Fracture advances players to the year 2161, where the effects of global warming have altered the planet's landscape, and a clash in ideologies over human enhancement places society on the threshold of war. In utilizing the core gameplay mechanic of Fracture, a destructive next-generation technology known as Terrain Deformation, players are equipped with an arsenal of futuristic weaponry to strategically reshape their surroundings on the fly.Every action they perform dynamically reshapes the earth in ways no videogame has ever seen.
Players set foot on the frontlines of this epic conflict in the role of Jet Brody, a demolitions expert fighting for the Atlantic Alliance, who rely upon cybernetic enhancement. Pitted against the genetically enhanced soldiers of the Pacifican army, players will experience a revolution in 22nd-century warfare. When Brody throws a tectonic grenade onto a level battlefield, the ground blasts upward providing access to otherwise unreachable areas or providing cover against approaching enemies. Surrounded on all sides by Pacifican forces, Brody heaves a vortex grenade, creating a swirling tornado-like mass of boulder, dirt and debris to dispatch his foes. These are just a few samples of the possibilities for Terrain Deformation. Players not only change the battlefield - they change the face of the battle itself.
Reshape the battlefield with terrain shattering weapons: Experience a dynamic battlefield that is unique every time you play. Use never-before-seen weapons to fracture, crater, freeze, or elevate the earth. Unleash a subterranean torpedo toward your enemy and literally blast the earth from beneath his feet. For the first time, players can mold a war zone for an advantage to push the attack or mount a defense.
Experience a story of betrayal and revenge: Follow the journey of a patriotic Atlantic Alliance soldier when an act of treason launches him into the lethal battlefield of the 22nd century, as forces wage a battle of genetics vs. cybernetics. In a war that divides loyalties and tests the bonds of country and family, this soldier's discoveries will ultimately decide the fate of North America and perhaps the world.
Multi-player & co-operative play allows the terrain deforming battles to rage on: Choose the side of the genetically enhanced Pacificans or the cybernetically powerful Atlantic Alliance, then jump online and exploit your chosen sides advantages as Terrain Deformation and Genetic vs. Cybernetic elements allow for endless hours of fun with friends online.
Fight for control of familiar locations and landmarks: The last World Wars were fought in Europe, but the next great global war will be fought on American soil. Battle in famous locations across the United States. Defend the Atlantic Alliance in Washington, DC, fight the decisive battle for control of Pacifica in the basin of the now-empty San Francisco bay and uncover the secret that will determine the world's fate in the Southwest Desert.

- It's a game.
If you're a big fan of FPS, this game will not disappoint... and it will not impress. I suppose the impression and experience a game delivers is at least somewhat time-sensitive; it may have been a little bit more impressive / fun when it came out nearly two years ago. I just played it, in summer of 2010. It is definitely technically proficient. The artwork is complete and detailed. But in terms of the storyline, it fails to engage. It's not as thin as an arcade shooter; it's also not as enthralling ...

- Lucas Arts? I expected better...
The game provided a way for me to kill time.
I was hoping it would have been more like the portal gun.Where you needed to use the gun to figure out how to make it through to the next level, type of thing.But it was more of a brainless, blast at the ground to figure out how to design your own cover.Bla...neat and novel Idea at first.Then after creating my molten blast shield of dirt.Shoot out wave after wave of enemies that was never ending.("monster closet" spawning)

- Great online game!
I have completed this game a few times and have found the campaign challenging. I have difficulty during some of the levels but with a little twicking of my tactics I was able to get through them okay. Knowing how to make good use of terrain deformation is essential to success. My favorite part of the game is playing online. Being able to use terrain deformation and some of the amazing weapons against live opponents is great fun! Sadly, others must not have discovered how great this game is to play online, ...

- fracture overall rating
The game starts by showing how the future is going to be a bad place. Since it's around the 22nd century, the west coast began changing people DNA while the east coast try to use cybernetic instead. You can regenerate your health by taking cover and you can use your guns to change the terrains. you play as Jet Brody and it's up to you to stop the general from taking over the world, as your progressive you'll be shooting wave after wave of enemies while keeping the camera under control. The bad AI make the game ...
