This game is a fun shooter, but it does have a few things that sometimes make it just plaint frustrating.
First of all, you get special enhancements, like exploding bullets, adrenaline boost, etc, but then those abilities get disabled on missions where you need them the most. If you are going to give a player tools, then let them use the tools to their advantage, whenever they choose. Some of the levels are just plain hard, even on the easy setting because you are overwhelmed with enemies that have superior firepower and you cant use your special tools. I finally just gave up at one point, after trying to get through a specific area for several hours, and sent the game back. That's when a game no longer is fun, and turns to being just frustrating. The graphics are more suited to a PS2, not a PS3, and the auto aim feature does not always work very well, especially on moving targets. None of the weapons have scopes, so you are constantly trying to kill targets that are sometimes too small to even see, and some of the weapons are so slow to reload that they are effectively useless in a firefight. Oh, another thing about weapons, you have a selection to choose from, but you can only carry two, and you cant pick up weapons in the field, so if you choose weapons that may not be suited for that particular mission (which you dont know what you will encounter), your goose is pretty much cooked. It was fun at first, but quickly just became a lesson in futility. Too bad, because it could have been much better.
