While it is playable, and actually pretty fun a lot of the time, it has some serious, nearly game ruining flaws that, for me, made it a complete disappointment.70Adrenaline Vault
You know, I expected a game with the word “Metal” in the title to have some metal music but I was sadly disappointed. But the game is still fantastic so I’m willing to let it somewhat of the hook.50bellmo15
