This game is the best I have played so far this year. it is a true sandbox game with amazing graphics. It has brought fun back to video games. The story is cool and you get to choose who you do or don't align with. Everything is destuctable that you see and you can enter any vehicle in the game from motorcycles to tractor trailers. Also it is really fun to watch the nuclear strike. I have never seen anything like it in gaming. I was floored by the explosion. I just want to keep dropping nuclear bombs. The enmy ai isn't retarted either, they actually are smart and try to circle around you. I have not played co op yet but I am really looking forward to it and do some ownage with my friend. Some people have compared this to Battlefield. I personnaly did not enjoy Battlefield especially the online game types. This is a much better put together game. Poeple looking for the epic game, what were you exactly looking for? This is a great fun game bottom line. It isn't put out to be the epic game, but a fun sandbox game. Bottom line.
UPDATE*** The glitches in the game can be VERY annoying. The game is still fun. Too short I think as I could probably finish it in a few hours, but doing all of the side quests will take some time.
