Enslaved: Odyssey to the West for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

This game has more heart than I have seen in a game in a long time. Superb voice acting, great dialogue, balanced fighting, gripping story line. While this game is not trying to break any boundaries with gameplay, it does stand its ground and does not disappoint. For fans of God of War, Dante's Inferno. It's not a terribly long game, but it cuts out all the grizzle and gets straight to the meat, and boy did it taste good. Play it. You won't be let down.

I was not sure what to expect going into this game, considering that it is a modern twist on an old Chinese story. But I was thoroughly captivated by it from start to finish. The graphics make the post-apocalyptic world in this game look gorgeous! The controls and scheme of the game do feel a bit repetitive after a while, but that should not take away from the fact that this game is truly a work of art.

Normally I will play games and not really care for the sidekick that you have with you, because usually they are an annoyance. But Trip is very different. She is not only helpful in platforming situations, but she pulls at your heartstrings as the story progresses. I will not spoil it for anyone, but I will say that I actually ended up caring about her character, and caring about her story.

If you like platforming games, you will love Enslaved! It is a rather short game, but definitely worth the rent!
