In Destroy All Humans! Path of the Furon, players pick up where prequel "Destroy All Humans! Big Willy Unleashed" leaves off, controlling Crypto in the Funked out 1970's when mysterious new enemy attacks Earth, sweeping Crypto up in a conspiracy that unravels his groovy new way of life and threatens the very survival of the Furon race. Players take Crypto on a journey of Enlightenment and Destruction as he gains new powers from an alien Kung Fu Master in order to take on his most difficult enemy yet—his own kind. Path of the Furon redefines the series for next-gen—increasing the size, scale and scope of Crypto's arsenal of alien weaponry, mental abilities and destruction. Manipulate or destroy anything in the world, creating disaster movie inspired level of destruction and mayhem. Go anywhere at anytime via an open world mission structure—Explore 5 open world environments without ever leaving the game world, or take on a variety of side missions and mini-games. Next-gen graphics, detailed destruction, new weapons, new mental abilities, expanded UFO capabilities, customized upgrades and co-op and competitive multiplayer gameplay. [THQ]

GameZone
The game feels like it exhausted all its ideas and is recycling the weakest missions from past games. In other words, Path of the Furon is a lackluster game with not much to offer those who enjoyed Crypto’s earlier adventures.

Here, you’ll find little beyond groaners, pedestrian prattle, and underdeveloped monotony. Find another path to walk.

Cheat Code Central
Repetitive and uninspired missions abound as do glitches that can make completing missions more difficult or even impossible without reloading. The lack of a co-op mode for the campaign is also a huge letdown.

The strongest part of the game…and, that said, it’s not all that strong either, with the weak elements poisoning what should have been more fun.

GameDaily
Avoid taking this Path and track down the original Destroy all Humans instead. It's more fun and most importantly, cheaper.

GameSpot
If you enjoy tedious objectives, racially insensitive humor, and ugly graphics, the latest Destroy All Humans is right up your alley.

G4 TV
The story is surprisingly lengthy and more compelling than most video game stories, but it overdoes things with far too many low-brow jokes, childish innuendos and absurd parodies. Chances are you’ll find yourself laughing harder at the deplorable number of technical issues that plague the game than the actual jokes.

IGN
Skip this game. It looks terrible, the concept is stale, the storyline is lazy and full of racial stereotypes, and it feels like an unfinished idea.

Destructoid
Destroy All Humans is, at best, a mediocre exercise in boredom and at worst, a glitchy mess of incompetent design. It's lazy, it's dull and it's hideous to look at. Clearly rushed out in time for the holidays, you will effectively be abusing a loved one if you give them this as a holiday gift.

Games Radar
Avoid this one unless you’re a sucker for dickhead aliens. The Path of the Furon leads straight to disappointment.

GamePro
Say what you will about Destroy All Humans! Path of the Furon's shoddy graphics, lame script and bad physics -- when you throw it in the trash, it at least lands inside of the can instead of embedding itself in the wall.

1UP
Some will likely fight the flaws for another chance to terrorize their '70s-era brethren, but if the name "Crypto" doesn't bring to mind a litany of past quips, Furon will simply seem like an out-of-touch, thoroughly unpolished romp through mediocrity.
