Milking a popular franchise name

In short, this game was nothing more than a cheap, poorly done means of cashing in on the popular franchise.
I'd rate it worse if I didn't honestly expect little from a movie/TV based game. I had low expectations and boy did this deliver...
The pros:
- It's Lost, complete with your favorite characters.
- It's short, so you can move on to something better very soon.
- It returns to the time before the church and the horrible last season.
The cons:
- Everything else.
The only thing I expected out of the game was maybe for it to reveal a little more of the back story that wasn't in the show. But honestly, you don't learn anything about the island you didn't already know. Neither do you learn anything about the main characters you don't already know. It just adds a new character to the pantheon of characters. And a rather uninteresting character at that.
I honestly just sort of had to muscle my way through the game. There was nothing drawing me to play other than trying to get to the end so I could send it back.
