I've watched a few levels. It's basically a hack and slash platformer. Heavy on the eyecandy but play looks a bit weak.

The first minute of the Saboteur starts with boobies. And you can go back to see boobies at any given time. You can have Burlesque dancers dance for you.

In response to the last panel, theology is situated on pretty shaky theological ground. I heard that the first level contains aborted babies with razor blades for arms as enemies and that isn't even close to the most outlandish thing in the game. I'm already sold.

I wrote a review of the game here in the forum, I loved it even with it's little bugs. I am playing it for the second time now on a bit harder level.

the only thing I didn't like about it was the varying quality of the accents. I speak german and most actual germans compliment me on my natural accent and so to hear some of the really dodgy german accents throughout the game was really annoying in places, plus sometimes Seans accent wasn't quite what you'd expect from a guy from belfast, but all in all it was an awesome game! :drool:

Same here. I go to Germany once a month and speak and read German reasonably well , but I have a terrible accent. But even my accent was better then some of the voice actors. What I did find awesome was that sometimes Sean's reaction matches mine exactly. Like when a lady was standing in fron of my car again and I honk the horn the "get out of the way Grandma" was exactly what I was thinking at the time. And the "That went fucking well" :D
