Possibly hated because it has a selective appeal, or maybe because people were just worshipping too much GTA at the time

I am one of the few who love this game, and the reasons are simple: there is a ton of fun weapons and grenades, (the puke grenade is a blast when thrown at hoards of people.) and the throwing button is one of the most fun and addicting things ive ever played around with. Almost all of the objects around you are destructable, and its incredibly fun to throw a guy through them and watch his ragdoll flip and fly around. The fighting in this game i thought was really fun, and the levels are very replayable. Basically a level puts you in an area, and you have to get from Point A, to Point B. (its a little bit more complicated than that) and loads of guys come at you, and you can kung-fu them or make them puke gallons with the puke grenade, and then when they are dead, you can throw them all over the map.

I'd recommend buying this game if its $20 bucks new, but it seems like the amount of people who hate it means that it may be in a bargain bin. So if you check your bargain bin and find it, i strongly recommend getting this.
