Oh sure, there's lots of gratuitous manslaughter, cop-killing as certain as manifest destiny, plus an unremitting earful of apparently requisite foul-mouthed overindulgences, so let's get behind this game and protect our First Amendment Rights, right? Don't bother.
25-to-Life is bad in the original sense of the word: horrible. Looks like crap, plays like a stick in the mud and tells a "gangsta" story that makes no sense.
At its best, 25 to Life is shamelessly shallow schlock prostituting itself for some underserved attention with nothing to offer otherwise except maybe a blueprint on how not to make a videogame.
