Summary

The worst game ever!

The Good

The intro cinematics were very well done. This was pixar quality.

The Bad

Unfortunately, that is the last place once dare venture. The player is thrown into a sloppy, ugly pirate ship scene without much knowledge as to WHY. You fight off these little corpse enemies while the "tutorial" is flashing at you PRESS X AND X. X AND A. ISN'T THIS FUN? It just starts a myriad of retarded nonsense. The combat just revolves on trying to manipulate the awful, unresponsive controls so old Princey here can make these mind-numbing combos.

Alas, don’t fret. Soon, you go into the interior portion of the ship, drink some nasty still seawater, and get healed… what? That’s right. Breeding grounds for maggots = health! Whatever. Developer stupidity, but then again, so is the boring gameplay. Did I mention Spawn Armageddon is more fun? Really. Anyhow, more killing of these corpse things… then a boss fight with a dominatrix. If you can get the idiot off the ground, Prince can inflict some minor damage while the game screams out the boring combos for you to do. I fell asleep on the Xbox. Then, you wake up, and some stupid puzzle sequence. Wow. As boring as this review. I gave up after that.

The Bottom Line

If you like boring, generic "action games" then please pick up this miserable title. If you would like a wholesome gaming experience... I dunno.
