I felt APB didn't get a fair shake in the quick look. A lot of people called it boring, and the combat bad. While not a perfect game here is a better look at APB.

its a shooting game where you almost never shoot anyone, and you have to pay a monthly fee.
you probably like farmvile too.

That didn't really make the game look that much better. For one, you have to figure; is this a realistic view of what your average player is going to see and experience upon logging into the game for the first time? No, probably not. Next you have the fact that it showed off how bad the combat can be in the game - for example, during the car part it showed off that driving is, most of the time, nothing more than a liability, it makes you a sitting target for others pretty much. Second it showed that apparently there's some kind of gun in the game that, basically, let's you one-shot people (and then arrest them); that doesn't look fun, that looks cheap and obnoxious "Well, I was killing you, but then you shot in my general direction and I couldn't do anything and you came over and arrested me like it was nothing and I just obediently let you handcuff me."
I'm not saying you can't like the game; that's your opinion and your right to choose what you like and dislike - but just because you like something that doesn't automatically make it 'good' and anyone that has a different opinion is just being 'unfair'. I mean, take the Matrix Online for example. That was not a good, well built game. It was a functional game with people that really enjoyed it and made a good time with it, but it wasn't inherently a good game on its own. APB is probably very much the same way; for your average player the game isn't going to be good, it's not going to be all that fun or exciting. For some other people, though, they'll see parts of it that they like and be able to look over or live with the downsides of the game because they're still having fun with it, regardless of whether or not it's inherently an amazing game - and good for them for being that way.
" @trophyhunter said:you've also play the game for more than 100 hours.I have 1500 kills, but hey I only play the game what do I know." its a shooting game where you almost never shoot anyone, and you have to pay a monthly fee. you probably like farmvile too. "

in any other game you'd have 200,000 kills by then.
" I feel people only white knight APB because they need to justify their horrible purchasing choice. "It's true :(
I paid 50 bucks for APB and I feel like I only got $15 out of it.
