Giantbomb GiantBomb External 6.0            

Pandemic brings some pulpy flavor to this open-world WWII game, but its stylish charm doesn't quite overcome the rough edges or the sense that its best tricks are borrowed from other, better games.

 

Ign IGN External 7.5            

Experience cheap thrills and hot nights in war-torn Paris.

Gamespot GameSpot External 7.5            

It's a lot of fun to paint the town red in this black and white open-world game, but the weak stealth elements limit your options.

Gamespy GameSpy External 6.0            

The Saboteur has some great ideas but they aren't developed enough.

 

Oneup 1UP External 6.2            

EA's latest turns WWII Paris into a sandbox world of strippers and destruction.
