Feels kind of like a modern "Raiders of the Lost Ark"

This game was a lot of fun. It created a plot and characters that I actually cared about. I really ended up wanting to see what happened to them. The scenery was amazing, some of the best environments I've ever seen in a game, and the characters moved very realistically. The gunfighting sometimes seemed a little off though. Some of the weapons seemed much more efficient in the hands of the enemies. They could kill me with one shot, but it took two or three to take them down. Ah well, just a little bit more of a challenge.

There were also the puzzle-solving parts of the game, which were a pleasant way to break up the action and make it feel a little more like a treasure hunt, but some of them followed the same kind of pattern, so there wasn't as much variety in there as there could have been.

The game did seem a little short... I finished it in about 10 hours, but I really would not have minded it lasting a few more. If you were to just play the story through, it would probably only take 7 or 8 hours, so it almost feels like the little treasures you are supposed to find on the way through are just busy work to make the game last longer...

But all in all, this really was a good game, one worth playing through a few more times... because in spite of a few weaknesses, this game was just plain fun to play!
