    That's like trying to prove a girl is hot by attempting to find a "better" picture. If the girl is hot, then she's gonna be looking fine in every picture she is in. If the game is good, then it should look good at every angle.

    I feel people only white knight APB because they need to justify their horrible purchasing choice.

    No, what they showed is what the game is. I've bough it and have played it.

    I play in a top criminal group, and have around 100 hours played. I'm not justifying anything, I just want to see a game I love to play succeed. Haters gunna hate.

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

    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.

    you've also play the game for more than 100 hours.
    in any other game you'd have 200,000 kills by then.

    I paid 50 bucks for APB and I feel like I only got $15 out of it.

    Even after watching some of that video, it still looks like a bad game.
