    This game could have been great. The atmosphere, the music, generally in terms of audio-visual aspects it's a piece of art in my opinion. Unfortunately, it misses some core elements of gameplay for a detective-type of game. Firstly, it doesn't matter what dialogue options you choose, because you can always restart the conversation, without any consequences. Writing is pretty bad. CarsThis game could have been great.

Firstly, it doesn't matter what dialogue options you choose, because you can always restart the conversation, without any consequences. Writing is pretty bad. Cars don't follow any traffic rules, it's hard not to crash all the time. You can shoot at people and even policemen and they do nothing, just run around. A real shame, with some tweaks this could have been a futuristic version of LA Noir, but as such it's just a very mediocre game at best.… Expand

    Was this game made by a little kid? If so then it is fantastic. Otherwise no. Download the free demo if you want to see the worst game I have ever played. I am keeping it just so I can trick people into playing it. This game can feast upon my ripe and fattened but

    A very boring game. The graphics are probably the only decent part of this game. The controls are weird whether you are walking g or driving. The game just throws you in without telling you what to do or where to go. You can walk around the open world but there's nothing to encourage you to explore. The ai sucks. You can attack civilians and cops will come but then they just stand thereA very boring game. The graphics are probably the only decent part of this game.

Overall it just isn't a good game and a waste of time and space on your console… Expand

    Kind of dumb how people are writing reviews for this game while only playing the demo,but what can you do. I've already written my thoughts out for this game under the switch version, since that is where I played the most of it. Yes, while this game definitely needs a few patches to iron out some bugs, the game is nowhere near the "unplayable mess" others have described it as.

Yes, while this game definitely needs a few patches to iron out some bugs, the game is nowhere near the "unplayable mess" others have described it as. The game is quite enjoyable if you put more than ten minutes in it. If you want to see a more detailed review, I suggest going over to the page for the switch version and looking at my review there.… Expand
