It's $30, 30 euro, £25Looks interesting. If the price is decent I'll pick it up.
Review embargo is in ~25 minutes I think.

Seems like its gona be procedural boring tasks. I still think LA noire is the goat cop game
First review I see. 6/10.
The review makes the game sound pretty awesome actually, ha! I liked the demo enough to get it for $30.

The Precinct Review - Risky Police Business | SavePoint Gaming
With a focus of the right side of the law, The Precinct has some good ideas, but the execution can be considered downright criminal at times.savepointgaming.co
The action occurs both on foot and in vehicles so, whenever you're not airborne over the city, a typical shift will involve hoofing it after some suspects before tackling and subduing them – and high-speed, paint-trading car chases to catch others. Those car chases are terrific thanks to The Precinct's strong handling model. Vehicles may appear cute and toy-like on screen thanks to the elevated, isometric camera angle, but they're not sticky or twitchy. They have a really well-honed sense of weight as you hurl their all-American bulk into handbrake turns to negotiate corners. When a gaggle of squad cars with sirens blazing close in on a fleeing perp all at once, there are times when The Precinct reminds me more of the original Driver than the old 2D GTA games. (The original Driver as viewed from a low-flying drone, that is.)
Game runs on every console at 30fps. just want to tell you all.
I can wait for a patch your ass will remain uneatenIncoming barrage of "Fuck that" "Not buying" "What the fuck?" "Talentless hacks" and "Will wait for a sale"
I'm still buyin and all of you whiners can eat my ass

The Precinct Review - IGN
The Precinct’s focus on proper protocol eventually wears a little thin, but its gorgeous, top-down take on GTA-inspired action from the right side of the law is undeniably arresting.www.ign.com
And here the driving sounds great
More like the early Driver games than it is the original GTA?

Edit: wait why is it getting such low reviews across the board? What's the catch other than the 30fps on consoles?
Well, now we know why there was an embargo. Shame

Stop believing the numbers people and think for yourself papi
The Precinct places a clear focus on following correct procedure, and you'll earn fewer experience points if you make errors or stray from the rules. This will mean levelling up delays and slower access to the upgrade trees if you go rogue and accost people before checking their ID, attack civilians, use inappropriate force on perps, or issue bogus parking tickets. You won't lose XP from your previously banked total, but being a bad cop will wipe out your daily gains. Most of the upgrades are fairly typical – resilience to attacks, greater ammo capacity, and the like – but naturally it pays to have as many as you can when you find yourself in a shootout. The abilities to call in heavy-duty riot vans and roadblocks are definitely useful in helping end pursuits, too.
