Total Overdose Description

The year is 1989 and deep in the sweltering heat of the Mayan jungle, camouflaged among the Inca ruins, Ernesto Cruz catches his breath for a few moments and admires his handiwork, bodies strewn across the temple ruins, as he makes a last gasp effort to board a DEA plane to take him to safety. He never made it home, the tragic victim of an alleged 'OVERDOSE'. Two weeks ago Ernesto's son, Ramiro Cruz is hauled out of jail by the DEA to be told his twin brother, Tommy, works for them as an undercover agent and has some new information about their father's death. But, Tommy has had an accident with a hand grenade and now Ramiro must take his brother's place in an undercover operation closing in on the ruthless drug cartel overlord Papa Muerte. Through stylised Mexican neighbourhoods and jungle hide-outs to the swanky Californian coast; Total Overdose is an over-the-top, adrenalin-fuelled, free-style action, 3rd person cinematic adventure with a strong whiff of tequila. Crash cars, steal hats, shoot bad guys with style, jump bikes, fight in the street, meet girls, shoot more bad guys, find your fathers killer, hot-wire tractors, eat Burritos, catch planes, drink tequila; the Mexican heat can make people do the strangest things.

this game is alright ,its passable graphics are alright ,everything is alright but nothing stunning however this game is a fun game would be better if the levels won't so hard/it was more like GTA where u had a choice of a number of missions or even better like streets of LA where the story changes if you fail because this isn't a serious game and the diffculty shouldn't be that serious ,it starts off really easy but then gets too hard more an arcade gamne to have fun with....one to rent not sure if its one to buy thou esp without xbox live

Thought it was an awful game that had a difficult storyline with awful gameplay and a small city to run around. Only good thing i found about this game was the graphics
