...and try the game for yourself. Well, that is your right to do so, but be warned.
The only thing in this game the appears to work right is it's ability to suck! Need more info, please read on.
Ok, I didn't get this game for the story. Good thing too because anything decent it may have had to offer was ruined by the terrible audio delays. By this I mean that you have to wait 5-8 seconds between each characters script. Blah.
Even this was about the best thing I can say about the story.
Gameplay:
OMG aweful!!! Resident Evil 1 had some challenging control issues and camera angels...yet I loved that game. I even thought Obscure was alright. But these chaps went a step backward by trying to make it innovative with the motion controller and failing miserably.
Look at the manual to see what I mean.
Also, you have to be right in line with an enemy to kill it and when you have 15 of them around you, you have to change your character placement little by little to make sure you are lined up correctly to slay the next beastie.
Not to mention you can't attack while moving.
Your character sticks to everything. Run into a tree, have to back up and turn around. Not lined up right with the stairs, have to back up turn around. And when I say turn around I don't mean just turn around. You have to follow a flight plan and maneuver your boat for a character around in a circle towards the direction you want to go.
Walk into a room and your controls are reversed due to the view angle. By the time I killed my 4th ape I decided I had enough.
They don't provide enough space to warn people properly about this game. I wasn't expecting much and still was blown away by how bad it was.
