This Game Worth The Purchase?

Im debating on weather I should pick this up?

It depends on what you're aiming for. If you're a completionist, the Online community is slowly dying and non FFA & TDM matches are harder to find by the week. They're also very long to get if you're boosting them completely.

Single Player wise, you won't regret the purchase as it's a roller coaster from beginning to end compared to most squad shooter campaigns. But if that's your only set, then purchasing it at this time isn't really worth it unless you don't have any other purchases in mind.

The single player campaign is great fun, fairly short and worth playing through more than once which you need to for the various achievements.

The multiplayer is a bit thin on the ground. It is also appears to be stacked in favour of people who have ranked up early.

That's not true. Like most MP games, people who are higher level are used to the system more than others, that's the only difference. The few times people edit their Nanomachines (If they even know how) aren't much of an advantage since those are mostly effective in INVASION.

MP is really fun if you look over the rough edges, just finished getting Level 50 today.

Felt like it to me.

The other problem with the multiplayer is that you seem to spawn in exactly the same place everytime meaning if one team get the advantage they an just sit there and spawn kill.

Having said th the game is certainly worth getting of the single player

i agree, the single player is great. great story, good voice acting, no glitches/bugs.

however i personally don't buy games unless my friends also buy them for us to play together. everyone else is on Mass Effect 3 right now & i had this on my GameFly list before ME3 & wound up getting this early.

definaley i love i is a grea game wih a fairy original plot got mine for £15 and i would say its one of the better games i have bought this year so far

If you like gears of war, you will LOVE this game, and i really like the way that you can get Trust from all of your teammates, and i think it is a really good storyline. It is honestly one of my favourite games of the year. The multiplayer is deserted though. I searched 2 hours for a game and i could only get 1 other person.

in short...yes...I picked this game up recently for under £12 (UK) and I think it's a great little game (it's now available for under £10 from zavvi if you're in the uk).
it's admittedly a little rough around the edges, but it has a great story and is great fun to play in single player (Invasion mode is terrible)...buy it

I definitiely recommend this game, mainly due to the story. I wish it had been a bit longer, but I really liked the single player game experience. Good story and good game play. The multiplayer community is dead though, so getting some of the achievements is very unlikely.

I really enjoyed this game. I personally have issues finishing games. Always get side tracked or bored quick, which i am getting better with. This game i finished in a couple of sittings. Really fun game. Storyline is like a cross between Blade Runner and I Robot. I may be biased though as i seem to enjoy alot of Sega games.

Worth a rent at the least.
