For starters, my girlfriend and I actually went out and bought an additional controller, because she was having so much fun playing this game that she wanted to try multiplayer. The graphics were actually pretty good for an Xbox title, and the soundtrack was perfect. I loved that they used actual songs to create the atmosphere. The other thing that really stood out, was the great sense of humor in this game, you have to play it to understand. The control worked very well, except there was really no camera AI, so you had to control the camera yourself via the right joystick the whole time, it really did not interfere much with the game though. There are a limited number of powers that Stubbs himself gets, but one of them, his hand possession, allows you to take control of other people and use their machine guns/rocket launchers/lasers/ray guns/etc... The major downside to this game was it's play time. We beat the game in a mere 5 hours or so, at one sitting. With such a great and fun game, it's too bad it didn't last longer. So overall, this game is incredibly fun to play, has a great soundtrack, good graphics, pretty good controls, and will provide much enjoyment for at least a few hours. I'd advise renting, not buying :)
