Cool explosions, great graphics and exciting gameplay makes this action/shooter more fun to play then you may think.
-Shooting at enemies can be really fun also, they fall over stuff and take the hit hard when your bullet strikes them; some even get up off of the ground and proceed to attack again even after you shoot them. Your comrades, on the other, hand can be a little slow in following you, sometimes clipping walls/doors/etc. or standing out in the open taking enemy fire. But overall, they seem to always catch up and assist you when possible.
-The destructibility of objects in the game is quite fun and addictive, it doesn't have as powerful a physics engine as some of newer games today, but it will not fail to give you a satisfying thrill. The graphics have a crisp feel to them, and the brightness of the color is just right. And a gritty atmosphere makes shooting glass out of windows, blowing stuff up and laying rounds down on an enemy that much more fun.
Detail is worthy of mention as well: individual pieces of glass/debris, bullet holes in walls/cars/etc. and an outstanding arrangement of weapons are the signature of this game.
-The game works perfectly with the Xbox & Xbox 360, in fact I would recommend buying it even if you have a newer system, the experience is to rich to be missed; the game will not disappoint.
