So very, very badly written.

I honestly can't tell you anything about the actual gameplay. It might be the best designed game ever, and it wouldn't matter. The story is so badly written, and takes so long at the beginning of the game, that I just gave up on it. With the incredibly long loading time when you start, I spent a half hour on it, and hadn't learned any of the mechanics but ducking behind cover. For a game where you can supposedly change gravity they spent an incredibly long time without introducing that mechanic. It's the only reason I rented this game, and I didn't even get to use it. I'll just console myself with the gripping story of how some random cop's daughter is lost. If you're going to spend this much time and effort making a game, please, please hire someone who knows how to write a story. Not all of us will like a game because of some new gameplay mechanic you figured out how to do. I almost spent the $15 to just buy this game straight up, now I'm glad I didn't. I wouldn't pay $5 for this game.
