Excellent, stylish and atmospheric.
Some of the AI is a little ropey ("Oh, you've been shot in the head by a crossbow bolt have you mate? I'll just stand and watch") but this is made up by the pure entertainment value.
Great storyline, if a little unoriginal, think "The Bourne Identity" meets the Kennedy assasination, and an absolutely fantastic ending.
I was swearing at the monitor. Literally calling it all the names under the sun. Those that have completed the game will know exactly what I mean. :)
Well worth the cheapie price paid. Buy, and enjoy stylish storytelling and entertainment over slow engines, integrated physics and realistic graphics. This will probably be the last of these types of gams (static enviroments) and I've a feeling the second XIII game will be along the lines of Farcry, Half Life 2 and Doom3.
