 G4 - Feature - 'Armed and Dangerous' (Xbox) Review
Humor aside, "Armed and Dangerous" is, at heart, a fast-paced third-person shooter, and on that level, it's pretty good.
As likeable as the good points of "Armed and Dangerous" are, and as fond of Planet Moon's style as we might be, the developer's second entry simply doesn't live up to its potential.

Armed & Dangerous is a third-person shooter in which the player takes command of a character called Roman, the leader of a rebel group known as The Lionhearts.
Roman is the only player directly controlled, but the rest of this unlikely band (including a talking mole, a robot who gains self awareness when he falls in love with tea, and a foul-smelling mystic) can be ordered around and chip in with valuable contributions to the cause.
Sound and graphics are both excellent, with Armed & Dangerous boasting that true rarity - good voice acting is couple with suitably mood-setting tunes to create a deep world, and the graphics run well on machines above recommended spec, even at high resolutions.
