the only two problems with this game would be that sometimes the graphics will give out and give you a bluish-type coloration to the road and it will fix itself almost immediately, nothing major.

there are plenty of plot twists to keep the game interesting if you've managed to avoid internet spoilers, but it barely balances out against how tedious the game is.
