Does anyone play this game?

I got it today, and I installed it (15 gig...)

I must say its better than I expected. It's pretty much;
Max Payne - storyline/good voice actors + arcade

The graphics are nice, and they add to the immersion of the "movie feeling" they try to recreate. Pretty much everything in the level is breakable. Scenery, paintings, vases, walls, cars, any wooden object, boxes, barrels, ledges, etc.

Unfortunately you can only change the resolution and 2 settings ingame. So I don’t think this will run well on older hardware. It’s pretty clear this was made for a consoles because the menu settings and controls are terrible.

It does get boring very quickly. Once you are over the fact that it all looks amazing, it doesn’t have the depth Max Payne has for example. The voice actors are bad, even if it really is Chow Yun Fat’s real voice; it’s not a voice you want to hear to speak English in a game.

Anyone played it?
 
played it for about 2 hours, the novelty of jumping about disappeared, I uninstalled it.

It's a fun game for an hour or so, and then you realize that all the repetitive jumping is taking up half your raptor!

Did I mention the jumping around?
