...ultimately its the boss battles that make this game
...FUN!!!
I had played the demo before I rented the full version, and I was very very impressed by the demo. What the demo does is, it bypasses the first boss battle, and instead gives you the second one, so it's out of order. Why you may ask? hehe The reason is simple, the camera has major problems, and you can't see too much of the problem in the area for the second boss, which is why it's in the demo instead of the first boss, which has a lot of camera problems in its area. So let's skip the intro and head to the details.
Here are the details.
Gameplay 8/10
Elements 8/10: This game plays like Dino Crisis 2. It's got the Resident evil style, mixed with a cool battle system. The battle system is a major plus. As it is fun. The menu system is pretty good, and straightforward, giving you info on the weapons, maps, enemy(including boss) traits, move list, etc.
Controls 6/10: The controls are pretty good per say in NORMAL situations. However the Camera Angle in many parts is HORRIBLE. It's so bad that you will come to hate it in a couple of boss battles. This really affects boss strategy. So because of the horrible camera angles influencing the control, I gave this part a 6/10.
Difficulty 8.5/10: When I played this game, I played it on Normal, and did not go with the easy option. The gameplay in general is not hard, although some enemies do pose a challenge... However some of the boss battles are pretty hard, and you have to get the pattern down for them. While not the hardest bosses I have ever seen, they are hard enough to warrant an 8.5/10 difficulty on Normal mode. I don't know how hard it is on Easy mode.
Story 6/10
There is basically very little story, and to top it off, the story is not very interesting. But it has it's moments. So for that reason I gave it a 6/10.
Audio 6/10
The sound and music are average. And the voice acting is sometimes good, and sometimes downright crappy.
Graphics 9/10
This game IS EYE CANDY. It looks very very good. Everything is nicely designed, from backgrounds, to characters, to Boss designs, to all the FMVs.
Value 7/10
Value 7/10: This game is basically over in 8-10 hours on the first time play. It doesn't have much replay value, and it's not that great of a game. But it's definitely worth a play. So for that I recommend RENTING, not buying this game.
Fun Factor 8/10
The game is pretty decent funwise. Although I have to say that ultimately its the boss battles that make this game fun.
Overall Rating 8/10
