Largely disappointing

The game starts out so fresh and boasts amazing graphics, but quickly sinks into a mashup of repetitive combat, driving, and "engineering". Also, the fact that it's a 3-disc game made me think it would have tons of shelf-life to offer...nope! Disc 3 is devoted entirely to multi-player, which if you're a Twisted Metal fan, have at it. Otherwise, it's pretty boring.
The entire game, with a majority of the quests and sub-quests being completed can be done in about 10-12 hours. It's like combining Borderlands with better graphics, with notes of Quake and Fallout beta testing.
Enemies take entirely too many bullets to kill, and the combat is not varied enough. Missions consist of "go here, get this, bring it back" or "drive here, shoot bandits, collect cash". For 6 years in development, I expected more. Meh.
