You know what, this was pretty damn good. Really well written, with fun, fluid and complex combat that shakes things up with perfect pace. The art design is astronomically good, and the sheer ammount of dialogue recorded for this game deserves shouting-out too.
A solid 50% of the decisions do feel a bit hollow, but it's made up for with some really meaningful choices, there are times where the story lags and I can't tell you anything in the gameplay that's wholly 'original', but it's an interesting combination of things that definitely makes one of the best titles I've played this year.
It does suffer from the issue of the player needing to already know a decent ammount about the guardians of the galaxy, but if you have a passing knowledge of the comics, or have seen the movie, you'll be fine.
