A joy to play and a breath of fresh air in the gaming world.

This game was the first of its kind that I played and it came as a breath of fresh air. I was quite surprised at how much real FUN I had playing this game. Usually I get so caught up with the achievements of games or not missing a single entity of the game that I get bogged down on the details of a game, but I ended up playing this game through just enjoying playing. There's no penalty for dying, or score card that you want to keep up to show your friends how many headshots you got etc. It just played through as pure entertainment. I loved sneaking up to a guy and doing a silent takedown then being able to "mark" other bad guys and take them out in "execution" mode. It was thrilling and the storyline was fun to go through. I wasnt a big fan of the ending...probably because I was thinking, "What? Thats it?" But all in all this game is one of the best I've played just for a fun run through. It reminded me of the first time I played Max Payne and how cool that slow motion gig was. Definitely worth checking out.
