This game is totally cool! The combat system and shealth action and tactics combined to be perfect gameplay even till nowaday's standard, doom3 styles of graphic, but better..seamless and integrated combat and moves make you totally addicted to it..evading guards on patrol in utter darkness, cut their neck and dig their body to dark corners..shealth action is VERY important to your survival and remember, you are on the role to escape and evade not run and gun...since in game battle rifles need to be DNA confirmed..so you wouldn't be able to use one but only on very occasion ones..this make the game make challenging and exciting, also, it has RPG element like you can receive missions from other prisoners and a open world of prison..

The only thing that make this game couldn't get above a 9 is because of it short gameplay..this is kinda sad..only 15-20s hours of gameplay on normal/hard level..there is few chances to re-play 'cause you won't wanna go back and feel the max prison and deaths.

The story is also a bit bad..I mean..you have succeeded in escaping for 5 times before you make the real escape..but those all in the end put you back to the start to escape, again.

I mean, that doesn't make any sense, why would the gaurds still let you live if you have almost escape from max.prison, where those guards don't care about prisoner lives and shoot whenever they have a chance? Morever, you got lots of gaurds blood on your hand..is it silly for them to just let you live?

And they let you live for times..

The other bad part is that the story grow a bit insanity near the end..figthing robots..

The most frustating part for this great game is that it don't have any multiplayer..if there is one..it would be perfect!!! dozens of players fighting close-quartters, or standards gun match..or even include with robots combat...perfect!

But there isn't. Making it a solid singleplayer with limited re-playability, this also limiting the total game play to 10-20 hrs only.

Presentation-7.5/10
Graphic-8.5/10
Gameplay-10/10(excellent!)
Sound-8.5/10
Value:7/10
Multiplayer-none=0/10

Overall 8/10..I am very disappointed with it having no multiplayers..
