I remember reading positive things about this somewhere, maybe IGN, so I gave it a download to see what it' s like.

I didn' t play it for long, but I was very unimpressed. The visuals are quite poor from what I remember, the game play seems REALLY boring - Even if there is a girl with a sword.

So I guess this is one to skip on at least, for me anyway.

Hmm, I wanted this to be good. But inevitably game outings from talented artists from outside the game industry end up rubbish, all art design and no gameplay. Codemasters arent great either.

Will d/l tonight.

Well the graphics are good, with some nice lighting and distance blur. The frame rates solid too. Of course the atmosphere and art design is really repressive (and impressive).

In the end its just a bog standard FPS though. And the characters and story remind me more of films like Blade 2 (the shit one) and Aliens vs Predator than Nighmare on Elm Street and Hellraiser.

So I wont be buying it, sorry Clive.

Its alright, but I really like the qte, easily the best one I have played altough maybe its a bit fast..

This game has some cool aspects but boring shooting and the fact it reeks of B-movie hurts.

it' s okay.

Good graphics,great fucked up twisted dark gothic settings and characters,but at the end of the day the combat is medicore.

but sure,if the strory+settings is cool enough it might be worth getting,but I will probably pass on it.
Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.
