My friends and I started making Youtube videos regarding video games, we usually post a video every Friday about gaming news but we are starting to do reviews and previews, this is our first review, so check it out and tell us what you think.  And if you like it make sure to watch our other videos as well. = 

Damn I didn't know there are hacks for APB already. I'm on the boat of wanting to disgustingly say, "damn hackers" but don't because I feel like it's an easy way out too.

Whoa! An actual good review!

Not too shabby, thanks for the high lights of the games. I'm starting to get a good idea on whether I should pick this up or not by the text and video reviews I'm seeing about. I'm leaning to "no" for the moment, though as the match-making and lag improves - I may make a purchase.

The matchmaking will become more useful once everyone finds their niche or appropriate skill level.  Threat levels fluctuate and show your actual skill, except when it comes to hackers.  But still; the game has just released so the threat levels the matchmaking uses are still not a true representation of people because almost everyone is still increasing their threat level up to where they should be.

Yeah I feel that the matchmaking will even out once higher lvl players get better guns and are at more of an advantage compared to lower lvls.  And when it comes to hackers I havent seen one in a very very very very very long time.  They are almost non existent.  But this game is seriously addicting.  I stay up until 9 in the morning then go to sleep wake up go to work and then play some more.  I cant stop!

I'm glad you guys liked the review, and thanks for following me! I will make sure to post all of our videos on my blog starting now. =)

Definitely seems like one of the better video reviews I've seen by amateurs.  One smallish complaint is how long it takes for you to go through all the mechanics of the game.  IMO in a video review format or podcast those facts should be brought up only to support your opinion of the game.  Like 'because servers only allow so many people... blah blah blah'.  It's just that describing those facts can get boring, especially to people who already know the basic mechanics.  Since you're not exactly mainstream it's not like a lot of people that don't understand games will be watching.  I know that can be hard to get down, even us guys at BonusEXP are still working on that.
 
As far as APB itself, I don't think those guys have any excuse charging monthly fees for the game, for the kind of not-really-a-MMO it is.

Good review.  You said you played with people you knew - do you think that is a big reason why you enjoyed it so much? Would it be as fun if you play with random strangers or even "lone-wolf" style?
