I'd be happier if one of them didn't victimize the Giants, but all the upsets in the NFL yesterday were an awesome example of why I enjoy tackle football so much. The undefeated Packers getting their first loss on the same day the winless Colts tallied their first victory? The only thing that could have been cooler than that is if that happened because the two were playing each other.

I enjoyed it, it was nothing great, but it was good fun. The texture popping issue for me was not that major. If you judge it by the very start of the game and when you first start playing, you will have it wrong. It seems after the games has loaded up and ran for a little, it must cache more in memory or something, because it became a much less of an issue to me; though sometimes still apparent. The low res textures for lots of things were annoying, but not to bad over all.
It was a simple fun game, I enjoyed it. But damn, did it end quick and easy like everybody said. Before the final mission you get a bad ass weapon, and there is tons of ammo around for it on that mission, plus I had 100 advanced wing sticks. Between the two, when it come to fighting the "hoard" *cough* of baddies at the end, I was able to just essentially take them all out by just pointing my mouse at them and hitting one button. That was rather disappointing. There was only really "one" boss in the game. I applaud them for trying something different and not having a big boss battle at the end, but it was a major let down.
I paid $20 for it, and I will not complain. If money is not tight for you, that is well worth the price. I guess I was really let down by the game. It felt like a mishmash of other games, as if id was just cribbing elements from other popular franchises but never really exploring them fully. I could have liked it more if they had gone whole hog with some of those things, a fully fleshed out explorable world for example. That at least would have justified the racing a bit more. Conversations and questing with NPCs were so rudimentary that it felt shoehorned, they could have gone a lot further with that as well. Everything just felt half assed in implementation but oddly polished on the surface, like a spit shined turd.
I liked that the AI was decent, it's rare to see these days. Graphically the game was impressive, animations in particular were excellent. The sound and music weren't bad but they were just kind of there, I never really got into it. The value proposition for me at launch was terrible, the game barely functioned for the first week and the multiplayer was a non-starter. |
