So. Yes.
After waiting for four days, waiting for someone to convince me to finally get this game. For my mind was slowly eating me up, constantly saying "Spend... SPEND!", while the rest of this forsaken world kept saying "Well... It's okay. Get it. Wait, on the other hand, don't.". So, ignorance ahoy and I bought the game as soon as the stores opened.

And I fairly enjoyed the first, cheesy moments of the game...
... 'Til, ehh...

Well, I fell through the goddamn map as I jumped out of my car. And I restarted the game as the last checkpoint was the actual beginning of the game. So, I got back into and started to notice the game's very basic flaws. Some stuff which I hoped they would've considered STANDARD FEATURES by now...

First of all, why can't I crouch? Dude's got kneecaps, why can't I crouch?
Second, car damage practically doesn't exsist. Sure, at 40% HP the car disintegrates - But c'mon, even Just Cause had better damage.
Third, the game reminds me waaaayyyyy too much of Just Cause.
Fourth, while I have to say, the driving is a major improvement from Just Cause, but the cars have no suspension at all. Any bump will either wreck you, or slingshot you away in mid-air.

Okay, I'm being too harsh. Wait, I'm not that harsh. Fuck, I haven't even started yet.
The game has a sad excuse of a resource system; Go and collect oil. Then u can haz airstrike.
The game uses that wretched True Crime penalty system. "YOU KILLED A CIVILLIAN DUDE! >:(". Look, blame me for driving 155MPH, left to right, all over the place on a six-lane expressway. But if only them two motherfucking morons who jumped into my grill are just as wrong as I am. Giving me a 10K penalty is bullshit.

Speaking of idiotic AI...
It's amazing.

I always say in pretty much any game, the AI has the survival instincts of a suicide bomber.
But, really. That statement, really, Pandemedic pwn'd me.

There's these missions for the UP Faction, where you need to catch, or kill a specific person, tucked away in some small village. Sure, I did a few of 'em. Always trying to capture them, as it gives you bonus money and eventually unlocks an achievement.

After two successfull captures, the third target of mine, cooked a grenade, threw it against a fence killed himself.
The fifth target, after capturing another one, he threw a grenade against a oil tanker, which he was standing next to.
The sixth, he jumped off a fucking cliff!

So, there's atleast one achievement I'll never gain. These dudes are suicidal. They kill themselves even before I can reach them.

But the AI is really dumbassed. This time I'm not overreacting. There's these bunkers, inhabbited by an unlimited number of RPG soldiers that fire through small windows. One soldier's aim was so terrific from inside that he blew the building up, killing himself and six others.

All in all, there's alot wrong with this game yes. Alot of glitches, and bugs. Alot of stupid design choices. Shitty driving and flying sections.

But does that make the game any less fun?
No.

Atleast, leveling an entire village with a carpet-bomb, for only one target - Awesome.
Pasting five C4's to your sporty sedan, and bailing it into a oil tanker next to your target - Epic.
Levelling an entire city, and the authorities not giving a damn for it - Win.
World in Conflict styled support, with GTA gameplay - Great.

Meh, can't really speak for anyone when I say it's a great game. But hey, it's a bit like Crackdown with bigger bangs.
