Reaction
The game was not well received by many gaming magazines and websites, often scoring at or below a four out of ten. In June 2006, X-Play named it as one of the worst Playstation 2 games of all time. However, Nintendo Power frequently mentioned how fun throwing Pre-Crime officers through glass windows was for several months after the game's release. The feature was later named "Best Guilty Pleasure" in the magazine's annual awards. X-Play said that 90% of the game is throwing people through windows when they talked about Xbox 360 backwards compatibility on one of the episodes.
Plot Line
You assume the role of John Anderton, a man on the run after the "Pre-Cogs" predicted you murdering a man named Leo Crowe. You go through different parts of Washington from the Pre-Crime HQ to the slums and factory areas to clear your name and solve the mystery behind your murder accusation.
Gameplay
Minority Report: Everybody Runs uses Ragdoll physics to make the fighting much more realistic. You can also use futuristic weapons both from the movie and by Activision.
Voice Actors
The voice cast includes Clancy Brown as John Anderton, Quinton Flynn as Danny Witwer, and Daran Norris as Leo Crow.
Weapons
Some weapons used in Minority Report: Everybody Runs are made up by Activision and some by the movie. All weapons are Non-Lethal. They are as follows: Concussion Rifle - A small one-handed gun that works almost like a sawn-off shotgun; fires a concentrated blast of air that blows your enemies back so hard that it knocks them out. Riot Shotgun - A miniature, futuristic version of the common Bean-Bag Shotgun that fires small pellets that instantaneously render the subject unconscious. Both the recoil and pump action make this gun very slow. Riot Machinegun - A small, almost Pistol-Like machine-gun that fires bullets that make the subject convulse and eventually lose consciousness. WASP - A gun that fires small rockets powered with an electric current shocking the subject and rendering the subject unconscious. Puke Grenade - A rocket-launcher that fires grenades which emit a green gas that makes the subject involuntarily vomit and render them dazed and confused. This enables the player to grab the subject by the neck and throw them. In the levels "Everybody Runs" and some of the riot levels, most of the innocents dry heave and never vomit, but they are rendered dazed and confused. Grenade Launcher - A rocket launcher that fires a small rocket which, when it explodes, knocks every person in that immediate area unconscious with a non-lethal blast. Baseball Bat - A cheat weapon given to the player when they enter the code Slugger into the cheat mainframe. This is the only semi-lethal weapon in the game.
