Replayability/Mechanics: 4/5 – Mechanics are perfect, entertaining and diverse, you can also replay the game on harder difficulty or to collect some weapons, but I wouldnt replay this anytime soon.

Upgrading your weapons, finding them around the map, upgrading your suit are more or less the same which i really like.

64 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
