Cons
Con Poor non-shooting sections of the game
At certain points of play there will be sections where the player needs to platform or control their character in a zero gravity situation. These are deviations from the shooter gameplay and often feel forced as well as control poorly. While it is nice to see the gameplay broken up a bit so you are not always doing the same thing over and over again, the non gun gameplay just does not feel intuitive, it does not work well with the flow of the game, which basically breaks the players immersion.
Con Minor graphical issues
You'll occasionally notice texture pop-ins and characters briefly disappearing. It's not really game-breaking, but could potentially ruin your immersion.
