Well, I can see Yahtzee enjoyed Hardline more than most other modern First Person Shooters (which isn't saying that much), but one thing that he didn't point out was the PRICE of the thing, and how little content was available for that price. Even though the content was practically a "Cops & Robbers DLC" for Battlefield 4, they had the gall to make this a separate game for the FULL price of Battlefield 4. In other words, that'd be $60 for the STANDARD edition of Hardline (which, again, only has about HALF of Battlefield 4's total content, for Battlefield 4's FULL opening price), $120 for the Premium Edition, and god alone knows how much more for DLC purchases after that.
Personally, I'm more with Angry Joe in that Hardline should've gone in one of two directions - either pare down the price of Hardline from $60 to about $15-$30, and release it as Battlefield 4 DLC (like how Far Cry: Blood Dragon was DLC for Far Cry 3), or develop Hardline as its own IP, separate from the Battlefield licence, and from the mechanics of Battlefield that clashed with the "Cops & Robbers" theme of the game.
