Well that was irritating

I really don't get the great reviews on this game, maybe it's just me but in my opinion if a game gets anything over an 8 the NPC's lips should at least move when they talk, I felt like I was playing Zelda, the original one. Seriously guys, the graphics on this game, except for the cutscenes, are basically at a PS2 level. Now granted, I came to this after playing 100+ hours of Skyrim so maybe I'm a little biased. No, no I'm not, the graphics are really weak.

As for the gameplay, I could only stand about 2 hours of it and at that point it was either eject the disc or smash my controller and controllers aren't cheap. I don't mind a challenge, in fact I love games that are challenging, but this is just ridiculous. It's not challenging, it's not fun, it's frustrating and I don't know about you guys but I buy games to have fun. If I want to get frustrated I'll go to a Walmart.

If a game is going to be this overpowered in the AI department it should have something else going for it and I didn't see anything that would balance out the constant dying and having to fight the same zombie skeleton guys over and over and over and over again just to get back to where I was. And don't even get me started on the Boss fights, I'd rather my character just drop dead when they show up so I don't feel like a complete loser when they pin me in a corner and smash me for 20 seconds.

I rented it first, glad I did and recommend you do the same. If you're not into S&M you probably won't like the way this game makes you feel.
