    Terrible! Don't buy it...don't even download it. Waste of time and money. Laggy even if your computer is is fast. It's completely bugged. Controls suck so bad. Sensitivity sucks even at max. Avoid. If you really want to play it get the console ones. Controls are much better with them.

    Very average, but possessed a HUGE potential to outrank even the GTA series. Problems: the graphics look crap, environments are sparse (for NYC! there's no peak-hour traffic or gridlock), some clipping issues, the swearing is beyond excessive, but the biggest kill-joy is the controls. The controls are dreadful... which makes hand-to-hand combat especially frustrating. But eventually u learn to work around them. The auto-aim makes this seem like a console-port. BUT... with all the negatives out of the way, it is fun driving around NYC busting the balls of street gangsta's. The good cop/bad cop feature is especilly amusing. But the best feature is Mariska Hargitay (Olivia Benson from Law & Order SVU) and Laurence Fishburne (Morpheus) do major voices roles.... so you really can feel like a Cop cleaning up the streets. :D Fun, but dont expect a GTA-killer title.… Expand

    It was nice being a cop for once , having ppl giving away their car... freewilled. using violence and no cops bugging you cause you wear a badge. the capabilities were high too , you could ask bribe money , go to a gym. It was nice.

    On paper, it's got the potential to be more than a match for "San Andreas"; in practice, it's nowhere near it.

    The PC port feels very sloppy overall, almost as if Aspyr simply got it working and then left it at that. If you're interested in this game, check out either of the console versions.

    If you're a fan of the Sim City series, then give this a look. It's a nice diversion for a few hours, but I really can't advise spending a lot of money to buy it. You'll be more than happy if you play for a week, so try renting it.
