fails as a game but is fun to play a couple of hours

User Rating: 4.4 | American McGee Presents Bad Day LA PC
By NigraPack | Review Date:
Bad Day L.A was a game that i had big expectations of, but it disappointed me really much. I Actually thought this would be a big sandbox game like GTA: San Andreas but its straight storyline all the way

Gameplay: i must admit it was fun, but only for 5 hours, in the beginning you mostly only save people which can get boring sometimes, the controls are pretty much like a bad ''console to pc'' convert and doesnt even allow to crouch, only jump,steer,fire,interact thats all you need...

Graphics: Either you love it or hate it, i liked the cartoon gore styled graphics but the game has no options for resolution change quality etc.

Sound: well i bought the polish version and it sucked because they silenced the speech so people can read the subtexts...

Value: buying is not a option

It got good humour, great videos and very limited gameplay, il probably replay it sometime... the game HAD POTENTIAL
