I was actually surprised by this game. I bought it because I heard it was going to be de-listed, and it sat in my library until this afternoon. While its design is a little dated nowadays, and it may show its influences often, it remixes them in a way that I really enjoyed, and I think that a similar current game could be very good.

The combat can be slow, and aiming a pain for certain weapons, but all in all, is solid. The vertical cover is a cool addition to cover that I think is underused. If there is an x axis and a y axis, why not a z axis?

It took me a long time to get used to the jetpack controls, but by the end I felt like a flying fox!

The biggest issue with playing the game was that I had a vsync-related crashing problem, like most people, at the boulders in the beginning. It seems that everyone has their own fixes for it, but none of them worked for me. What I ended up doing was turning vsync to a fixed 30 fps, and it never crashed after that. Hope that helps someone!

It feels like a mix of Gears of War and Uncharted. A bit repetitive at times, but using the jet pack is very fun.
