this game was a total let down, i actually had high hope for this game
i really wanted to play it, really wanted to like it, but nope, just a total let down why ?..lets start with the good things

love the choice to take people out by beating the crap outta them, or shooting them with a gun

love the RPG elements, AP, amour, weapon types, choose the convo like mass effect, level up etc

love the puzzles, that blew my mind looking at them

but thats where the fun ends
now for the let down

clearly out dated graphics, i can't imagine this looking any different to a PS 2 version if there was one, now i'm not gonna complain about a game due to bad graphics, i mean i still play bomberman on the snes and chrono trigger and other RPG games with worser 2D graphics. but surely theres a standard to a xbox 360/ps3 game

secondly, the combo system, you see the video clips of the game how awesome the fight scenes look ?.....you would not believe how hard it is to do it, how hard is it ?.....rapidly press the 'B' button on the xbox 360 control. yep this 1 button will punch, kick, elbow, flying knee, fly kick, jump punch, backwards punch and stealth kill, even the OLD NINTENDO with a A and B button can figure out, A is punch, B is kick, press both to jump kick, this game says screw that, thats primitive style fighting, for this game we'll conveniently have 1 button that does everything and make the combos look awesome

thirdly, the aiming is by far the worse and inaccurate shooting ever made
i don't even know why they even bother with the cross hairs, you put the bad guy in there and shoot it misses, you put the the dot in the cross hair on the bad guy you still miss, the shooting is as bad as METRO, but METRO had a reason, all your guns were low quality unless you load it with money for good accurate bullets and money was rare in that game, but this game, your a field agent, with hi tech guns, there is no shortage of money or bullets, there is no excuse for you shoot like a blind man, the only time your gun is actually useful is when their in punching range, so if their close you choose if you want to punch them or shoot them, if their far, you run up to them first then choose to punch them or shoot them, want to shoot them from far away ?....try 30 bullets, and i'm not a trigger happy guy, i aim before i shoot, i wait 5 seconds between each shot to get my aim back on the target
and to be honest this was the main reason this game failed it for me

peace out
