I am only doing a review of this game for it is a new guilty pleasure that I am currently playing. Don't ask why, and no, it is not because of Vanessa.
Please tell me how my review was, whether it was good or bad.

Game: P.N.03 (Product Number 03)
System: Gamecube
Developer: Capcom
Genre: Sci-Fi Action
Players: 1
Release: Sep. 9, 2003
ESRB: Teen - Suggestive Themes/ Violence
P.N.03 was a new Sci-Fi Action game that was released back in 2003. It did not get stellar reviews, in fact far from that, but is it a really bad game? I say no, normal sane people say yes.
In this game you play the role of Vanessa Schneider--a freelance mercenary. You are hired to go out to a colonial planet to take care of what is going on. It happens to be that the robots are malfunctioning and are going out of control. There is little to no story, and the dialogue between Vanessa and her client is pretty boring.
The gameplay in this game is of a pretty much a run-n-gun, 3rd person action shooter. It is not really a jem, but it's not completely broken. You basically go through the levels trying to go into every room (they are small and there are usually 15 in a level), kill the robots (which don't respawn), and then defeat the boss at the end of the levels. The enemies are repetitive and are easy to defeat. The bosses are pretty massive most the time, but they are really easy to defeat. Usually with using one or two of the energy drives (special attacks which pertain to whatever suit you are wearing).
You get points for killing the robots, you can get combos from killing as well, and there are some bonuses as well. You use these points to upgrade your suit(s) with more powerful shield, more powerful attack, more energy, or to buy new suits. You can also buy the energy drives as well. The gameplay factor probably rules over the rest.
Graphics/Presentation: The graphics in this game are not the latest or greatest, even back in 2003, but they are passable. The only really thing that bothers me is the fact that you are basically in the same indoors area for most of the levels and they look identical to each other. This will lead to confusing the stupid people and makes for a really bland environment. The out doors levels are just set in a rocky and barren wasteland. This factor might leave you falling asleep behind the controller.
Sound: The sound effects aren't spectacular and are pretty much the same. The music is boring and there aren't that many tracks. There is also no voice acting.
This game can be put into mute and you won't miss a thing.
Value: This game is pretty much in bargain bins around the nation. Usually from $10 or $15. Not bad. There are 11 regular missions and then 50 trial missions. Usually 15 levels in each room on average. The average time per a level after going through every room and defeating every enemy is about 9 - 10 minutes. This might be a good thing if you are one to go through a game and beat it even if you are bored. Also if you meet the requirements you can unlock the (G-string) suit. It is not only said to be pleasing, but also is supposed to have all of the energy drives unlocked on it.
Tilt: This game is a big guilty pleasure for me, but not all that great of an experience for the average person, unless you are a depraved person who likes looking at a woman in tight clothing, shaking her butt while shooting.
This game is not recommended for anybody who is NOT a bargain gamer. Me and my best friend are probably the only people who looked past the bad qualites at the hollow empty center and enjoyed the game. Only buy this game if you see it in a bargain bin for $15 or less.
Good:
-Bargain Price
-Short Game (so you don't have to suffer for very long)
Bad:
-Bland/ repetitive environments with stupid enemies
-Boss fights are too easy
Grahpics: 6.0
Sound: 5.0
Gameplay: 7.0
Overall (Not an average): 6.5
