24 The Game has been closely developed in collaboration with the critically-lauded TV shows writers, musicians, stars and producers. The game is an action adventure game in which you take control and live a 'brand new day' in the life of Jack Bauer (played by Kiefer Sutherland in TV series) and the Los Angeles Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU). 24: The Game has multiple character plots and strands and over 100 missions, spanning a variety of gameplay genres including on-foot sections with shooting, stealth, puzzles and sniping; driving challenges varying from stealthy tailing to high-speed pursuits; interrogations where you have to coerce information out of suspects; and gadget sections which involve decoding information and examining satellite images. 24: The Game is set between seasons two and three of the TV series and provides answers to many questions: who was really behind the assassination attempt on President Palmer? How did Kim Bauer get a job in the L.A. CTU? How did Jack Bauer and Chase Edmunds first start working together? So if you are a fan of the TV show, its odds-on you will be a fan of the game, which has some jaw-dropping revelations for fans and fairly full-on, non-stop time-pressure gameplay, which reflects the quick cutting real-time edit of the TV show. 24: The Game also showcases the most extensive cast of Hollywood actors ever seen in a game, with the voices, likenesses and characters of Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland), Kim Bauer (Elisha Cuthbert), Tony Almeida (Carlos Bernard) and other characters all faithfully captured and recreated so players really feel like they are part of the action.

[Highly rated reviewer]

I'll really enjoy watching the TV show 24 so I thought I'd rent this to see what it is like. The game is very good if you like the TV show, the car handling is not as good as GTA but still ok. The game can be completed in around 10 hours so this is worth renting rather than buying.

24? More like 23 and then add 6 to catch Mr shin!

By Forehead119 (9 reviews) from Cowes , 11 Oct 2009

24 Is an alright game, nothing special but not terrible. Indeed blasting those enemies is good fun for a while. But its ruined by the driving sections and i dare anybody to say they caught shin first time! It took me an hour and half a bottle of wine!

A pretty good game!

By wannie (8 reviews) from East Grinstead , 06 May 2009

The story is pretty good for a game based on a TV show and the graphics are also good for its age.

Thanks to Progressive Scan this game can be played in HD making its use on Playstation 3 a good play :)

Also, because the disc is read faster on the PS3 the audio becomes out of sync during the cutscenes.

Reccomended to 24 fans!

24:The Game

By Mr.EjItErE2K8 from Aberdeen , 22 Feb 2008

I have to admit i was dispointed with this game because i didnt like the graphics, but i am fussy. I liked the missions and all the usual characters. i loved the cut-scenes and the fact that you dont just play Jack. You can play Kim, Tony, Michelle and a few more.
