Whoever said blowing things up never gets old is so wrong. And since thats all there is to do this game loses it quick..

This game was SO over hyped. Yeah there's dozens of vehicles and missions and stuff to destroy, but when all those things lack any quality they get old quick. Most of the vehicles are boring and not fun to drive. The physics in this game are so wack. In GTA when you drive a sports bike you feel like you're driving a sports bike. In this game a bike feals like you're riding a train. This missions are all but interesting. The story is just plain stupid, and I hate how they based it all on oil profits in Venezuala. May as well just thrown it out in the Middle East. You can only hold two weapons at a time, so unless you have a bunch of nice cargo drops its impossible to do any creative killing. The voice clips that play throughout you journies are SO heavily repeated you'd be tempted to turn the sound off so you don't have to hear that crap anymore. The Multiplayer was a good idea, but with the 500 pace tether between players someone can come in and really screw you over. I was racing through a gravel pit with only a few seconds to spare and right before i completed the mission the other idiot ran in the opposite direction and caused me to lose. I never let anyone in my game again after that. So what's the real flare to this game? Running around an endless battlefield that really lacks a whole lot to battle and shooting or destroying whatever you see. This can get a bit mind numbing after a while. YOu will come too hours later and wonder what you just accomplished and it will have been nothing at all. Blowing this up is fun but lacks creativity and gets very old very soon. Beyond that this game has nothing to offer.
