Has anyone played this yet and your thoughts if you have? Can't seem to find any reviews on Gamespot or IGN so far. I was planning to buy this but just a bit scared whether it'll have crappy controls for the PC version.
 
I've played the demo on PS3 and it sucked. Crazy unrealistic "battering ram juts" that turn your Pontiac G8 into an unstoppable tank, and these moving car hijack maneuvers where the guy flies literally 100's of feet through the air to land on top of a motorcycle.. I couldn't find a place that required any skill other than beating the clock on random occasions. It's a Failure to be sure, hope Vin Diesel got a big paycheck...

Thanks for the link! I read the review and saw the video review as well, seems like the reviewers main gripe was with the terrible on-foot controls, lack of jumping abilities and also a major flaw with no proper cover system being implemented. The game's a little over $40 in India so a good chance that I'll let it pass.
 
Tigons involvement will make it better than your average movie tie-in (ie. Riddick)... but it's probably not game of the year material , but should be entertaining for a few evenings.
