NCS Game Notes
*The intro to the game shows snippets of the original MTV cartoon before a rendered version takes over where Aeon blazes through a matrix of red lasers and is chased by insect-like cameras. A gang of henchmen attempt to stop her but they're soon knocked for a loop. All of them. Aeon ends the intro by leaping onto one of the insect-like devices and the two plummet downwards. A massive explosion follows. * The movie Aeon Flux stars Charlize Theron and the game version of Aeon sort of looks like her. The gal's voice also sort of sounds like Charlize. * The first level is called Model Behavior where Aeon enters the infamous "Fashion of the Fittest" competition held in Central Bregna. It's an actual fashion show where models walk the runway. Aeon has to literally walk on a lighted guide while a crowd hollers and whistles below. After walking the early portion of the runway, Aeon has to perform acrobatic feats through an obstacle course to show off the designer's creation in fluid motion while he oohs and aahs over the intercom. * After finishing the show, Aeon meets Una backstage and runs off to investigate Trevor's laboratory below the Colosseum before returning to the runway for her second fashion turn. During her investigation, Aeon may jump into a metal ball and roll herself around while looking for information. At this stage, the game progress may be saved to memory card. * In the Secret Breen Laboratory, Aeon has to gather some samples of information which are in the form of intel capsules which look like blue cards that rotate in place. Yellow and red lasers line the lab and Aeon has to jump and roll to avoid them. If she triggers a yellow laser, she'll be attacked immediately by mounted security weaponry. * Aeon has a wide range of finishing attacks and defensive maneuvers in addition to her quick attack and strong attack moves. One of her finishing moves involves leaping over an enemy where she snaps the victim's neck.
