Very impressed with it. Since I'm not familiar with the series, the plot twists kinda threw me- to be honest, I'm sick of how every TV show, Movie, and Video game has to have a plot twist every 5 minutes.

The controls kinda piss me off- I run up a building or jump on a fence half the time I don't want to. But that's my unfamiliarity with how it works

I like the treatment of the missions a lot. Good variety, especially when you start being involved in battles.

But the best part is the cities. Very atmospheric, and nothing seems spoon-fed. The bits of dialogue here and there add to it greatly. I rather like the game

The big negative- I guess this is true of console games now- is that the game box has no instructions for reference. You have to navigate the game menu to see the manual, which is greatly annoying to me. I don;t need 10 pages of backstory, but I do need a reference card for the controls that I can look at when playing
I agree with the instruction manual problem, big time! Especially since the controls change a bit from game to game in this series, I've had to click through the menus a few times to look up certain actions.
