I absolutely love this game. I bought of for the steam sale and holy heck am I glad i did.

First mission. Tutorial mission. Thinking "great, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ tutorial mission all early FPS games have." Decide to punch another judge out of boredem.

"Attention to all judges, Dredd has gone rogue." Twenty judges charge through the room. I pick up a pistol from the judge I killed and start shooting back, obviously I lose but damn, it was fun.

You can arrest any civilian. Kill anyone. And there are actual consequences if you do. Like I said before, if you kill a judge, other judges will start hunting you down. If you kill civilians that aren't attacking you, your judge meter goes down. If it reaches 0 a task force is assembled to take you down. This also goes down if you accidentally kill a judge or civilian on accident so you have to be careful with your shotgun/machine guns.

Perps are really interesting and there are two ways to take them down. The first is simply kill them. The other, make them surrender and arrest them. There are two ways to arrest, shoot the gun from their hand or kill one of their friends and most of the time they'll give up (This doesn't work for elite perps though).

The boss "battles" are pretty interesting. They aren't so much battles for the most part but mini-puzzles. There's really only one boss where you have to shoot to kill, but even then there is a special gimmick associated with him.

This is everything that a Judge Dredd game should be. It's honestly my favourite FPS of all time. I'm not even the biggest Dredd fan but this game just has everything going for it. It's not at all a perfect game - it's just pure, unbridled fun.
