2 days ago I have (more spontaneous way home on the way) The Bureau increased and it also installed directly. Since I bought the game in the store, I once watched here, what people say so and have been expecting in the first moment with a bad buy during installation.
Well, I would not say that it was the best purchase for a long time, yet the game is total grits.
As a die-hard fan XCOM one finds probably much more to complain about :)
The setting of The Bureau pleases me very well personally and find it for an alien story somehow quite fitting. The graphic style I find quite consistent and to also not at all that ugly. Sure, it may not with titles such as by far: keep up Far Cry 3 and as mentioned earlier all around is apparently formed from immovable alien matter, but somehow disturbs me here rather less.
The nice, but not overwhelming story succeeds like to shoot me through the area. Where we already talking about the core of the game would be: shoot.
It is a purebred shooter (learn skills and nested dialogs lead - ala Mass Effect, just not so deep) with very slight RPG elements. And so you move with two weapons at the ready, a few grenades and the happy coincidence that seemingly everywhere ammunition stashed in the US from shooting to shooting. Once there, you dive, behind the next best cover, can optionally select the NPC colleagues a target as the primary goal and then it'll go. In between times roll from cover to cover, because degree a grenade landed next to one and all until all Outsider lying dead on the ground.
Insane sounds monotonous and unexciting ... it is, but I feel pretty good time.
And to relax after a long day at work just to get away from it, but it is enough in any case, and this fact is me 4 * value :)
