A superb game overall, with excellent graphics, gameplay and storyline. The trouble is in the length: I finished this title in two days on normal difficulty with only one section offering me enough of a challenge where I had to restart more than twice. However, the gameplay was a lot of fun. The graphics were great: giving the illusion of being trapped in a prison (cannot imagine why...), and terrific lighting and shadow effects. I just with it was a bit harder: basically, all you have to do is kill a lot of guys in a variety of ways. Only a few really tough boss-type battles to endure, and fairly standard A.I. (not a bunch of dumb enemies, but they could stand to be a bit brighter at times). Overall, a good game to rent for a weekend and beat, with little to offer for multiple plays.
