The first time that I saw this game was when my mate was playing it, I couldn’t see why he thought it was so good, until my brother got it me for Christmas. I played through the first level and was bricking it because of the eerie setting of dark streets, the silence and the way you can hear his heart beat when a hunter approaches. So I stopped playing it, but after a bit I started again and I was hooked! It is amazing how rockstar have made this game, the suspense, the way you don’t know what is around the next corner, the variety of different weapons to use the shotgun is great when you blow the heads off the hunters. This game can also use the headset so that you can shout and taunt the hunters, not that they can tell what you are saying but they still come running to beat you up, it also adds to the mood of the game making it more tense. The only problem with this game is that each weapon only has three ways to execute with, it would have been better if you could hold down another button and perform a different kill instead of mashing the hunters brains all over the wall with the baseball bat all the time. But back to the good side of the game, there are the cheats which you can unlock and the extra levels only 4 but its still good the amount of hours I have spent on “brawl game” I cant remember, its a fight to the death against different groups of hunters on the basket ball court of the opening level great stuff, the unlock able art work is pretty smart as well showing you the background to the groups of hunters such as where they are from, leaders etc. Some of the comments that the hunters come out with are hilarious! Overall I am glad to have this game in my collection, good story behind it and it brings in a new way to look at stealth games. I would recommend it to any one who likes games like resident evil or games that scare the crap out of you.
