throwing him over a railing and into the water. When Jason Bourne finally blows up the helicopter, Conklin realizes by now that Wombosi is well-aware that Jason Bourne is after him, and almost decides to pull the plug on the mission, but Jason decides that he will find a way to fake his death so that Wombosi and his men can relax.

Bourne learns that Solomon still alive decided to bring a group of Corsican mercenaries to assist in killing Bourne. Bourne then sets off fuel pumps to create the impression that he died in a blast so Wombosi would think he was dead.

However, Solomon and the Corsicans spot him aboard the yacht. Bourne takes on Solomon again but this time he pretends to lose and allows Solomon to wrap a heavy chain around him and throw him overboard, faking his death.

He then sneaks onboard the yacht after pulling himself up from under water. After successfully boarding the yacht, Bourne remains unnoticed for awhile, but he must disable the alarm system, an escape submarine, and a helicopter to prevent Wombosi's escape.

Solomon and his men are aware that he is still alive and decide to go after Jason. What gives Jason much luck is that nobody is allowed to disturb Wombosi, not even Solomon. After cutting off all means of escape for Wombosi, Bourne witnesses an intense argument between Wombosi's guards and the head of the Corsican militants.

Top review. It's not worthy of the name ''Bourne''. First off, I have to say that I am a big Jason Bourne fan. Boy was I wrong! I don't know why I got my hopes up so high. This is pretty much just another licensed title based on a movie or series. In other words, it's not that good, and it feels rushed. The game pretty much follows the story of the Bourne Identity, while some other scenes and missions follow the back story behind Jason Bourne and help us better understand this character.

The game is repetitive really quickly. Run through a mission from checkpoint to checkpoint. Along the way you'll have a few goons to fight or shoot at, and if you're lucky, a few objects here and there to interact with.

A few bosses can pop out of nowhere at times and attack you, just punch them with a few combos and perform take downs on them. But that's not all, they get up after take downs, so you have to rinse and repeat over and over again until you defeat the bosses. Sometimes, it feels like it's been 20 minutes you're fighting the same guy over and over again.

The fighting and shooting mechanics suck. Because the camera angles refuse usually to cooperate, it's a chore getting your cross hair directly on top of your target.

Fighting probably wouldn't feel all that painful if it offered more combos, if the enemies you are fighting weren't frustratingly difficult there are times when they are and, most importantly, if it didn't happen that often.

Another control scheme was with driving. Although it happens only once in the game that you drive a car thank god!!! I was able to finish the level with well more than half of my health on my first run through the Assassin difficulty. As long as you press the right buttons in countering his takedown, you'll be set.

I didn't even need to make him drop the knife. Don't worry if you mess up during it because the game saved a checkpoint right after the fight was over, so all you have to do is the one button cutscene to move onto the next mission.

You made find the steering a little to the cheesy side, but hey, do you want the game to be that hard? Anyway, there are several achievements that are specific to this level: Adrenaline Junkie, Civic Menace, and Paris Chase.

If you follow this guide you should be able to get all the achievements the first time through. Also, you will see glowing columns as you drive, head towards them. The columns are waypoints and direct you where to go. Just don't stop and use alleyways and you should not get arrested. Anyway, this level is very linear, it is basically impossible to get lost.

Follow the street you start on and make a slight right turn to head down the alleyway. Follow it and continue straight up into the u-turn.

Follow the road around a veer into the cafe as the bus will block your way. This has to be done for the Civic Menace achievement. Make a left and see that the tunnel is blocked. After a minute or two, Marie will suggest checking the tunnel again. You literally have to follow one path. You have no other choices, so don't worry about making a wrong turn. Follow the streets and you will be introduced to the adrenaline instructions.

To get the Adrenaline Junkie achievement, I just used up the first full bar right after that. Then liberally overused it the rest of the level. Your adrenaline builds up and you smash into things so drive on the sidewalk. You need to smash props anyway. Follow the streets and eventually you will get a new objective.

The stupid cops and civilians have an affinity to turn their car straight into yours, so don't be surprised if you get ran into head-on by some of them. As you approach the 'X' objective on the map showing you the China Shop keep straight to drive through it. You should have received the Civic Menace achievement. If not check the achievements option to see what you missed.

Most likely you have not smashed enough things. Turn right and follow the path around to head up a level. Your are heading to the top, but be careful a car pulls out on the second level and one is coming at you on the top level. Once you get to the top, aim for the ramp to jump off the building and smash your way through the fancy place. Follow the glowing waypoint columns and take a tour around the city. Eventually you end up near the park again, but you are going under the freeway.

Try to stay on the sidewalk because all the traffic is headed at you. Get to the end of the road and continue to follow the street. Once you do, a multi-button action cutscene is triggered. Stay on your toes, because you have to push at seven or eight buttons. Eventually, you make your way across the railroad tracks, just in front of a train and escape the police. You are going to take out an arms dealer at the museum, but first you have to get in.

Turn around and head across the area to the small alley on the right. After he is down head down the stairs into the first art gallery with some bizarre art I like the truck in the floor. An assassin is taking out the guards and you need to follow him. Continue forward and move down the stairs to fight three men in hand-to-hand combat.

Move towards the gap in the art cases by the dead guard. Move across the second art gallery to encounter a soldier on the ground. As you fight him the assassin takes a couple of shots at you.

Put down the guard and a dead security guard will fall through the door. Head through it to a room full of scaffolding. Grab it and head up the ramp. Follow the ramp around and climb up onto the pipe. As you shimmy across it across it, the assassin calls in "cleaners" to take care of the bodies. At the end of the walkway is a passport, but you can't get it yet. Get it and head down the hall to enter combat with the assassin.

He takes five takedowns to take out, so hold your block and combo in the breaks between his attacks. I like slamming him off the funky gear art next to him. Move up to the railing to trigger a short cutscene. Head to the left and pick the lock on the gate.

Follow the railing around and fight a security guard. At the end of the path jump into the ventilation shaft. Follow the catwalk and head downstairs. Once they are down make sure to pick up the gun. Directly across from the battle is a brown crate. These are what you have to search. Check all four of them and trigger a cutscene. Kill them and run up the set of stairs that Renard came down in the cutscene. Two soldiers are on the balcony with you. Kill them and take out the two soldiers shooting from below.

Move up and shoot one more guard beneath you. The door will be blown off the hinges and two soldiers enter, take them down. Head through the doors and walk into a shootout between security guards and the soldiers. The guards win, but they then turn on you. Take out the three guards and move further into the gallery. Kill three more guards one is on the balcony above the gallery.

Cross the gallery and head up the stairs. Head back to the door and bust it open. You are immediately engage in hand-to-hand combat with two of the soldiers while the third one shoots at you. I found this part frustrating because I kept the soldiers between me and the shooter, but I still got shot to death several times can't block bullets.

Anyway, take out the two guys fast and enter a sub boss battle. Several times I started this battle on deaths doorstep, only to be punched once or twice and die. If that happens you have to clear the six security guards in the previous room again I know sucks. Anyway, if you have some health, the soldier is not hard because you can survive a punch or two. Just block and combo, use takedowns immediately to regain some health too.

There are five soldiers in here three are dropped off by a helicopter. One is below you, just be careful and shoot them from the doorway. If you go out onto the balcony the door will close, so try to stay in the boss battle room and shoot out of it. Once you kill the soldiers, follow the path. A soldier will be on the balcony across the way, kill him and head down the stairs. Three more soldiers come at you. Head through the double doors and engage three soldiers. Kill them and then get the sniper around the corner.

As you take the sniper, two more soldiers appear. Take them down and continue on. One more soldier comes at you and there is another sniper. Kill them and go down the stairs.

A flashbang lands and two soldiers go hand-to-hand while one shoots a shotgun at you. I moved back around the corner to avoid being shot and took out the fighters. Proceed forward, shoot the shotgunner and go down the stairs. Now there are two snipers around the corner, cap them and move up the stairs.

Head up the stairs to see the mission ending cutscene, which thankfully is not interactive. The best part is, you can replay to get the Deadeye achievement as well. I would suggest beating it on Assassin and then replaying it on Trainee to pick up the two achievements. Run to the bookcase and press "A," this will trigger an action-cutscene and you will block the windows. Tip over the bookcase and move into the next room.

You have to tip over yet another piece of furniture to help Marie. Marie will then hide in the basement and tell you that Eamon has a shotgun. Collect the shotgun and head back down the stairs. Exit out of the house. This triggers a short cutscene. Take cover behind the wood logs. I like to shoot the small explosive barrel laying in the yard so the Professor can't hit it while I am moving.

Run to the next pile of wood and shoot the tank before your cover is shot away. Move into the wooded area. Move from cover to cover and shoot the red gas tank along the bottom of the truck. As long as you sprint the Professor will not hit you. Once you get there, you will have a three button action-cutscene to deal with. When you get close to the vehicle, the Professor blows it up and disappears.

Hop up onto the box to jump into the barn and enter an action-cutscene. He will blow away the little cover you have quickly. I found this battle to be really frustrating. The Professor can kill you really fast.

He can two burst you to death on Assassin difficulty. I found that waiting for him to stop going spazzy with shooting and the shooting him worked well in the first part. Once you get enough adrenaline, you can perform a shooting takedown that drops the hay bail on his head. Shoot him a couple more times and the fight moves into the adjoining room. The battle switches to hand-to-hand combat.

Now you have two minutes to take him down. This battle just keep getting more annoying. Anyway, try to stay on the offensive, block but don't block too much. You are going to take a beating, but in the end you will win. There is a glowing chair you can break over the Professor's head and many other objects to slam him into. Just take him down and you end up smashing your way through the side of the building.

Take out the Professor with the piece of wood and enjoy the cutscene. Time to take out Treadstone. The game has a completely different setup than the movie. There are way more guys to deal with. First off, sneak up behind the guard near you and perform a sneak takedown. Then slide down the cable and enter a fight with the sniper. After he is down, you will pick up the rifle and enter a multi-button action-cutscene.

Take out all the snipers. Grab it and jump to the next ledge. Beat down the guard and continue on. Jump up on the ledge and hop down. If you run up on the guard, you can get into a hand-to-hand fight before he can shoot at you. Pick up his gun after the fight. Move to edge of the wall and take cover. Take out one sniper before they even see you, and then shoot the other before he can take you down. Move forward a bit, and take cover in a small nook behind the chimneys. Shoot the two guards, and move out a bit keep cover though.

Two more guards appear above you behind the chimneys you hid behind. Kill them and two more run out onto the ledge. Kill these two and move to the skylight for a cutscene with Conklin. Get ready for a really annoying battle.

You are going to shoot around forty men going down the stairs and the best part is, if you die you start right here all over again. I hate this part of the game because it is a little ridiculous.

Shoot the sub-machine gun wielding guard. The amount of men in this mission is a little ridiculous, I mean you aren't superhuman.

Kill the two guards coming up the stairs. Move to go down the stairs and shoot the next man coming up them. As you move to go down them, the elevator brings another one up.

Kill him and then kill the guard who is above you. Then kill the guard coming up the stairs. Grab the shotgun and proceed down the stairs. Another man bursts through the door on the right. Gun him down and continue down the stairs. As you reach the first landing, another guard bursts through the set of doors left of the elevator see what I mean about the number of guards being a little excessive.

Move forward and kill the guard below you. Move again and kill the next guard to come up the stairs really two squads of people have already died you think they would give up. You may need to grab the sub-machine gun if you run low on pistol ammo.

I also grabbed the assault rifle. Move down the stairs slowly and take out the next guard below you. Two guards burst in on you one on each side of the elevator. Kill them and then get the two that are above you now. Fill up on their ammo. Move forward again and kill the guard that comes from the right hand door.

Get the guy that comes in the door on the left I hate this level by now. Now, one is above you again, kill him. Now take out the guard below you. Three guards are now below you, get them. You will also see a laser sight for a sniper. A guard burst in on the right door below you. Get him and move down the stairs. You will enter a sub boss battle. Block and combo. This guy takes four takedowns to defeat.

Just stay away from the railing because the sniper will shoot at you if you go near it. Once it is over, you will be on the streets. Three soldiers are shooting at you. I moved away from the car to take cover behind the edge of the building because the car can explode and kill you.

Anyway, once you kill a soldier. Vans will pull up and drop of more soldiers. Move forward and take out the three soldiers on the ground then take out the sniper above them. Proceed through the plaza area. Take out the sniper in the window. Then proceed to take out the four soldiers in the plaza below you. Once they are down you will enter an action-cutscene.

After it you will be in the plaza below fighting three more soldiers. Take them out and a soldier will rocket the green gate on the right hand side. A great deal of the game is completing quick time events, most of which result in immediate death if failed and provides no alternate route for victory. Frustrating to some but definitely adds an element of intensity to the action scenes. The world and settings are of an acceptable standard in style and detail but I often found I barely had enough time to even look at it with the mad action fest that occupies most of the games run time.

The game chooses not to focus on long held camera shots and elects to adopt the fast paced editing style prevalent in the films. Sure, its choppy look gives a strong frenetic feel to the combat but it can also make the fights hard to follow. Strap in for this fight fest.
