wow this game is just flat out amazing. every detail from the mercs to riddick himself... omg.. amazing...

it really takes FP to its own lvl. i mean how cool is it to shoot all the lights in the game and sneak around stabbing mercs in the back, snapin their necks ect. its just too much fun... to top it off we can re-live the butcher bay moments and for those who didnt play the first one you guys will love it. only thing i would say that sucks is how they dont give much descripition on how to get from point A to point B... you tend to get lost sometimes.... uugghhh... but overall great gameplay...

just though id share it.:P

for me 8.8/10

I'm glad its good I have been looking forward to this for a while. I loved the original game and the only real complaint I ever had with it was sometimes it is hard to know which way to go but it never bothered me that much.

Im gonna pick it up because I never got to finish Butcher Bay on my PC. I hear Dark Athena is pretty bad. Its like they turned it into a FPS now and all the awesome sneaking elements are gone. Which is the main reason why I enjoyed the game. Have you played Athena at all and is it like some of the reviewers say?

yea im starting with athena cause i passed butcher bay already... but ill pass it again for the achievements....

but its nothing like they say... storyline is alright but the gameplay itself is another storyline.(if you know what i mean)

the gameplay keeps you sucked in and it doesnt dissapoint... its just the problem from getting lost sometimes cause you tend to get lost a lot..

I played the demo for literally 45 seconds and deleted it. In an over saturated genre you need to capture players' attention extremely fast, and Riddick just did not do it for me.

Getting lost in the demo happened to me. Things seemed to be going fine than all of a sudden I got struck and could not find my way out. Spoiled my impression of the game.

I had no problem with getting stuck in the demo. I thought it was great fun, and though I likely won't buy the game, I will rent it.

I recommend Ritalin. I got an early copy of this game and so far I'm pretty happy with it. The FPS genre in general is chock full of far too many similar titles for me to get excited about anything new even if it's potentially a AAA title. Riddick, on the other hand, was innovative in two respects: 1) It added RPG-style elements into an FPS-style game 2) It was a game based on a movie that didn't suck While Riddick wasn't the first FPS RPG hybrid (nor is is -that- RPG-ish when compared to other titles like Deus Ex 1) it gave us an FPS in which there was more to do than shoot everything in front of you. The idea of an FPS/RPG is something that hasn't really been explored, probably because it's hard to get right. So far I've only played Butcher Bay (since I never beat it on the original Xbox) and I've been happy with it. As I'm sure you saw in the demo, the graphics are good but not quite as good as I would have hoped for a remaster of an Xbox game. -Byshop

Does it look any better than the demo? I plan on buying it, I was a huge fan of the original and I liked the demo. I might buy it tomorrow, it depends on how much I have left over from my paycheck though.

There's no possible way you could even get an impression in 45 seconds.
