I gave up on this game as it was annoying with the keys+mouse

So I tried tonight with 360 controller and its a good game so far.

Its only problems is it feels plasticy...Like Mass Effect 2 is Platinum, this is plasticy if you know what I mean.. Its a real good idea/game but just lacks that final polish

ALso its pretty easy. I think the more I level up the easier it becomes...It become real easy...Well Im only in S.Arabia so far.

Graphics aint that bad either though they been criticized.
 
Anyway its 6:50 am and Im still up playing computer games. I play all day and all night ever day. My backlog is like 100+ games and many I want to replay many, buy new ones etc...

Have I got problems? NO?

There is just not enough time in the day!!!!!
 
I quite enjoyed it. It was something different that had potential. It wasn't the best game ever but it was worth a play and I did complete it which is more than I've done for some games.

I ended up playing a second playthrough but i ended up leaving it to play something else. I came back though, if only to finish it off.

Playing games through a second time is more of a rarity for me now that im older. Not many games seem to hold my attention for long
 
I might give this another go at some point, I picked it up in the last steam summer sale, played 10 mins, got fed up, never played it again. I think my downfall with this game was I went into it expecting some sort of MGS/SplinterCell hybrid, which it is most certainly not.

I'll shove it on my to-do list right after EFLC and some L4D2 :D
 
h,m i got it for free when dixons opened there download service. I havent even started it yet but this thread is tempting me to do so!
 
I've decided to take a gamble on this. Sounds like an interesting premise for a game so should be worth the £1.50 even if it isn't fully up to standard :p
 
I bought it ages ago, found it utterly mediocre and the gunplay was as ropey as they come.

Stupid AI that just sits behind cover, and doesn't react when you flank them.

I have played much, much worse but there would be no reason for me to go back to this game at the moment.
 
not bad, the walk and crouch animation is a bit funny, kinda feels like a cross between original Dues Ex and Metal gear series.

Worth £1.50 at least :p

Just downloaded it, I had to run mine in XP mode, anyone else have to? I thought this worked as is on 64bit win 7.

I could run in win7 but i found it lagged really bad, so when i run in XP it stopped lagging, but i don't like the mouse controls for it seems a bit stuttery :/ Going to try with controller later :P Still got a bit of lag though which is annoying.
