a5c7b9f00b Wow! what a comedown from the first game..its now just a generic shoot-em-up derived from- and inferior to- so many others.<br/><br/>Gameplay is awkward. I found the driving levels incredibly irritating and cumbersome.<br/><br/>The story is clichéd, the characters are unlikable racial stereotypes and there are just too many cutscenes. Swearing doesn't bother me but if it offends you there is a lot of profanity here.<br/><br/>The modern setting adds nothing and merely removes call of juarez of its unique selling point and sense of identity.<br/><br/>I did consider buying this but thankfully I rented it first. I definitely won't be buying it. I'm a huge fan of shooter games (anything Rockstar, Stranglehold, Call of Duty 3, The Uncharted series, etc.) so I was excited when I heard positive things about its predecessor. I was absolutely disappointed the moment I pressed the start button.<br/><br/>The character development was non-existent, the plot was ridiculous, and the game-play was extremely annoying. There was a level where you have to move drugs from one car to another. You can't shoot anyone while holding items and every single flipping time I did this part, I ALWAYS ended up dying. I was stuck on this mission forever. When playing, in general, it felt as if I was a lab rat trapped in a universe that you can't even explore or get some fresh air. I don't have a problem with linear games but this was poorly executed.<br/><br/>Immediately after dying for 50th time in a row, I went to Gamestop sold it for store credit. Those $10 I paid for it were not worth it. Do yourself a favor and avoid this game!
