The campaign’s nothing short of astounding. A brilliant representation of the franchise for the modern era. The gameplay is equal party hardcore and totally ridiculous. I also was quite surprised how well told the story was. It walks a fine line between self aware stupidity and sharpened commentary on man’s hubris. The only thing that held this back for me, was the console controls on a gamepad the further I got in started becoming sort of maddening. This game is a ton of fun either way, but it really feels more at home on a mouse/keyboard. Which is something I don’t find myself saying hardly at all anymore. Controllers have come a long way. This game still demands that extra precision though. Either way, easily recommendable.
