The game itself overall is a lot of fun, and the online coop is wicked, haven't been seeing enough of it in games.

While I'm not a huge obsessive fan of plot, this is almost exactly like Future Cop LAPD in the sense that you get "This person is doing this to support this person, go kill them" and that's it. A little more to tie the game together would be nice. As well, despite the commander barking at you the ENTIRE game you end up having to learn everything by trial and error, which overall is fine seeing as it's a short game.

My other gripe is the control scheme. It's setup as a 3rd person shooter, but the jumping and travelling mechanics really needed a more dynamic camera system. Some of the rooftop races had me thinking I was playing an old school Tomb Raider. I think it could also use a quick turn around button, while you can take a great amount of bullets it's annoying to not be able to immediately smite your opponents behind you.

Everything else however is really fun. The driving, the powering up, the destruction and mayhem. As well, it's excellent for those people who just love to explore the landscape and find new nooks and crannies.

I'd say however to give it a rental. While the online coop is great, it's not enough to keep the game fresh for even the next few weeks.

Learning Curve: Takes a while
