The Good: Lots of area to take over, so plenty of gameplay. Story to go along with all the areas. Great tutorial system to learn how to play the game.
The Bad: The graphics were just not near what I was hoping for, and the controls are kind of hard to learn. Game play feels kind of slow.
So as always when I start a game I’ve never played I check out the Tutorials, the Introduction felt way to long and trying to base it on the story. Also after the introduction it does a good job of teaching you the game play and not trying to have a story along with it.
Graphics:
I am playing the game on my PS3 and I tried upscaling and even disabling the upscaling and compared to the screen shots I’ve seen I feel the games graphics could be a lot better. The camera is very easy to move around, although is a little to straight down look then it should be.
Controls:
As I said in the Bad I felt the controls were quite hard to learn, and really annoying to adjust to. I would much rather the left joystick be used more like a mouse and use x as left click.
Story:
I have not really had time to follow the story all the way through although from what I have seen they have done a great job connecting it to historical events.
Gameplay: 7.0
Graphics: 5.0
Controls: 6.0
Story: 9.0
Final Score: 6.7
