I bought this game a year ago and just want to let any new PS2 gamers that if you're into action games, this one is a steal for $20. It's a direct sequel to the 1982 film "The Thing" with Kurt Russell. You command a squad in the arctic to find out what happened at this research base. The story is long and the levels can be quite challenging trying to get through the aliens (and the elements). I enjoyed the story enough that I'm gonna keep it. It's one of those games you can play, set it on the shelf for about a year and if there aren't any newer games out that get your fancy you could throw this one back in and bump up the difficulty.
