Get the community patch and play an awesome game!

It's one of very few FPS games that followed in Deus Ex's footsteps...offering freedom to approach situations with different tactics, dialogue as an alternative to combat, and branching story paths. It's pretty cool, and unlike most every other game. It could have used some more technical polish at launch, but I think the community patches have got it in pretty good shape now.

The game feels totally noire throughout. Just a ridiculously atmospheric, seedy underground game, with amazing voice acting and great writing. The story jumps in interesting ways and you never think to yourself, "why am I here, or I would have done this level sequence differently if I were to design it".
It flows really well. The gameplay is fine, with some interesting branches, but like most RPGs become a slaughterfest later on.

As others have explained, it's lovely and Deus Ex-y. A fine setting, some horrible monsters, a story which bounces along merrily, great memorable moments, and general pleasantness.

I'm gonna give it a try. Just hoping it isn't locked to a horrible fps like some older console ports.

I figured for $4, why not. Dead Island is definitely worth the $15, though. I downloaded the director's cut mod, amputator tots mod, decapitator tots mod, and some texture enhancements. I'm having a blast with it! Dropping zombies with 1 well placed swing or bullet to the head never gets old. :-D
LOL AgentPothead! Nice vid... -
I realise it's almost universally reviled, but I didn't have any problems with Saints Row 2 on PC. Aside from brief and minor pauses when crossing over into a new block of the world at high speeds, it was all pretty much hunky-dory. Yes, interface issues and all that jazz, but nowhere near bad enough to spoil it for me.
If it does run fine for you, it's fun video games. If not... you'll join the many people who loathe it.
With a modern PC, though, your odds are probably all right.

I'm still waiting for an Anno 2070 sale. :(
