I heard this game had decent fist fights and bad gunplay. The visuals and sound are great and the controls are good. When in a fist fight with a regular joe, it's pretty much a game of hitting X or Y and doing a block here and there. The take downs are nice but I wish you could control what you do during them. For example, your next to a wall, a barrel, and a crate. I wish it would bring up a menu and you would press the button that overlays the thing. Sometimes I would be right next to the wall and the take down would be the plain version of me just knocking him off his feet. Use the wall moron! I had no problems with using guns or cover. I was able to line up shots quickly and move while in cover. The boss fights are simply a chore. At normal difficulty, the bosses do way too much damage and barely receive any. It becomes a simple block and attack until you land enough punches to do a take down. You then rinse and repeat until the boss is dead. The only exciting boss fight is the one near the end with the timer in the burning barn. A rental at best.
