Continue to Full Review   Overall   This game is a sub-par attempt at a very good cable television series. The Shield deserved a much better product when it comes to interactive entertainment. However, fans of the show might not find it too disheartening to give the game a spin, but I suggest renting rather than buying. So while I’m hard pressed to say skip-it, I’m equally motivated to say that this title at least deserves a look, but only from the die-hard fans of The Shield.   Sweet to the Core   Vic's face. There's a well modeled and textured Michael Chiklis   Smoking soundtrack. True to the show, the soundtrack rocks   Going Bad   Not enough gameplay. There needed to be more gameplay features   No multiplayer. In a world where 2 player matters, this game has none   No vehicles. Free-roaming in vehicles would have been nice   Rotten to the Core   Hugging. Wall hugging is a freaking menace   The Core Score Overall 7.0 Fun 7.4 Gameplay 6.7 Graphics 7.3 Audio 9 Replay 6.5     Kid Safe Score      2  Horrible    Language that would make a sailor blush, along with mature sexual themes makes this a bad pill for minors   How we score games
