after everyone singing it's praises on here i bought it for the 360, the graphics weren't impressive and i couldn't get into the game at all really, i will try it again at some point when there is nothing else to play but there are a lot of other games i will put before it
 
Well I downloaded the demo and I quite like it.. I think some of the lighting effects are pretty nice.. fair enuff the frame rate aint the best but I can look pass that.. I can get it for £17.99 so you think thats worth it?
 
for £17.99 its a great game :D i completed it on the 360 and tried to play through again but i always get bored on the 2nd run, the story is pretty good, and some cool ideas to help you out.
 
Another decent game on the 360 i thought, one game i definitely enjoyed playing. Dunno if its any good on the PS3, mate of mine hasnt downloaded the demo himself but was mentioning it the other day...told him to try the demo out.

But i thought it was a pretty decent though, i liked the premise of the game ie the idea of it.
 
I'm not a massive shooter fan but this game just drew me in with amazing atmosphere and set pieces. It's pretty short but only £8 used (on 360) from a certain highstreet games retailer!

Already said by so many, better on Xbox360, but just because the PS3 version is inferior as a port surely doesn't suddenly make a great game a bad game?

Great story, great gameplay, great graphics, great concept... fantastic game.

Correct, bought mine from the Members market and loved it.
 
It's a great game...well worth the cash.

I've heard some terrible stories about the frame rate on the PS3 version, but I haven't tried it so can't comment for certain.

It does when executed so badly as on the PS3 version.

You've only played the demo, why are you volunteering such a scathing opinion on the entire game?
I have it, right near the end now, really excellent game, that just happens to be a bit graphically inferior to the 360 version, but what bearing that has on how good the game itself is I don't know.

So your saying the full game runs a lot better than the demo which has crap frame rate ? if so i stand corrected.

And yes bad frame rate does efect the way i like games.

Too busy enjoying the depth of story, the character development and the excellent narrative to notice tbh.
 
Indeed, the game is more than playable, it doesn't look as pretty as the 360 version and suffers from frame rate dips that the 360 avoids but its still an excellent game through and through.
 
Some flaws, and very clumsy controls, but otherwise very well put together. Recommended, especially at budget price.
 
It's a good play i must say, with a few twists that really mess you around =) Pity there's no-one playing the multiplayer any more, it has the capacity to be pretty fun

I thought the controls were absolutely bang on the money, as good as any FPS on a console, especially as you can harness the power of the darkness so easily.
