I expected more from Capcom. This game had a very weird targeting system. Slow character movement was annoying. I didn't care for it at all. I played through the first level and sent it back.
Above average 3rd person shooter with pretty good mech battles as well. Cool grappling hook and the Bosses are pretty challenging, cheesy but entertaining cinematics. The game has a few shortcomings like frame rate chugging and slowdown at times, a second life bar(why?) and also initial HD install of 10 minutes. Online is surprisingly good, variable modes and level up system. Expect around a 10 hour single playthrough with harder difficulties and online skins unlocking after the game.
