Default Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy

Is Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy for PC a First person shooter or a Third Person shooter. The reason I ask is the Xbox and PS2 versions indicate that they are third person However Gamespot indicates that it is a FPS
http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/psiops/index.html
They don't have any info as it hasn't been released in the US (Shame they seem to be behind on many games like Flat Out / PainKiller Black Edition )
Back to the issue I came accross some forum that compaired PSI-Ops to Chronicles of Riddick which suggests that it may be a FPS So I'm hoping that it is a FPS and as good as it's made out to be then I may go buy it.

Another thing but does anyone else find it anoying that many games sites clasify there game genre as action which could be a FPS a third person shooter or something else that is "Action" F@(#&$^% it can't they just say First Person Shooter - or Third Person Shooter.

I've played that, it's quite fun.
Didn't know it was on PC, I thought it was PS2 and Xbox exclusive.

It's in third person, it's just a port of the console versions. The PC version was released many months ago but was poorly advertised.

It also seems like the PC version is kinda buggy, Midway's never too good when it comes to PC ports anyways.

Nono!
I don't like 3rd person either, but this game is really a lot of fun.
Ragdoll physics + telekenitics = SCORE!

No, it was NEVER advertisted! Got to Midway's site and you'll see. I only found out about it when I clicked their technical support section. I got the game and I enjoy it alot. Being able to throw people and blow their heads up is so cool! It's just like David Croneberg's Scanners!
I didn't find any technical difficulties with the game though.

dghillza, if you are interested in getting it you can buy it here:
Zoo Digital

I found some copies of Psi-ops in Ebay and was much cheaper than at Zoo!
