I wasn't neccessarily a fan of this series. But once I decided to purchase this product i was happy with the time and outcome of the gameplay. great graphics, realistic feel, great driving and combat, great choice of missions weapons and cars. Another great addition to a great series. Can't wait for the sequel.
What's great about it: Gigantic world, easy controls basic learning curve.
What's not so great: Not enough ending possibilities.
