Player Reviews
Average score: 4.0 out of 5 (based on 13 ratings with 1 reviews)
The Good
- Compelling characters, good story which takes SH2 as a landmark.
- Atmospheric and well-paced levels, semi-open world (town) with interesting side-quests. Long corridors with dozens of closed doors from previous games are finally gone.
- Soundtrack is very different from previous installments, but it's still better than some of the Yamaoka's stuff.
The Bad
- The whole third act in prison.
- Combat system could be more developed (although i suspect it's an intentional choice).
- Enemies design is very unimaginative.
The Bottom Line
I'm surprised to see so many negative reviews. In many ways, this is a much better game than, dare i say, any installment since SH2 (with a possible exception of Shattered Memories).
