Fun, but promises more than it delivers
In Armed and Dangerous, you play as a freedom fighter trying to put an end to the tyranny of the king: the story is told through cutscenes, all of which are full of humor and improbable characters that give AaD a unique and wacky tone. Each level consists in a wide open space in which you have to complete one or several objectives with the help of your two teammates. And for the most part, it's a lot of fun! The environments are huge, the buildings are destructible, the movements are fast, the weapons powerful and crazy (even though the restrictions on ammo usually force you to stick to your SMG), and there's usually a lot of action happening on screen, as you try to avoid shots and explosions coming from all directions! And yet, while this game does not lack soul, it really feels like something holds it back from being great: there seems to be an accumulation of small issues and a global lack of things on offer that makes AaD feel kind of subpar and repetitive. For instance: the pre-rendered cutscenes look somehow uglier than the rest, there are only 3 or 4 types of objectives that are recycled throughout the campaign (blow something up, rescue hostages, take control of a gun turret...), your companions are mostly useless, and no new enemies or guns are to be seen in the second half of the game, making for somewhat tiresome gunplay. You're also likely to give up on the game on the stupidly hard 18th mission. As a lot of people have said, this game is very much a spiritual sequel to the developer's previous romp, Giants: Citizen Kabuto, which shares its graphic engine, huge levels, improbable weaponry and sense of humor, but overall has better and more varied gameplay. I would thus recommend checking out Giants first, and then buying Armed and Dangerous if you want more of the same and can handle a drop in quality. Otherwise, this is a decent and well-priced shooter, but not exactly a must-buy if you're not into weird late '90s / early 2000's third-person action.
