Got a little bit of playtime in on this one last night. The intro was no doubt the strangest thing I've seen in a long time.
Gameplay is smooth and intuitive. Excellent use of the analog sticks. It's not too hard at the beginning, yet it's not too easy.
This is the kind of game that really shows how important gameplay is. I could care less about the story, etc. The gameplay is what counts and this game's got it.
Highly recommended.
