The Good
- Visually it's very unique and stylish, interesting direction.
- Same can be said about sound design & music.
- Visceral enemy encounters.
- Most of the time the game looks very good for 2005.
The Bad
- Story intrigues at first but descends into incoherent madness as you get closer to the ending.
- Levels are mostly consists of abandoned buildings of different origin and almost every one of them is incredibly bland.
- Annoying backtracking, very bulky and clumsy controls.
- The engine can barely keep itself from breaking apart at this point.
The Bottom Line
A guilty pleasure. It's not really great, but i like it.
