  1. I can't even recommend this game for fans of the movie series since it doesn't even include the principal characters.

    If Bad Boys II does have anything good for it, there is some visceral fun in plugging away at bad guys for a while that the game gets right some of the time, when the enemy isn't busy ducking behind objects that leave his head exposed or magically appearing from an empty corner of a room.
  3. Fine in short blasts for anyone looking for some mindless tension-busting target practice. However, those seeking something that challenges the grey stuff will need to look elsewhere.
  4. By far the worst aspect of the game is the horrendous control system, which flicks confusingly between third- and first-person views, while the camera sweeps all over the shop and does its best to disorient you.

    Crappy controls and the camera view is weird...almost crappy,Do Not buy this game.
  4. One of the worst PC games I have ever played, no question about that. I can't remember a single good thing about it. Just horrible in every way. Everyone who was involving making this (Blitz Games) should be ashamed of itself! Oh wait, they also made Barbie Horse Adventures... there is nothing else I need to say. Expand
