* UniversalAmmo: Your two basic ammo types are ammunition and energy. About 2/3rds of your guns use ammo, and the other 1/3rd use energy. Run out of both ammo types and your guns ''all'' become useless. A very extreme example, the sniper rifle which kills T-900s in 1 shot and the basic plasma rifle which takes several shots to kill both cost the same amount of ammo to shoot. There are also plasma grenades and rockets for more specialized weapons such as the underslung grenade launcher on the plasma rifle, or the missile launcher.

* VideoGameLives: Each game session gives you 3 continues which allow you to immediately revive after death with no loss of progress. Extra continues can be found hidden in the levels. Continues can be wasted if you try to use them in the fighting game sections, as in those levels they're no different than simply restarting the mission.

* InformedAttribute: According to the manual or strategy guide, the T-900s are supposedly an improvement over the old T-800 series, being tougher and more powerful. This ''absolutely'' does not come across in-game, where they die to just a few plasma rifle shots and you mow through them by the dozens. In fact a basic T-900 can only survive slightly more damage than a human Tech-Com soldier. The only non-T-X Terminator that's able to match you one-on-one is another T-850 unit.

* CameraLockOn: Instead of aiming-down-sights or zooming in, the "zoom" button instead causes you to automatically lock onto the closest enemy, immediately pointing your weapon at it. This is just as well, since the game's manual aiming is quite bad, with a huge sensitivity deadzone and speed acceleration.

This can be tough since the terminal is guarded by a bunch of fliers and mini-tanks and the tech has a bad habit of running ahead of you and getting himself killed. Likewise, during the masoleum level you have to escort John Connor and nonlethally take out the S.W.A.T. teams who seem hellbent on riddling the unarmed John full of lead.

* AIBreaker: In the fighting game boss fights, your running tackle attack hits 100% of the time; the enemy A.I. will only block it if you try to use it 3 times in a row. So you can easily cheese any boss by performing 2 running tackles followed by 1 running throw, over and over until the boss dies. Given how NintendoHard the later T-X boss fights can be, with plenty of TheComputerIsACheatingBastard, this technique may very well be necessary to beat the game.

* AdaptationExpansion: Only the last 1/3rd of the game follows the events of the film (most likely because the T-850's inability to kill humans severely limits the potential for levels set in 2003). The first 2/3rds involve the T-850 fighting his way through the Future War setting in order to reach the time displacement chamber and travel back to 2003.
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: Green T-900s are the more basic mooks, while red T-900s are a bit tougher, having roughly double health and being equipped with heavier weapons such as assault cannons.
* MechaMooks: Because ''Terminator 3'' had Arnold's likeness but not the rights to the T-800 Endoskeleton design, your primary enemy in the Future War levels are T-900s, which visually have the much sleeker lines of the T-X rather than the T-800's more industrial dieselpunk design. They're also quite easily killed, going down after only a handful of shots from basic weapons.
* NewWorkRecycledGraphics: This game was developed concurrently with ''Fugitive Hunter: War on Terror'' and seems to be based on similar code, both being First Person Shooters with fighting game style boss fights.
* UnexpectedGameplayChange: Besides the FPS gameplay, there are a handful of fighting game style boss fights, the 1st is a MirrorMatch against a Skynet-loyal T-850 and the remainder are against the T-X in 2003.
