I lost interest entirely about halfway through.
Good:
-Cool Explosions
-Plenty of opportunities to blow stuff up.
Bad:
-Horrid AI
-Very repetitive and uninteresting
-Causing destruction usually gets you penalized
The handbrake on your car doesn't even slow you down. It only gives your car soap-bar handling. So if you're first reflex is to use the handbrake in hairy situations, you're screwed.
It's pretty hard to die. I jumped out of a helicopter a few hundred feet up and survived. You don't even lose health if your vehicle explodes. You can run around in the middle of an enemy-infested base, do your objective, run out of it, without even killing anybody and you will not die.
It feels like a Michael Bay movie. Filled with explosions, bad dialogue, and a bad plot.
The characters AND their accents are all annoying.
Don't buy this game. Don't even rent it. It was very disappointing.
