$10 on steam. Maybe not anymore. Whatever. by Arbit 02/08/2010, 4:25pm PST
Things to do
- Cruise the savanna on a quad. Sounds gay, but is legitimately awesome.
- Set massive grass fires.
- Laugh at the "healing" animations. Poking your finger knuckle deep into a wound to push the bullet out the other side! Slap at your burning arm to stop burning. Use your Leatherman as a surgical tool.
- Throw a guy to the ground and plunge your machete into 'im in first person view.
- LOL at nuclear hand grenades. Not really nuclear, but capable of flinging a cargo truck 30 feet into the air. If you make a game with super powered grenades, plentiful vehicles, and well made ragdolls, you have my attention for at least 1 hour.
- LOL hysterically at vehicle encounters. Guys in shitty jeeps and Datsuns come tearing out of the underbrush, pull up right next to you, get out and try to shoot you. The abruptness, the ramrod straight sitting posture and horribly stiff animations for getting out of cars makes it all seem very Benny Hill-ish. Everything Benny Hill-ish should end quickly with a double-barreled shotgun.
- Get really bored of the side missions.
- Quit.

I give it 6 out of 5 Mirror's Edges, which is to say it's worth the experience for $10, but I would be raging if I paid $50 for this.
