I went in expecting Ivan to be Krazy but instead it was the gameplay itself. Navigating a cool mech has never felt so flaccid there is zero weight to movement and gunfire. Instead of logically having simple strafing, you tap either L1 or R1 to perform a small sideway boost, if you want to circle around an enemy get ready to mash the L1/R1 repeatedly. That alone is difficult enough but in order to shoot you have to hold X while also feathering R2/L2 to control your vertical aiming—it's a fucking nightmare. Controls aside, there isn't anything here gameplay wise that will keep you hooked, you drop into one of five levels and are given a handful of targets to find and kill, every level follows the same format. The only saving grace is the live action FMV sections which have kino b-tier acting. You're better off just searching for the FMVs on Youtube and skipping the rest.

The best russian joke of 2018:
Иван: "Вы слышали об Иване, который сбежал от пришельцев?"
Чужой: "Нет, я не слышал"
Иван: "Это потому что я тихий Иван"
