After the first few hours of the controversial shooter, being so not for its content, sales or even when looking with an open mind... reviews, I found it a simple yet fun action game, in the manner of a blockbuster flick. Sure it has its flaws but sometimes reviewers forget a key element. "Oh no! It doesn't look good!" - I think theres many games that don't look that good either, going to be awhile for another Gears guys. "Gunplay is broken!" - No, its realistic, I mean thats what happens when you fire a weapon, kickback! Plus its just like Stalker's gunplay and yet they praised that game... "Characters our unlikeable!" - Erm... opinion... not fact... I know they're technically the badguys but meh, don't lie and tell me you've never cheered for the away team? Sure its not what was advertised but its still fun. Simple to pick up and its an interesting if bumpy ride. And that whole thing about Jeff? Some people are just plain pathetic when that bombshell crash-landed. You never played the game, you never met Jeff, you never cared before yet all those 1.0s? And guess what, NOBODY LISTENED! I waited and played the demo via Xbox Live and at my friends house and I'm glad I didn't sink as low into mobmantality...
