I have never been a big fan of Third Person shooters and of late shooters in general have bored me due to how samey they all feel. But I started hearing a lot of people saying how refreshing this one was and, as a huge Cyber-punk fan I figured I'd give it a go.
For anyone who hasn't played it, do so immediately. The story is excellent, the gameplay exciting and for once the guns feel suitably powerful when usually the basic guns in games are pathetically weak and pointless.
I enjoyed all 14 hours of it and look forward to playing through again to get the other endings
Agreed, I completed it yesterday and enjoyed it immensely. Did you watch the FMV after the credits, very cool?
I really enjoyed the story, a bit Blade Runner, a bit I Robot, it's actually one of my fave Sega games for some time.
My one and only gripe is that the voice recognition element didn't work very well for me even though I calibrated the Mic and reduced the background noise etc it still wouldnt recognise my responses very often, but it least it gives you the option to switch to button-press responses which i did after awhile and actually started earning the trust of my squad.
The demo on XBLA didnt really set me on fire but playing the full game was a very rewarding experience.
and in fairness it had it's ups and downs, the worst of it was a lack of focus on main characters. You only play as each character the once and some characters seem to be criminally under-used.
