A little on the short side, but still worth the money, or at least a rental if you're cheap.

This game, is one of those games, that reminds me why I still play video games. The graphics may seem outdated to elitists but I find them to be great. The sound effects are spot on, it could be something falling over making you turn around, or your own footsteps making you wonder if someone is following you, either way it will leave you spooked. The use of lighting is fantastic, it never gets old when you're walking around and all of the sudden an enemy pops out of a dark corner, and I swear I couldn't see him before. The A.I. is awesome. One of the scariest moments in the game was when I was walking in a subway and there's what looks to be a homeless guy sleeping on a bench, and he jumps up and charges me with an axe! There were several moments in this game that made me yell oh god! The developers effectively build suspense until all of the sudden someone pops up or shoots you through a window or something. Best of all is the combat, some of the situations were so intense I literally felt like I was fighting for my life, partly due to the first person perspective I think. I have to say, this brings that terror of the Silent Hill series together with realism and better, more innovative combat. Best of all, I bought this used for $14.99. Best 15 bucks I've spent in a while.
