I love this game...and I f**king hate this game! When it works and you're speeding through this striking, sparse, sterile and yet somehow beautiful city, the sound of the wind rushing past and the sun gleaming off whitewashed rooftops and chrome ventilation shafts, it's a truly exhilirating experience.

When it doesn't work...when you miss that tricky jump you just can't seem to judge for the 5th time, when you're forced into clunky combat with only your bare hands against heavily armored SWAT teams with automatic weapons, when you're stuck in some pokey corridor and for the life of you just can't see the way forward, the game sucks big hairy donkey balls.

And yet, it somehow compels you to push on. I'm really looking forward to completing this game, and damn I'll be glad when it's over.
