Freedom Force Review

The Adrenaline Vault has posted a review of Freedom Force, giving Irrational Games’ superhero RPG an overall score of 4.5/5. Their overall thoughts to follow:

    Freedom Force is one of the most fun games I’ve had the pleasure of trying out in a long time. It’s all in the presentation: Everything about Freedom Force is set up to draw you into the campy, exciting world of Patriot City. Though the title is strictly linear, each level feels like a mini-world in itself. The more I played, the more attachment I felt to the city and its citizens and buildings. The people walking around, cars skidding to a stop as you leap in front of them, and screams of terror when the enemies show up all add to the feeling of really being a superhero saving an actual city from evildoers.

    Freedom Force oozes polish and personality from every pixel. Even if you’re not a comic book fan, you’ll find yourself enjoying the game immensely. It stays true to its roots, but it’s not ashamed at poking fun at itself either. The gameplay is highly accessible and a ton of fun. The myriad of possibilities for custom-designed heroes, fully destructible environments, and engaging storyline and characters all make for a release that stands out from the crowd. Problems in the areas of interface and artificial intelligence keep it from being an instant classic, but in spite of that, it is still one of the best games released this year. The title takes great pains in the area to provide an experience that doesn’t lose its luster a second or third time around. Even the most jaded gamers will find something to smile about in Freedom Force.
