Well,I've played the game from 14:00 today and I've just stopped...It's very entertaining and very chaotic game. I didn't like the story, it's too lame and very slow...Sometimes it takes a lot to unlock a new node in the web. During this, the gameplay takes it's place. As I said, the game is really chaotic, there're times, where I cannot understand where Alex ( the main character) is in this blood bath, but it's very beautiful at some point. Also there're a lot of ways to fight a single type of enemy: crash him under a car, throw something on him, slam it, do some wrestling moves etc. It's really fun actually, but It gets boring, because doing these things for, like, 10 hours, is very dumb. There are a lot of movements and skills (oh, yeah, the skill are too much, I felt stupid, when I started to upgrade my character, there're nearly 200 skills...WTF???) and it gets little confusing. But some of them are really necesary, you cannot play the game without them, or if you don't have them, the game gets really dumb. If you have the most of them, the game gets very easy, and the only thing, you have to do, is to fight 2 hours with some group of hunters (those stragne mutants, that come from the so called "Hives"), millitary, or some other foes, and then to run for 10 minutes from the one part of the city to the other, just to unlock a node...well that's really boring and makes me angry (just like Assassin's Creed)...But as I said in the title, notning unexpected...the game is some strange mix of "Assassin's Creed" and "Devil May Cry", I wasn't exprecting something better, or someting worse. The graphics could be better (the city looks awlful in the distance from some skyscrapers ) and some sound effects are really strange and unusual...Although, I think that the game should be played from everyone, because it's not something, that comes out every day (some peole told me, that the game looks like "GTA" in some "PoP"-style, well probably)
