Blasted through the game yesterday [on PC], about 10 hour campaign (on medium difficulty setting).
Main reason I got it for PC is that I wanted to play it with Mouse/Keyboard, but ... I strongly recommend anyone thinking about getting it to use a gamepad instead. M+KB menu navigation is mapped to rather illogical keys: Enter is "open menu" (like you'd expect to be escape), F is "back" in menus and space is "OK", can be remapped but then you also remap in-game actions. I also had a lot of problems with slowdowns and stuff - and worst of all, input lag - which especially made quick-time events almost impossible to perform.
Voice control worked reasonably well (and was pretty interesting, despite being rather limited and a bit slow). I thought interacting with my team was pretty interesting, though I'm pretty curious about how much the story branches (or doesn't), as it feels like parts of what happened was very much influenced by my decisions in places.
There's a fair variety to enemies. The combat never felt like a chore - even the sections that felt rather unfair/difficult.
Fun game, pretty interesting story, but really bad quick-time events (though there are only 3-5 of them in the game). Last quick-time event almost had me putting the game down. Like I said, I suffered a fair bit of input lag, and some of the fast-moving quicktime events became a game of chance (the last one failed 8 times before I managed to get past it). I enjoyed myself, except for a few moments of frustration. I may give it another playthrough on a higher difficulty - though the idea of going through those quicktime events again is not very appealing.
Oh, and a tip: In the configuration tool, there's a setting for showing either Keyboard-buttons prompts or Gamepad prompts. Make sure to set it to whatever you are using, or you'll end up being confused when it asks you to push RB on your keyboard, as I was, initially :)
It's a port, and a pretty poor one - but despite that the game is fully playable and pretty good :)
