    As the title sort of says , I am quite interested in what review Jeff gives this game , I watched a video over at 1up where they talked about the same poor mechanics Jeff spoke about in the quick look but said that the story held it together enough and gave it a B+ which I would consider a decent score . I plan on getting the game on steam once I have finished Red dead and played some more of Modnation Racers . But I would like to see what his take on the game is .  I guess this would get a 3*. I don't think he can score a game 2* because It does seem like a compitent game . Just with a few issues.

    I don't love the game. It's quite laughable in many ways. Enfuriating in others. Overall - it's an outdated and unpolished turd of a game. 
     
    Despite all of its issues, I did enjoy myself. Even more interestingly. I'm currently playing it again. I'm enjoying my second playthrough more than my first one. 
     
    It's a horrible game, in a good way. Also - the developer' intentions were pure and it shows. They didn't want to deliver an outdated and unpolished turd.

    I am currently playing this game and while the shooting mechanics are a tough shell to crack, once you're accustomed and learned the ropes to it, they are not that bad, you just have to understand how to make it work for you as it's just not point and shoot. 
     
    the RPG/Dialogue, on the other hand, is excellent. Engaging storylines and voice acting. 
     
    so it really depends what you are looking for in the game.

    I can definitely see Jeff giving it 2 stars.

    I'm saying 3 stars. 2 seems a little harsh for a game that still has a lot of merits.

    I dunno, Jeff seemed really into it and he seemed dissappointed that he didn't get to show any dialogue stuff. I'd say a high 3 stars.
