    Pros: + interesting story hook + running over enemies in a car is fun Cons: - repetetive gameplay - horrible camera work and enemies spawning behind you - repetetive gameplay - unlikeable characters - repetetive gameplay - predictable fights and no tention - repetetive gameplay - terrible pacing (especially chapters 3, 5 and 6 were a pain to go through) - did I miss something? Oh! Also repetetive gameplay
