Giants

Gameplay - Dead on! Not only does this game have great action, but the in-engine cut scenes are friggin' hilarious! I guarantee you that you will laugh out-loud at just about every cut scene in the game, from wrinkly balls, to swearing robots, its got everything! Some of the humor has a more adult nature, which I find refreshing, but you may want to watch the kids on this one. Each character has such a definite and well written personality, you will swear you've known them for years. Put that together with some of the best voice acting and accents I've ever heard, and you've got a winning combination.

The actual playing in the game can be played in either 1st or 3rd person. This option is actually quite handy, since jet-packing in the meccs is easier in 3rd, and shooting in 1st. There are plenty of enemies, and they behave pretty realistically. They will travel in groups when searching, then scatter for cover when they find you. They will try to hide behind giant mushrooms, snipe, and even run when their health is low. You are also allowed to take over a couple of vehicles. The meccs have a mini-copter loaded with bombs and a machine gun, and the sea reaper uses a jet-ski equipped with missiles and a nitro. All this adds up to a great gaming experience.
