So So, very overly Hyped

What can be said about this game, not much. The storyline for this game is so drab it's unbelivable. With the fact that is is alot like The Suffering series in so many ways, hard to believe people don't see it. The animations are probably some of the worst I've seen in any 3-D game. The plasmids is a cool idea but how many times can you watch a fire or lightning bolt and still be amazed? Thing I also don't understand is how people can complain about the game being too easy. So a guy has this inhuman ability to shoot fire, ice,lightning, have telekkinis and munipulate enemies to his advantage, and somehow the enemy must be harder to beat, knowing he has all these powers? Not to mention guns, explosives devices, ETC. If this guy existed in real life he'd be unstoppable, so why is the easy of the game surprising? Not the game being too easy, it's the fact the guy has all these powers, he's a boss himself, why shouldn't the guy be hard to kill? I'll admit there certainly is a bizzare factor going on in the game, some characters in the game should seek a mental Health specialist. Really though, this game has been done so many times before, with the only difference being how many powers you can utilize, making objects, ETC. The game has absolutely no replay value whatsoever, but that's not a bad thing, almost all game these days have no replay value. Choppy sound sequences are also part of the bag, and the fact the game is a complete memory hog. You can even minimize the game. right click your task manager tray and get a look at how much of your computer is being used just to run the game, providing you disable all background programs. Normal to me is around 45%, for games these days, and on my machine it was 55%. I have a decent computer 3.0 GHZ 2GB Ram, 512 mb video card, if you don't have at least that, you will crash alot, and have sound problems. Also might I recommend not having Windows Vista, the game seems to hate it. Good game, but way overhyped, it's a fair FPS at best.
