Ok now in looking at the box you know who is responsible for this game. Its a game based on a john woo movie starring chow yun-fat. You play the character from that movie as his story continues. This game is basically a shooted based on asia. You run around picking up a few different kinds of weapons and then just point and shoot. There is a story here where you try to save your daughter. You travel from level to level in a linear way and you kill everything in sight. Graphics here are really nice and the music.. well nothing to write home about. I would have to say that after awhile this game becomes boring. There is a part where you have a firearms face off which tends to make the game a little difficult but really adds nothing to the game. Of course it has the patented maxx payne bullet time included. There are some minor power ups so to speak but again they do not add much to this game. More than anything this game becomes very monotonous after awhile and it tends to get boring. It also suffers from the usual overkill where you have boards where the numbers of enemies just are too much. The game is fun but when you just face wave upon wave of enemies the game becomes not fun really quick. There is really nothing special here to write about as nothing new is here. Not to say that this is a bad game just nothing special here. If you have ever played maxx payne or any similar game like that then you have played this game before. The good thing is that this game should be pretty cheap now so pick it up at a good price if you can.
