The game is fun and addicting, but it definately has it's flaws. One most notable is the fact that they have these awesome graphics, but you never see them because the game is so dark and the flashlight issue, you spend 70% of the game shooting into shadows hoping you hit the demons. Then with no warning and no possible way of knowing it was coming, another one hits you from behind. Even if you adjust your gamma on your graphics card, it is still difficult to see some of the monsters leaping around in the shadows. I have speant a lot of the game shooting and running back to a lit area and firing on enemies as they rounded the lit corner where i could see them. THey made the game so dark cause they wanted to make it scary but it is the equivalent of shooting rifle into a lake and hoping you hit a fish, except these fish bite and bad! The game is fun when you can actually see, and the lowered weapon sounds in my opinion is kinda nice since you don't have to turn it down so your neighbors don't get pissed from the loud sounds of a Machine Gun going off, or the other problem of turning the game down because the weapon fire is so loud but then you can't here the rest of the game. Ok, gamespot's review they said only 2 or 3 monsters, i have seen a lot more than that in some spots. There is usually 2 or three, not only. The choice of extending the bridge or doing something else, if you go down in the lower pit it is a booby trap and at least 6 maybe seven spawn at once and they respawn 2 or more times (i wasn't counting, to busy flinging lead down range but i know there was a lot of them). And those dern spider critters are a serious pain with the overwhelming numbers and always in very small spaces. ok, i have ranted enough. The really nice new graphics and then not being able to see them is my biggest beef, oh and shooting blindly into the dark hoping to hit something, other than that, it is great and very addicting.
I think this game is indeed the best game I've ever played. I like it because it scares me, though I've played it before. The gameplay is really rapid, you should always load your weapons, otherwise you would be torn apa... Read Full Review
This game is not for the faint of heart, the paranoid or the weak stomached. Playing this game alone in the dark with headphones at full blast is one of the most enjoyable if un-nerving experiances you can have with a ga... Read Full Review
