I am a fan of all the movies but not so much as to be biased for the game. I am very surprised that it is not more well known by now how great this game is. It covers alot of areas as far as gameplay goes. It has a fun ground combat style with a cool upgrade system. Also featured is a competitive racing experience to upgrade your ride. The map is enormous and sparcely populated for realism. I found everything to be imersive and rewarding. Max travels to different areas under enemy control to you guessed it, take them over. Once you do your allies make a home there. There are many places like these in the game and some can be challenging enough to keep you going. The story and franchise tie ins are very detailed and entertaining. Max even talks alot more often. The voice acting is top notch and the cut scene and gameplay graphics are also. I knew about it and played it briefly before, but didn't play through until recently. It is the most fun I have had playing in a long time. So what are you waiting for people, if you haven't yet then go get it and see for yourself. The underrated mastery of this game can't be overstated. I promise you won't be disappointed.
