This game rocks back and forth between mildly enjoyable and an utterly embarrassing mess. The slow motion feature is useless, the cover mechanic is useless since you regenerate health almost instantly, the graphics range from fair to absurd, it's unbalanced, repetitive and dull. It's hard to get excited for the next battle when the previous battle was exactly the same. The sound is atrocious (the gatling guns sound like quickly popping bubble wrap instead of fearsome weapons like in GRAW2). Overall, whatever enjoyment I got from the game's pretending to be "The Club" (which was a far better example of this kind of game) it was ultimately sucked away by feeling like the enemies guns were filled with spitballs instead of bullets and the downright embarrassing and utterly juvenile story.… Expand

Oh don't get me started. It was fun for the first 10 minutes. Then bordem ensues. The repetitive action is only broken up by small side-missions that are more like a full fledged task in some ways. I will say that the array of weapons and upgrades for "Fitty" were somewhat decent. The dialogue spoken by 50 and his partner was just the unrecognizable dribble we call slang, filled with humorless swears for added "gang-ness." I will also say that the cover system and graphics looks like they were taken right outta Gears, but plastered with pure defects. The story was intuitive. But one diamond-encrusted skull does not make this game a beauty.… Expand

Games are supposed to be fun, and this game delivers that in spades. Explosions? Check. Over-the-top story? Check. Hilarious dialogue? Check. Nearly non-stop action? Check. Seems like a lot of folks just need to lighten up and remember that if something is entertaining, then it's worth its weight in crystal skulls.

There is something to be said about a game that is fun. Why is it....that every game today HAS TO SO REALISTIC? Was Megaman realitc? NO. How about Mario? NO. This game is not a good buy for you must-have realism fans. It's got a crazy story, tons of "un-realistic" explosions and more Fiddy-Cent smart-mouthed dialogue than you could fit on a rap album....but man....is it fun. Lighten up people and just have some mindless fun!… Expand

This is one of the funnest games I've played in years. It is a complete rip off of one of the greatest series of all time, Gears of War. There isnt the epic feel or production values of Gears, the middle east isnt nearly as varied or pretty as Gears, the enemies suck and aren't nearly as many or as cool as Gears enemies, playing as 50 sucks, and the game lacks the awesomeness of the chainsaw, gore, and curb stomping, but it has the near perfect controls and camera of Gears, its faster paced and it even improves a little on what I thought were the flaws of Gears. He runs a bit quicker and can aim a bit quicker when zoomed in, you can hold 4 guns instead of 3, grenades work better, and I always thought it would be cool if you could purchase weapons and upgrades and if there was a scoring system in Gears (which adds a lot of replay). As much as I hate 50 as a person, musician, and video game character, this game was a blast. After playing the craptacular controls of Killzone 2 this was a pleasant change.… Expand

When a game is fun, you have to recognize it. I don't get what people are saying about a game being dull and/or repetitive. Most shooters are like that to some extent. This game has a lot of replay value, even without an online multiplayer mode, the coop experience is neat, although a split screen mode would have been the icing on the cake. As someone already said, if you want your games to be realistic, this is not your game. This is an Arcade 3rd Person Shooter, and the fun lies in that fact alone :)… Expand

this is a good solid 3rd person shooter and has all the charactoristics of a good one. it plays like a gears of war with its own finishing move systems called counterkills, these are very fun. its a ludachris storyline but the gamplay is great, there are no bugs or glitches and the graphics are ausome. the story is a little short but that doesnt ruin the game. this is a fun game that you should consider, it brings its own flavor to the table… Expand
