I'm not a fan of these games either, but at least the destruction of buildings is pretty interesting; they're constructed like real buildings. If you can identify the supporting walls and columns, just target those with explosives and the whole building comes down. Pretty cool.
GTA on mars, basically, with the possibility for large scale demolitions thrown into the mix. Sadly the look of it just screams "I'm a console game!", leaving the demolitions stuff to carry it, which doesn't seem enough.
