A Beautiful and thrilling experiance, full of diversity and twists.
The glare, how the snow clinges to your character the explosions are Hefty and forceful and the Design of the Akrid is great and all the types i have seen have been differnt in the way they act and look.
The game play is fantastic, the feeling that you are really fighting to survive in a desolate waste land with the fact that you need to kill the enemy to get heat also adds a stratigec factor to it as well (though not a very big one) All the have a differnt way you must fight them and as everyone brings a new challange its nice to see a diverse range of enemys. The Vital suits are Fantastic the designs are great and the fact that everyone is differnt and has differnt abilities which allows for new elements to be added to every level. The amount of weapons and the designs for the weapons are great, there are about 8 (about 15 if you count the VS weapons that can be picked up when on foot.) weapons for when you are on foot about 5 differnt grenades and about 6 differnt weapons for the vital suits. The ancor (a grappling hook) makes for interesting fights against the larger of the Akrid specis and in battles against the Vital Suits. You can use the Ancor to latch yourself onto the a limb of the large akrids and if you are in the right postion shoot it clean off or latch onto the battle suit and kill the driver without damageing the VS.
The diversity of the tasks you must do in each level mean it doesn't get boreing and with differnt ways to do things it opens the door for multiple play through.
The online multi player is great, with intense battles and team work being a vital factor it makes for a fast paced roller coaster of a ride.
The music and sound effects help build a very atmospheric scene and the voice acting is quite good, which is very nice considering the amount of times i have turned off voices or skipped cutscenes becasue i can't stand to hear them talk.
A great 3rd person shooter with a combonation of great exploration and combat a must have for the 360. I feel sorry for anyone who will miss out on a master peice like this.
