I had high hopes for this game when I heard about it. It looked like the closest thing we will see to a game based on The Transporter or Ronin. After playing the demo I wasn't reminded so much of those movies but more of another game, The Getaway series for the PS2. That is not a compliment. Driving doesn't feel right, shooting while driving feels worse. It's visually impressive but it's no Need For Speed: Most Wanted.

I agree, it has a couple of good moments but other than that it's a mess.

I did have my eye on this one. after watching the previews, i'm going to pass on this. here to hoping Dark Athena is better.

You are correct- the graphics are very impressive but even before I read what you wrote about Getaway I got the same impression. \r \r I can't tell but it looks like a Honda Accord or some type of Pontiac-- are they using real licensed cars?
