What is Gamespot Thinking?

Usually I agree with Gamespot on most of there reviews, but this time I think that they may have been a bit harsh to say the least. Like you, I have been playing games for many years now and I have come across some bad games in my life, as well as some good ones. That being said, I rate this game as one of the best I have ever played. The gameplay is solid, the story line is to the point and the game is just plain fun. It has some of the coolest action that I have ever seen. And the explosions, man! Get the game and nuke a building and tell me if it is not one of the coolest things you have ever seen in a video game to date. The environment is very well done and darn near everything in the game can be destroyed. All the things that Gamespot said that makes the game "bad" are things that make this game so worth it. To sum it up, if you require a deep storyline then this game is not for you, but if you enjoy just pure, whole sale chaos and destruction then buy all means, go pick this game up, you won't regret it!
