This game could have been amazing, But it falls short by the fact that the story mode is painfully short, and no one plays multiplayer, there are many good things about this game though, so dont let those first few lines drive you away, The shooting is great, with John Woo's Style implemented perfectly into the game. The Dialouge and Music, Is generally very good. As i said in the first line, The story mode is painfully short, I got through it in a day or two easily, but the harder diffiiculty modes are challenging, The multi player is good fun, but no one is ever online! Most of the achievements are online related, so it makes getting your moneys worth a hard thing to do. So overall, This Game is worth it if you can get past the short story mode. Have Fun Playing!

P.S Get the Limited Edition if you can, you get a copy off John Woo's FACE/OFF
Great film!
