Bad

Legendary

I can usually keep myself entertained for quite awhile with just about any decent game. In other words, I'm not too picky. But I have to say Legendary was one of the worst games I have played in a long time, and certainly the worst on PS3. (Yes, I am sure there are games that are worse, and no I am not interested in trying them out in comparison). The game play is very simplistic, and to be honest way to hard for the beginning of a game. Its unfortunate, because the story line had potential to be good. I lost interest somewhere after the second "boss", so maybe it gets better. I wasn't up to finding out though. I would not suggest renting it unless your almost out of games left to play.

I'll be honest here: it's the rare game that has me sealing up the Gamefly envelope after only 25 minutes. In this case, nearly half that time was waiting for the stupid thing to finish installing. After a quick spin through the dire opening minutes, I couldn't see wasting another second on Legendary.

I'd look past the Playstation One era graphics, the cheap hobbyist-quality level design with the painfully stiff models and their limited animation, if there was a game here. Maybe there is a game here, but life's short and I didn't make it out of the first level. The early going is just painfully boring, slapped-together generic shooter rubbish in dull looking buildings with all the detail of an early Duke Nukem game. Plus -- ha ha -- long load times, in case you need even less fun.

Fail.

The game is bad. Do not even rent.
The first thing I can say about this game is that the graphics are ok. They are not revolutionary they are not even good. The Second is that the music is pretty good. It all goes very downhill from here. The game play is slow and confusing. The checkpoints are spread far apart. I played this game for about 45 minutes and turned it off. I played through the same part 3 times, not because I'm bad but because it takes forever to pick up that life force junk. It could get better later in the game but I don't have that much patience or want to see. Great premise, horrible execution.
I can't say anything about online play because I was so disgusted with the game that I couldn't bring myself to play it.
