Fun at 1st, but then it just turned into sandbox smash and grab game. Extremely useful if you're looking to totally dismember up to 20 innocent people at once on the crowded streets of Manhattan.
The whole idea of an experiment gone wrong was kinda typical. The characters abilities were kick ass consuming people and producing claws, a bladed arm sword, & hammerfists. I liked the free roam map. The games story of a viral outbreak is okay but it lacked gameplay. Beside doing the story missions, doing tedious time trial missions becomes dull. I found myself just killing ass much as I could before I was gunned down. Overall a great game. ****
A boring story, uninteresting characters, dated graphics... but holy hell if it isn't one of the most fun games I've played in years. Simply the aspect of all the destruction you can cause will keep you hooked until the end. Games rarely let you jump from the top of a skyscraper like a goddamn missile into the traffic, causing hundreds of horrible deaths as you hit the ground and cause a huge shockwave. Also you get points for it! What more can you ask?
Considering the timing on the release of this game I have to admit it could barely compete with Infamous and felt like a spastic clone of the recent Spider-Man games.
