Short version: Play it, it's really fun, you'll have to tweak around to get it running properly, but after that it works fine.
The good:
- Lots of humor of the british kind, with some jokes that would probably offend some people in the age of SJWs, but hey, if you are not up for it you can always grab a mirror and laugh at your dead soul
- Nice variety of locations.
- A reasonable amount of collectables that enable cheats and other extra functions.
- it's an spectacle shooter, you can blow up a lot of things.
- Some crazy weapons, no other game gives you a shark launcher.
- you can attach mines to the enemies, sending them into a panic.
The bad:
- The physics are locked to the framerate, so you need to use vertical sync at no more than 60Hz or you'll end up running like Speedy Gonzales, unable to do anything. The game doesn't have a vsync option and the configuration files cannot be opened with your standard text editor. fortunately graphic cards have options to force vsync nowadays.
The ugly:
- Mouse aiming is too sensitive, even at minimun settings the mouse goes wild, if you have a gaming mouse you can lower the DPI to fix this issue, otherwise, I hope you can handle it.
- mission 18 (defend lily's home) is hard, really hard , after 1 hour of retries I had to consult a walkthrough and apparently you can lower the amount of zeppelin spawns if you destroy the first zeps in certain order, I'm not sure if that is a glitch or not, but it saved my ass, I was ready to throw the towel.
- The graphics are dated, and the facial animation could probably give nightmares to some, but that's a given in a game as old as this one.
-The story is serviceable, but works more like an accesory to the humor and gameplay
-The music is also kind of forgettable
At the end I do recommend this game, so get going and bring "death to the salad eaters!"
