Just downloaded this game for 360 a few days back. I had high hopes after the IGN review (9.5), but damn. This game is way too much.
Like ridiculously high octane all the time with no chance to stop and breathe. The story is absolutely retarded despite the fact that the cutscenes are pretty long.
I dunno man. Like it is fun and all, but it is just way too wacky for me. The review was licking its balls for being so creative, and I guess it is, but it seems more like they just took whatever inane concept they had off the top of their head and mixed it into the game, creating an extremely incoherent and directionless mess.
If you have ever seen the movie Crank, you'll have a pretty good idea of what this game plays like. On the surface that sounds badass but in practice it is just way too overwhelming, and I had to take a breather every 20 minutes or so due to mental exhaustion.
