This took me sometime to beat. I started playing it in December, went on hiatus because of school, then came back to it sometime in April. I think it's pretty good, but I do have some mixed feelings about it. I really like the writing and voice acting. Satire is always inviting in video games. The settings are nice and I like the shooting and platforming mechanics. Some weapons get useless towards the end of the game, unless you run out of ammo then you use every you have. I really like taking control of the other robots. Towards the later half, when you get this ability, it kind of becomes a stealth game. The best looking stage is easily Morbot City. However, the driving stages are horrible and the levels can get monotonous. Even if it's not a driving stage, anytime a tank is use it's difficult to control. There's a "sameness" to some of the level designs that makes it easy to get lost. The difficulty level is inconsistent. In general, this is a hard game without even selecting some of the game's advanced difficulty modes, including nuts of steel. Some parts feel like a complete Battle Royale. The reviving aliens are whack and those flying assholes that fire green beams can go screw themselves. There's a mission that involves pretending to be an ally (I think) that's the most unique of all them. It's got a "last-man-standing" shooting part, a Simon Say's knockoff, and some great puzzle solving. It almost felt like a different team made that section of the game. It's worth playing, but prepared to get a bit frustrated.

Best Parts:
• Mission: Unhandled Exception
• Morbot City
• Watchtower shooting stages that are like Missile Command

Replay It? - Not sure
