Guardians of the Galaxy makes up for all of it's jank, lack of polish, and the wet fart that is combat in the early hours of the game by being really, really, really damn endearing. Did I audibly sigh the 20th time Gomorrah said: "Having fun "praaaying" on the weak?" when referencing the gang of religious cultists you're fighting in battle? Absolutely. But then the awesome soundtrack kicks in or the likeable characters start bantering back and forth in a cutscene and you forget all of the minor annoyances the game comes with. Not to mention this game is totally unafraid to be weird as hell in it's environments, writing, and character designs and I can definitely respect that! It balances out to be a unique, fun experience with likeable characters, an engrossing story, and a terrific soundtrack despite how groan-inducing and janky it can be at times.
