okay, i know this game is like so last year, and the 2nd is coming out soon, but i only just got a hold of it, and just completed and wow....what a short bloody game. When the achievement popped for deal with every little sister i was like oh...the games nearly over. it felt like i was just begginging to scracth the surface of rapture, and then the game ends. oh well i only paid a tenner for this (about 20 dollars i think) if id paid retail for it i sure as hell would have been peeved. Overall good game. Reminds me of the game Gene Troopers on xbox 1, which i think got cancelled but i got a copy from a friend. I didnt like the how much damage the bad guys took, i still think they could go down slightly easier, the lack of a radar, or way of identifying where your getting hit from is a sheer joke, i really hated the way bad guys just randomly ended up next to me melleeing the crap out of me. Storylines really good, and the plasmids are a nice addition. A more developed experiance system, or more gradual upgrades of each plasmid would have added diversity in the uniqueness of this experiance but i did like how each stage effects your hand further, like the level 1 incinerate ability has a little bit of fire, where as the 3rd level your hands nearly consumed in flames. personally i liked it, there was a lot of hype around this game so i avoided it for a good while and glad i did really. Theres a few tweaks i would have done, like increase the tension and make some shock moments to incorperate some horror, more diversity in plasmids, slightly easier yet more damaging bad guys. so imho an okay game. worth playing, not worth spending loads new. Theres a lesson to be learned hear - patience is a virtue u save money. Unlike my friend pressuring me to buy resident evil 5, then i turn out hating it, i could have so waited to get it cheap then pay nearl 40 pounds for it!
It's an ok game but it lost my attention fast. I've had it for about 8 months now and I'm still only half way through it. _________________________________________________________

i finished it near 100% first day i got it.. Was one of the most interesting stories in a game for a long time.. (around when it came out).. I wrote guides and stuff for that game in our cheats area.. Spent hrs on it and was fun..
Cant' wait for bioshock 2 personally.. Its good to get away from online games occassionally and kick back with a single player campaign with a good story and graphics.
I loved and rolled this game, short yes but over all the new price was to high for the game length.
i got it cheap and late but at the low price found it to be one hell of a good game.

Meh, I hated the game. People hyped it up to much, and it could never match up, I found it to be boring. _________________________________________________________

It shows as unplayed on your game card so im guessing your going off the demo or 5 min of play on a friends system, never buy the hype or all games will suck.

At least Phantasy Star is unique... but PSO > PSU... and Bioshock is fail... _________________________________________________________
