“this game threw everything great about it's predesessor into the trash to become a terrible gears of war clone and kill the franchinse. loser game devs once again snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.”
“Honestly this game is awful. IT's as if the devs were told to make a red faction game but were not allowed to even know what red faction is. The engine the game uses handles the destruction really well but theres never anything to destroy…”
