    It's like a less fun Crackdown. I'd have rather had the ability to customize my avatar than the set characters with very limited abilities. Not having a squad mechanic instead of switching between characters (with limited abilities) was a huge missed opportunity, which could have set the game apart from other similar games.

Compared to other similar games (Assassins Creed, Sunset Overdrive, ect...) this game was less interesting. I fail to see what so special about it that other reviewers felt it deserved an 8 or a 9, with one reviewer copy and pasting his great review under PC and Playstation as well. The game wasn't terrible or even bad, just okay. You'll have fun playing it but maybe wait for it to go on sale.… Expand

    It's like Crackdown had a baby with Saint's Row. There is fun to be had here for sure, but it's repetitious action drags down the experience.

    On day one I was loving this game but it gets old pretty quick. I love the Saints Row games but this game is more like Sunset Overdrive which I hated. The characters and stories are fun but the endless battles with bullet sponge enemies and the repetition removes most but not all of the charm. I still had fun sometimes in this game but nothing like the endless fun in Saints Row. I hadOn day one I was loving this game but it gets old pretty quick.

I still had fun sometimes in this game but nothing like the endless fun in Saints Row. I had a hard time finishing this game as the chaotic style and the harsh colours gave me a headache at times. I found some of the levels that required the use of the scan very annoying as the same button that does the scan also is the action button and it also leads you to your vehicle instead of the objective. I managed to finish the game but doubt I wil do much else in it whereas the Saints Row games continue to be fun after you finish the main story. So sad that the game this could have been wasn't delivered. I don't hate it but I sure don't love it.… Expand

    I only played the game for about 1 hour but that was enough for me.

    Graphics are fun and smooth. The open world aspect seems to work well although the action seems overly simplistic.

    Nevertheless still a competent open world action third person shooter.    … Expand

    This game is like the saints row game but without its flavour. The game is in the beginning pretty boring and even has a snap aim system which I recommend to turn of and adjust the aim-assist to have the most fun. Also the combat is not that exiting while it has a lot of potention. the enemies are always the same and they are never used in a challenging way so its just point and shootThis game is like the saints row game but without its flavour.

    For the story I would not recommend this game as it has almost no story and it is a **** of stories combined in a wrong way. The vilains also are really boring and not interesting at all.

    But I have to say when I came to the ending of the game this game blew my mind and it showed me it could have been pretty good. The villains in the end also are a lot more interesting but this only lasts for the last hour and a half.

    So I give this game a 6 out of 10 and wouldnt really recommend it unless you have time to kill and get this game for cheap. There is some fun in the game to be found but it can also feel like a chores list you have to complete like every ubisoft game nowadays.    … Expand

    A spin-off that unfortunately fails to scratch that irritating Saints Row itch. [Nov 2017, p.85]

    An entertaining game, with a great set of characters and lots of contents. What it lacks, though, is in variety, with an excessive repetitiveness due to too few locations and enemy types.

    There's so much to like if you're a fan of action cartoons but Agents of Mayhem is let down by repeated use of locations and annoying bugs.
