Urban Chaos: Riot Response

The Good
Well, for starters, I love nothing more than a good brutal smash-fest game, and the riot shield alone provided more than enough entertainment for me. This game has somewhat decent visuals for the Xbox, and storyline is a bit thin, but able to be followed. A neat perk about it is that depending on how good you do in a mission [# of head-shots, non-lethal captures, etc...] you get more medals. More medals mean new and better versions of your current arsenal. A good feature is the ability to go back and re-play missions you didn't do so well on to earn more medals, so replay value is pretty darn good. The sounds are excellent, especially during head-shots and skull shatters. Urban Chaos is a definite buy on my list.

The Bad
Only a few things got me a little irked. For starters, there's not much for personalization in the story line. It's one simple path you must follow or you cannot continue. I also wish that multiplayer would allow bots for a little skull-shattering fun. The last thing which is not that big of an issue, but it gets slightly annoying is that when you're in front of a mob of bad guys in masks, they use the same little catchphrases sometimes. "C'mon Mason, you a chicken?" that sort of thing. It rarely happened, but it kind of threw me off every now and then. Other than that, not too bad at all.

The Bottom Line
Urban Chaos is the fulfillment of dreams you never knew you had. I love to watch a couple of riot videos and "Cops" before playing just to get into the mood. Hahaha!
