Only played this game a few times- tried to get used to the way the character can move but just ended up getting frustrated. I was really was looking forward to this game but for me the limited movement of the character sucked and ruined it - if I wanted a games console style game I would go and buy a games console!
Fantastic but for the camera / controls!!

A good story with great action and lots of variety - combine items to make weapons and solve puzzles. Great graphics and fire affects are awesome. A great game which I would have gave 9/10, but the controls and camera can get really annoying so overall will give 7/10. Worth buying but maybe not at £24.99
So far so good.

I haven't got that far into the game just yet but I have to say it's a brilliant game. The graphics are stunning and the custom weapons are pure genius especially the mosquito spray/lighter combo.
One qualm so far is the mouse controls. I have the game on just about the lowest sensitivity and still the slightest nudge of the mouse will have you doing a 180.
Definatly off-putting. So much so that I have to pause the game and sit for a bit before continuing on just to stop myself from becoming too frustrated.
But still it's like my title suggests, so far so good.
