What a ride! A great game!
The story missions are a blast, but the side missions are a bit lacking. Be prepared to trudge along in your vehicle on the same kinds of planets, going into the same 3 kinds of buildings over and over again...
Aside from the repetition and some slow graphical loading, this game is highly recommended. It feels like you're playing a summer blockbuster!
This game is unbelievable good, deep, enchanting, intelligent, etc. My opinion is a little biased though...since I always liked Bioware s games. But this game is really the tip of the iceberg, even if you dont like the RPG elements it is still a decent shooter...not a Gears of War, but neverthess suprisingly entertaining.
This game is a must have title! Be prepared to take a week or 2 off, in order to play this game, because once you get started, it is difficult to stop...
