This is one of the better movie to game adaptions. They added FMV's with the actual actors that told the story from Ghost and Naobi, which all depends on the character you choose at the beginning. If this game was remade it would need to have controller support!

The great movie, the great game based on the Matrix movies. Now you can play it only if you have a DVD. We need this game on a game platform like GOG! This game must survive! :)

This game was probably the best movie tie-in game I've ever seen, simply because it actually ties into the movie and tells story that happens alongside it, with interconnected bits. Gameplay itself was fun as hell too, basically "rule of cool" in video game form. Also the hacking minigame was really neat way to unlock extra stuff. Granted, there was a lot of "jank", but overall it was simply fun. Shame that (from what I've seen) running it nowadays is a headache sadly
The memories of being in the post office in this game on the original GameCube were groundbreaking at the time. The game is incredibly unique, offering a solid selection of firearms and the thrill of non or slow-motion shootouts—such a fun experience! The ability to choose between characters like Ghost or Niobe was also a standout feature that made the game even more special.
I have so many games in my library that have a special place in my heart, but among them, Enter the Matrix definitely stands out among all the movie tie in games as being the #1 best tie in I've played. The 2000s nostalgia, the dual storylines, the references and backstory to the movies, the ending that leads into Revolutions. There's so much that this game does well and it absolutely should be preserved not just because of its importance to the Matrix storyline, but also 2000s culture as well as gaming history. Loved it on the Gamecube, and was very sad that it's not backwards compatible on the 360 with the original Xbox version. Truly a wonderful experience.
grałem w tą grę do 30 razy w ciągu lat jak miałem kompa z XP i Viste przechodziłem ją dni i tygodnie grając ją z płyty po polsku to jest początkowa gra przed path of neo.
Unbelievable so it's possible to get this and Path of Neo off of console? Oddly enough, this can run @ 60 on Xbox original but it's not consistent, still this is good news, I'll take it since I want to beat this game on PC now. Anything for this IP really, GoG restore this gem even if it's a meh gem, it's a gem nontheless from our 2000s gaming era.

One of the best movie tie-in games ever. Amazing score and even if the gameplay is a bit clunky, it's still worth playing, especially for the character-specific levels, which makes at least two playthroughs a must!
this game was janky as sh** but i loved every moment of it, at the time it blew my mind finding a whole other movie hidden in here with whole scenes recorded with the original actors made specifically for the game. one of my favourite cult classic games

What I really loved about this game was that you had to play the game to understand the story. I wish I could play the game again but I do not own the console version nor PC so whenever I watch the Matrix trilogy movies, it feels like I am missing something
Those games also need your vote!

The player must lead the protagonist out of the dungeons and to the palace tower, defeating Jaffar and freeing the Princess in under 60 minutes.
