What players say
Short, stupid fun worth every damn penny. If you like Doom, "train" levels in FPS games, and the concept of the movie Crank, you'll have a good time with this piece of absolute nonsense trash. Pay full price for this one if you want an evening of adrenaline with very little brain activity.
