There's a lot of ideas here that definitely work on paper far better than they do in practice.

I had fun for portions of it but the gameplay really loses its luster by the midway point and from that point forward I was stuck doing repetitive missions with painfully basic gunplay.

Aside from the bits of the story that delved a bit further into Vincent and Lucrecia, the narrative here was dry, lifeless, and worst of all: boring. Found myself constantly checking out during the myriad of endless cutscenes, especially towards the back end of the game.

Now, I won't lie, the final chunk of the game was actually pretty kino.
