    Flawed, scruffy and inconsistent, but the small moments of magic [do] some way make up for the lack of overall polish. [July 2008, p.64]

    Annoyingly its potential is continually squandered by robot mechanics and tedious progression. [Aug 2008, p.104]
  3. An ambitious and in ways progressive survival horror game, whose ambition is hampered by its own numerous flaws. Whether these problems are a result of porting a current-gen title to a last-gen console remains to be seen, but the PS2 edition is very clearly a stripped down version of the impressive 360 game Atari have been displaying.
  4. This version has serious technical and design flaws that make it not much fun to play and are indication of a rushed conversion.

I'm surprised to see anyIt's been a long time since I played this game, but I just remembered it and was curious to see how it was rated. I'm surprised to see any positive reviews, because I thought this was one of the worst games I've played. I bought it and remember being highly disappointed. I would say avoid, but in the end it's your choice. Full Review »
