This game looks absolutely incredible. The only way I can describe it is Sin City. But without the noir. So it's lighter (more white?), but equally stylized. Perhaps unsurprisingly, this makes it really hard for me to tell what's going on at times which might actually be a good thing.
I've still trying to figure out the meaning (for me) of the violence in the game. I can't say that I've really enjoyed playing it so far, but in terms of the representation I find that it's so over-the-top as to be almost comical. The problem is that it's ALMOST, which leaves me in a rather gray area which, as mentioned, I'm still trying to figure out. Does it glorify violence? How much of it is gratuitous? How do I think of it when compared to the also ultra-violent Manhunt? The experience of playing them is quite different...
