Design
The game captures Seattle with beautiful life-like graphics.

Value
While it may feature a repetitive style of missions, this game is interesting because of its freedom for you to choose what decisions you want to go through in the game. This elevates the standard morality in video games that it is essential to be a good guy, and maybe sometimes playing the villain is more fun. Either way it can be a fun experiment to play both sides of the story to see what are the outcomes on each path.
