now i was really excited about this game, i remember watching the first videos of it at e3 07 and remembered peter say you will never see the same move twice and will not master all of the combos. i also remember stuff that got left out ie bar fights and using the environment (chandelier and chairs) to fight.
I got the game the day it came out, special addition and put it in...

From the start it did not look like an up to date graphics game, which was disappointing, then the camera can get annoying but as a gamer and a player who was hyped i quickly got use to this game. As you play on and find (spoiler) there is no armour to wear, it disappoints some more. As you play on it is fun the combat is really well done. Yet overall it is very short which really is unacceptable. to say they were working on it for ages and came out with this and the side missions are a joke, there c**p.

However if your thinking of getting it, i ask you what other games are there which is like this? All the xbox360 focuses on is shooting basically. You can't get games like this anymore, which is why i gave it such a good score and gamespot too. It didn't deserve that for many reasons, i haven't mentioned glitches because i was lucky not to have any but there that as well. This is a unique game for the Xbox, some people might say oblivion is like this but no, oblivion is just not as fun. You want to enjoy a game and this brings you enjoyment, the old school combat with combos and button bashing. Games like this need to make a return. They went out a few years back because there was so many but they need to come back for the simple reason is there fun. We need more action/adventure where you get more choices what to wear, what weapons to use and have secret ones which are more powerful.
This game may convince people to make more action/adventure similar but at the time this game is needed. However i reccomend buying it preowned for cheaper, its not worth £40 or £30.

If this game was in a string of similar games 6/10
Due to its uniqueness in this time of fps 8/10
