Rating: - A good rental at best!!!
Overall this game is pretty good and worth a rental. You should be able to beat the whole game twice in the time you rent it! The gameplay is good, but is flawed in many missions by having to run around and complete stupid objectives like weight lifting and punching a boxing bag to collect cigarettes from prison mates (seriously). The extra features like hand to hand combat is cool, and the disarming/takedown feature is even better, and I expect many future games to copy this feature and imrpove it. Being able to use and attack dog is a definite plus to the game, and I thought it was very original.....but I still would not buy the game unless it reaches greatest hits price($19.99), because theres not enough replay value to keep it alive for more than 2 trips through the game. In my opinion this game is better the 007: nightfire, which is another game I rented recently too!
Rating:  - a great rental,but not one to buy
I had alot of fun when I rented this game,however I just can't see why anyone would want to throw down $50 and buy it. Although sicking your gaurd dog on bad guys was fun,I was annoyed at how few times you could use it in a level.This also adds to the point of getting extremely tired of being shot at with uzis and automatic rifles from 6 to 8 people!(The graveyard level with the clowns!!!!) As for the mini games you unlock as you progress through the game,well they aren't really games so much.You just end up playing the exact same part that you did in a certain area of the game,and then that's it...all done!No harder levels are added to the mini games,no high scores to beat,and more importantly nothing rewarded for beating the mini-game.The lockpick game for instance lasts under a minute if you complete it correctly!
The only mini-game that I'd imagine anyone would replay is the heidi dances game(a stripper dancing to which you must push the correct buttons to create her moves)Actualy,I REALLY like that mini-game...but why not add more to it,say more moves,faster pace and even a bonus "cinema" for completing it. Again,I had ALOT of fun with this game;but after about five or six days it just gets old...
Rating:  - Dead to Rights by Namco
this is the greatest game ever. Namco really came through with this game. With your dog and disarming the enemy it is the best;better than max payne easily. All the enemys and weapons makes it fun and challenging. Mini games and hand to hand combat intensifies almost all fighting areas. Superb graphics and animations sequences are one of the many good parts.
