Customer Reviews

A fun game with some drawbacks.....
I've read a few reviews of this game from people who have had a tough time with the games tone. Yes, the two main characters sometimes say some really bizarre things but personally I found this incredibly amusing. I don't think the game takes itself too seriously and as a casual gamer it doesn't expect you to either. That's the trick with this game, you have to treat it with a grain of salt. I can't remember a game that had me laughing out loud as much as this one did. I think it really adds to the games overall feel. The dialouge is just hilarious. And it works. Combine this with the decent gameplay and stunning visuals and you have a game that is well worth the 20 bucks you can get for used. Sure, it's not halo or gears, but I don't think it's trying to be. It's a fun game that delivers good action and an entertaining story that just makes you keep playing. It's fun as heck.

Very Good
I rented this game, came home and played it. I loved it. I am a kid and haven't played many M games. I played it for a few minutes and you could already tell there where bad words in the game. The graphics are great. One of the other great things about the game is that you can earn money and use it to buy more guns and armor. I would recomend this game to anyone who likes 3rd person shooters. Another great thing about the game is that you can be ducking behind a barrier and just put your hand up and shoot which I haven't seen in any other game. The last great thing is that if you're next to your partner and press A they will interact with you, but if you press the Right Trigger you will wack,headbut,and hit each other in fun! Overall I think this is ok for kids over 11 only if you're not afraid of trash talk.

bad language
The game is awesome. THe coop gameplay takes the game to a whole new level i played it and beat it several times with my friends. The Single player game is same a coop but it just isn't as fun.

Although I loved the game the language was over the top. It totally ruined the game having that much cursing... i mean i can handle a little her and there but i think every cut scene had one curse word or another. I was unnessicary and took away from the game. I don't care what anyone else says there is no need to put anything like that in a video game. If I had know it was going to be like that I would not have purchasing the game.

Overall the gameplay was good so if you aren't afriad of offensive language I reccomend you buy the game. I would not have bought this game for my kids given what i know now though.
