My two cents on this game mainly points at the adventure of this game, or lack-of. When it comes to combat, yeah the combat is good, fun, dashing around blowing up goons just like I did in Borderlands, traversing across a fairly large map in different vehicles has it's perks - even though a lot of the map you'll never go to because there's simply nothing there.. but anyway -

If you're looking for a similar experience to Skyrim or Fallout and even FarCry where you have a massive map to work with, many quests / missions/ jobs to do even after you finish the story, then look somewhere else. If you commit to the story of this game you'll have it done in about 12 hours, give or take depending on difficulty / commitment. After that you won't feel a commitment to this game, even when you drop as much money as you did (which is quite sad I think).

As for non-story jobs - you'll get excited for maybe an hour or two in the 'Finish all these challenges' mentality, but soon realise that it's extremely repetitive and and in the end, bloody tedious.

I might be more inclined not to give it a bad review if it was priced closer to £30. £20 would be a snatch. However I do feel like I was cheated given the price of this game and the experience I had. Definitely get it on sale if you're going to:
