Rented it yesterday at noon. Played from 4 PM to 8 or 9PM (with a dinner break and a few BBS posts). Only died 3 or 4 times. The humor is outrageous and the game is fun but very short. You should not be able to sit down in that limited amount of time and just wander through a game on default difficulty. Seems like there should have been more levels. Definately a renter not a buyer till the price drops significantly.
The Warriors on the other hand is brawler supreme. I've never played a brawler that's held my attention like this one. I guess it has to do with the superb story telling, varied missions (extortion, mugging, drug deals, outright combat, riots, etc...). While they all seem to have common elements they feel different enough in exectuion to keep the game play feeling varied. And the fighting engine is brilliant. You have many combos, rage moves, reversals, multiple opponents/allys, killing moves, tandem attacks, and throws some of which can be combined with the enviornment for even more effect. This is without a doubt the deepest brawler ever. And best of all the learning curve isn't steep at all though mastering the game takes practice.
