Product Description: The Shield is a 3rd person action video game capturing the look, feel and authenticity of one of the most talked about programs on television. Detective Vic Mackey and the Strike Team define a new form of policing -- including intimidating suspects, employing brute force, accepting and offering bribes and planting evidence. The game will also let players choose between the right and wrong side of the law, with Vic walking a thin line while trying to accomplish missions, maintain the respect of his men, keep his politically ambitious police captain happy, pad his retirement fund and, above all, avoid Internal Affairs. Unique new Intimidation and Adrenaline gauges

This game is alright, but I would love to be able to just travel the streets of Farminton. However, it is a good game to add to your Shield collection.
Rating: - The Thin Blue Line !
This is a pretty good game. It follows all your favorite people and along the same time line as the series. It offers good action such as shoot outs with bad guys and three different weapons you pick up along the way. You get bust guys and search them for guns and drugs and eithier keep them for retirement or turn them in as a good cop if you feel like it or need to take the heat off you in the game. It not the most over the top game there is but it should offer any player a pretty good challenge. For what it is I was surprised.This game is a least worth checking out plus the price is right I say go for it.
Rating: - Really disappointing
There should have been a lot more to this game. There is no free roaming capability. You do not drive a car once in the whole game. It simply goes from one mission to the next, where you beat or shoot a bunch of dudes, sneak past a couple dudes and then slap answers out of a main dude. With games like True Crime: New York and even The Getaway as a guide this game could have been really good. As it is if you are a huge The Shield fan it is slightly entertaining but on its merit as a video game it is horrible and a ripoff for anyone who purchases it.

I am a huge fan of the TV show and absolutely needed to have this game. I read some reviews that stated that this game may be too easy, but I do not find that to be true for me. I do not play my Playstation very often and consider myself a novice. My playstation may sit for months at a time before I blow the dust off of it and play some games. When I got the Shield I did just that. I've been having great fun with it. The graphics are good, the action is exciting, and the R-rated soundtrack is amusing. Good times will be had by any Shield fan who plays this game!

I bought this game as a gift and the person that I bought it for LOVES it! He says that it is a lot of fun and that the overall game is great! Of course he wanted it because he is a "The Shield" series fan.
