It could have been great, but turned out to be a waste of time.

After seeing people shout abuse about this game the day before i bought it, i wasn't expecting a amazing game. It didn't turn out to be a amazing game, but that said it was pretty good, at first anyway. The controls are ok, i have played with worse, they are definetly not perfect though. What this game does to you though, is unforgivable. A bit more than half way through the game, you get a text message on your phone, its from this stupid girl that follows you around . Basicly what she says is "FIND EVIL ROOTS!" and what they are is these stupid looking black things that stick out of the ground. So what you have to do is basicly drive around for maybe an hour or two, burning these stupid things, that are placed all around central park. The driving in this game is horrible, which makes this part even worse. The game would constantly p*** me off by glitching my car into trees and then throw hundreds of enemies at me, all of which began tearing my car apart. But i managed to get through this horrible part of the game, and after this i got some pretty fun puzzles to do before the end. Which brings me to the thing i hate the most...the ending. I'm not going to spoil it for you people who havn't played it, but its awful. The worst ending i have ever seen in a game, the whole game just seems like a waste of time after watching it. You are still sort of confused of whats going on, but the most annoying thing is it just ends and you don't get to find out what happens to the world at all. So would i recommend it?. No, maybe if you are really bored you should pick it up, but trust me after going threw some of the better parts of the game it all turns into a large pile of poo. Oh wait, the graphics are ok i suppose, so maybe the game won't look like poo, but it definetly will seem like it.
