A Good game but not a legend....

Though I have not spent alot of time in the game yet, I will be trying to do everything I can in it. I can only speak for the single player part of the game.

GRAPHICS - 7/10 The graphics are good and show some flare at times but falls a little bellow todays standards. There are nice additions like bullet holes on the windows of the vehicle when your making an escape, or the effects of a large explosion and how the area becomes dark for a few seconds is really nice, but overall there is alot of missing polish.

SOUND - 7/10 I would rate the sound higher but there is alot of repetitive one liners and it might annoy some but for most you will be too busy blowing things up to notice. The standard vehicle sounds and weapon sounds are done well enough. The explosions are nice.

STORY/PLOT - 5/10 The story/plot is only subpar, and you can tell there wasn't much time spent on it. It works well enough but in this generation of gaming there should be more of a story integrated into the mindless fray of a video game

FUN - 8.5/10 Though I would like to give this a 10, I just can't due to the numerous bugs and technical glitches. It is extremely fun to play and even better if you can look past the glitches. The AI is horrible and I can honestly say I have seen better AI in old xbox games. At times you really find yourself getting annoyed at the technical problems you encounter and wonder why they did not take a little longer in beta testing to work out the bugs.

In closing, Though it does not live up to the standards set by the really great games of the next generation, it is a very fun and destructive game and for most people who enjoy these types of games I do recommend it.
Thank-you
