    Great game for its time. Serves as a prequel to the Blair Witch Trilogy (Vol 1 - Rustin Parr, Vol II - The Legend of Coffin Rock, and Vol III - The Elly Kedward Tale). It still feels like a movie due to the sound quality; would recommend for fans of Alan Wake.

    Une vieille daube horrifique dans la même veine que les étrons à la Resident Debil et consorts (con-sorts pardon) mais dont la prétention du développeur peigne-cul est presque aussi consternante que l'injouabilité (la non-jouabilité) totale et irrécupérable de ce machin boulotté par une bande de trous de balle.

    C'est un jeu DX6 (avec option DX7 !) et ça marche difficilement sur XP après    Une vieille daube horrifique dans la même veine que les étrons à la Resident Debil et consorts (con-sorts pardon) mais dont la prétention du développeur peigne-cul est presque aussi consternante que l'injouabilité (la non-jouabilité) totale et irrécupérable de ce machin boulotté par une bande de trous de balle.

    C'est un jeu DX6 (avec option DX7 !) et ça marche difficilement sur XP après le patch officiel nécessaire et indispensable parce que sinon ça marche que dalle... Ensuite, en mode compatibilité 95, ça daigne se lancer malgré de gros soucis de lenteur dans les menus : il faut compter plusieurs secondes après avoir appuyé pour que le jeu se réveille ; je vous raconte pas le temps pour reconfigurer les touches dans ces conditions...

    Eventuellement aorès un certain temps, le machin daigne lancer la partie et là, on contrôle une espèce d'ombre incontrôlable dans un environnement de bureaux déserts et uniquement avec des caméras fixes (à la Resdent Debil). La souris qu'on a beau avoir activé ne sert à rien sauf dans le menu qui lague sa race et les déplacements sont indéplaçables : on a l'impression de diriger un mammouth bourré qui écrase les prix et notre (non infinie) patience avec...

    Bon enfin bref, c'est juste une vieille chiasse qui ne mérite pas plus d'attention que ça, sauf à marcher dessus avec ses godasses ou à vidanger directement dans les chiottes parce que Nocturne, ça casse les burnes !    … Expand
