Well worth a fiver.

Bit too "on rails" for my liking but nice graphics and reasonable story.

Its great as a graphics show case if you've got a decent PC. Quite creepy in parts too. I might buy it for a deep sea diver and save it for when I get my new GPU, I had to knock all the setting down on my current card

Always been interested in this game, and it seems a bargain for £5. Just got to find time to play it.

I have had this since release day, and I love the game, just about to do a play through on Ranger Hardcore mode, just need to see if my 4890 can last that long!!

Well I'm using the treasure hunt as the perfect opportunity to play through the game again on the Ranger difficulty. No idea how hard it was so went for easy Ranger setting and enjoying it a lot more this time round. Also looks better on my new machine so that's a bonus too.

Guessing this is a bit like Stalker?

Never heard of it but if its like Stalker might give it a bash.

Bought it in the Black Friday sales, i've actually quite enjoyed it, it's quite linear but definitely a good blast.

Mattyjw · 15 Dec 2010 at 20:32

I'll probably pick it up after I get a new graphics card so.

ak22 · 15 Dec 2010 at 21:07

Great game very liner, only about 10-12 hours long but well worth it

(ST)Pohaku · 15 Dec 2010 at 22:06

Deal done.

Thanks for posting this - it probably is in the Steam sale thread, but I have a habit of not opening threads with more than one or two pages, so I'd have missed this if not for this thread.

Just have to wait a few decades for my BT 'broadband' connection to DL it now!

Just got this game. Blimey!!!

Im using the direct x 11 settings all on full and with my overclocked 5850 I only get 30fps average. Its perfectly playable with no stutter as in never really drops below 30 but still, over 70 with any other first person shooter and no less than 50 any other game, geez...

Looks super nice tho!

Couldn't resist it at a fiver. Even though Christmas has already dropped us into the red for the next few days 'til payday.

...just don't tell the wife.

CaptainRAVE · 16 Dec 2010 at 09:27

Couldn't get into this the first few times. But since I needed the Steam achievement, they have fixed performance on the ATI cards and I have gotten further it is pretty good.

GTAMADDOG · 16 Dec 2010 at 10:30

So, I gave in and bought this as soon as I turned my computer on this morning. Downloading it now, currently 13% and downloading at 750kb/s.

Chevens · 16 Dec 2010 at 13:35

I'd say well worth it for £5 - Think I paid £15 for it a while ago in a previous sale, and thought that was good value

pzr vr6 · 16 Dec 2010 at 17:47
