    This game is very fun, if you like blowing stuff up. The cool thing is get a Rocket Propelled Grenade, some C 4, or a surgical strike take it or set it and do this to the building enough times and it will crash and crum... Read Full Review

    This game is good, and has much potential, but its not great. Its worth renting, unless you like explosions immensly.

    Good game, not great.

    By RyshidenXBL | Review Date: Jan 22, 2005 | XBOX

    I purchased this the day it came out and while it's been a fun game through and through, it's not worth $50. The gameplay while fun, is repetitive and boring after a few hours of being the same character. There's really ... Read Full Review

    Burn baby, burn!

    By okcomputer666 | Review Date: Jan 20, 2005 | PS2

    Don't come looking for gang bangers or pizza deliveries in this one. Come expecting some awesome fire works! Unlike what this game was hyped as, it is not the Grand Theft Auto clone that everyone pushed it to be. It is s... Read Full Review
