👍 Strengths

166 reviews find it fun, the most upvoted praising its gameplay, music, controls and level design. 66 call the gunplay satisfying, with exploding terrain and shattering glass that feel great. 44 enjoy split screen matches with friends, and Multiplayer ranks 127th of 642. Some add that co-op, deathmatch and campaign challenges give it extra life. Tech & Support ranks 175th of 1399.

👎 Where it falls short

30 reviews find the difficulty uneven, with sharp spikes between settings, a punishing one life rule, and enemies that become easy once their patterns are learned. 29 say the campaign is short and can be finished in a few hours, with the rest spent unlocking extras. 29 find the levels repetitive and sparse, lacking variety in enemies and weapons. Some also dislike the cipher system that gates parts of the story. Content Volume ranks 680th of 1351, Story & World ranks 890th of 1096, and Pricing & Fairness ranks 813th of 1399.
