The AI is top notch, the first time I’ve actually found myself being flanked by enemies, pinned down by their weapons, flushed out with grenades and even encircled by those I foolishly though just ran away to hide. It gives the action sequences a much more cinematic feel. The scary bits are plentiful too, the demo only gave a brief taste of these, there are many more in the full game, some of which only made me go ‘meh’ others made me whimper like a little sissy.
It’s certainly not varied, if your not shooting things then you tend to be in dark, dingy corridors waiting for the next apparition to appear, but damn, it’s fun, perhaps some of the most fun I’ve had with a FPS for a long while.
The girl at the stairs and then the ghost-guy at the bottom, ArghH!Hh! I shot him for about 3 seconds until i stopped crying, and then i looked and he was gone. And then the corridor! afrata!
I wan to play it all but I don't take being scared well, and that was actually scary, not Doom 3 style, where "scary" means "predictable and dull"
Someone hold me : (
