Pros: Fun combat, diverse array of weapons and armor. Wide open world for exploration. Cons: Lackluster story. Sub-par character development and interactions. Becomes monotonous and repetitive as the game goes on. Latest patch still does not resolve some bugs. Verdict: I do not recommend this game. It was a good thing I bought this copy I have from the used section at a discount as this is NOT worth the full price at launch. Greatly disappointed as it did not come close to the previous titles in the franchise. Only die-hard fans who do not mind the bad story/narrative and character interactions will have an OK time with this. I didn't even finish it, as it never really caught on to me as fun and engaging. Will sell the copy I have soon (if anyone will buy it).

Don't mind the critics, the source material is where most concepts in modern/recent movies and stories that are set in a dystopian future are derived from. The manga (graphic novel) just didn't go as noticed as some of it's contemporaries of it's time, such as Akira, Ghost in the Shell etc. and the movie just took a while to create, due to the IP owner (James Cameron) putting it off until the technology was available to bring his vision to life. Loved this movie. I went in the movie house feeling cautiously optimistic and went out being a fan. Action/Visuals: 10/10, Music: 9/10 Story: 7/10. Overall 9/10. A must see, especially in 3D Imax to really see the movie as it was intended by the director and producer. Go see it!
