Would you recommend buying it? Why?

Shorts and the gags get old really quick.

Elite Force II is longer but to easy and loads of starfleet PC bull...

Best FPS right now is IGI2 :D

I've heard it's really fun, but haven't played it myself, so can't recommend either way.

I am intrigued about the whole "kill everyone" thing I can do... :twisted: I also hear you can ride the elephants by standing on their head and moving around to direct them.

(not directed at anyone in particular) What do you mean by "short gameplay?"

The actual missions, or "errands", aren't too numerous. Some are pretty shor too, but honestly, do you buy a game like this for mission objective gameplay? Fuck no! You buy this game so you can beat the shit out of people when you fell pissed at the world, but don't wan't to do anything that could have...."legal" consequences. :twisted:
