Well, I've got mixed feelings about the game so far. It's clear from the outset that this is far from a classic of any form. The framerate slows frequently (but not to the point where it's unplayable) and the environments are a little too angular and bland in places.
Still, plenty of commendable points to make. The enemies are nicely detailed, as are the weapons, and the controls aren't too better. It's a little unexciting at first, using a crappy bow and having to find keys etc. But things start to pick up once you get hold of meatier weapons. I just had a rather entertaining sort of boss battle against a horde of killer chimps! Lol!
So far, slightly above average, I'd say. :/
I'll wait and pick it up 2nd hand, too many much better games coming out to be bothered with this.
I don't think the postman has come yet though.
> Worth getting then?
In my opinion, yes, it is worth getting, just about.
Was playing it a few mins ago, died, went back to loading screen and then the game locked up and the tv omitted a high-pitched continuous note that really drills into your head!
How odd...
The second part of chapter 3 is prooving to be quite a challenge, even with the shotgun. :)
