GTA..It is Not

Ok this game had a neat concept when i was browsing the shelves at my college rental store for games to pick up. I get home and pop it in and it's the worse GTA wannabe game I've ever played and I've played a lot. The idea of having to kill cops is..whatever. The game itself has terrible control and graphics are very choppy

The A.I. seems to have a brain when it wants to but things are definitely out of wack with this game. In the very beginning of playing I got shot in the foot and my character died.

Fun But, Still Just A Game 4 Adults!!!!

I'm not sure why people are Freaking out over this title (Trying to Boycott it) The bottom line it's not a Kids game it has a Mature Ratting on it for a reason
If anything with all the Media attetion it's gained it will move more units for Eiods
When you get down to it the game is a great idea that gets lost in the translation
It has a number of prob. (Eiods should have waited for the next Gen Console's to relase this on But, They didn't?
It is fun has some cool moments But, like other Review's have said it's too short
The sound track is Great one of the best Game sound tracks I've heard in a while.
When i was finished playing the game I did Not have any type of Violent ideas But, then again I'm 26
This game is Not for children read the Rating on these games
Everyone wants 2 attact Eidos and the gaming Industry for Adult Video Games But, here's the thing not ALL video games are for kids....... Question the Parents they should be aware of the content there kids are watching,reading, and listening to!
Or maybe we should just CENSORE Everything for the kids from Mature Video Games,Howard Stern,Rated R Films,Magazines,Books
or Maybe just the Local News?!?
I'd give the title and the content in it a 7/10
Does it have reply value -yes and no-

Fun but way too short

This is a fun shooting game. It's one of may attempts to cash in on the popularity of the GTA games. It's not on the level of GTA, but it is a lot of fun and has a great music soundtrack. Unfortunitely the lenghth is what hurts the game. It's probably under 5 hours and you could probably finish it a couple days after renting it. Oh another thing, this is not a "cop killing game". You play as both cops and gangsters and some of the cops are as bad as the gangsters. This game does not in anyway glorify gang life. If you watch the ending of it, you'll get what I mean. Anyways it has an M-rating on it, which should be a good enough warning to parents.

Goes TOOOO FAR!

The gameplay is rubbish aswell but thats not the reason i`m here.
The game is more of a "Cop Killing" simualotor,which is un-necessory.
GTA maybe controversial but atleast you`re not MADE to kill cops,also those cop chases in Driver were actually fun and not disturbing-but this 25 to Life just takes the bar to far!
people forget that cops are actually normal people under that uniform,they may have famillies and are just paying for their bills and buying food for the family or something.
I do generally like EIDOS games but i think all copies of 25TL should be scrapped-the game is sloppy,controvesial.

overall i rate this game 1.3/10

Fun, but lots of problems

First off, I heard this game is being taken off shelves in some stores due to it's content. Well, I guess a game about criminals vs. law enforcement (COPS AND ROBBERS people) is so horrible that it should be taken off shelves while games like GTA remain where you can randomly walk anywhere, carjack anyone, kill anyone, and destroy anything....yeah that's much better for our youth. Now the TRUE problems with the game; the single player game is pretty lame. On Xbox Live it's about as fun as games get, but the problem is about 50% of the time people find a way to cheat and walk through walls and stupid stuff like that and it causes the game to crash (hence the 2 star overall). Way too many glitches.
