Play Through a Quality 80s Action Movie
This is the game Syphon Filter wanted to be, Turning Point wanted to be, and The Saboteur almost was. I've never had gun battles quite this satisfying, such as firing as fast as you can pull the trigger with a shotgun and spray-and-pray scatter on guns making fights feel semi-realistic but with a Hollywood sheen. Voice acting is fine and the music is Jesper Kyd so it is moody, exciting, and very creative. Mission briefing is straight forward but you fight at your own pace, traveling through manholes between locations whenever you want to and you can return to your underground base at any time. The game doesn't penalize you for sounding alarms, you can just get overwhelmed and run out of resources if you're too careless, so you can have fun firefights without getting slapped on the wrist. Basically the point here is gathering weapons, completing tasks, blasting soldiers and doing it all however you'd like in pretty large open areas. It really does feel like a classic 80s action film with flying bullets, explosions, tough talk and no ambiguity. Rescue the hostages, fight the bad guys, save the city!
