...yes, a below-average 4/10 from me with some 8hrs played (couldn't take another step, sorry, but I think that's a fair screw), and taking into account gameplay and narrative issues too, and yes on old hardware - no less - that has outputted much, much better performances from more demanding games in its distant past.Last edited by Golgo; 22-10-2014, 18:06.

Where have I reviewed any "XBone One" (that's a new one) games and given them scores
At least Golgo owned and played the game for a good number of hours , which is a dam sight more than you do with games you love to slag off

Just finished it. Credits are rolling now.
Just left totally numb about the whole game. It's not terrible but it's not really very good either.
Thinking back over the game, i can't really remember much about, nothing sticks out as oh man that bit was cool or that bit was amazing.
I liked The Keeper but he didn't really do anything.
Last boss was on rails nonsense.....saved my magnum ammo for nothing.
Story didn't grip me, didn't care for any of the characters, same old weapons from other games, upgrades were basic...
No desire to play it again.
I'm totally gutted to tell you the truth......Mikami has really let me down.Last edited by NeoDragoN; 23-10-2014, 21:51.

Just started this up on the PC, 1080p isn't displaying right from the off so going to have a look into that but 900p worked fine giving it a very Gears of War vibe to the fonts etc. It's very old school looking and in places a bit more budget than RE4 it feels. Already I get the feeling that it's not going to be an amazing game, definitely no attempt to be scary so far. But early days and next I'm going to crack open the debug menu and see what can be tinkered with to make the experience better. The mega sized letterbox image is the dumbest decision...

Its a funny one...as even though I'm acutely aware of all the limitations and drawbacks whilst playing, when it hits its stride and is on top form, it's fantastic fun to play. Certain levels (all near the start of the game) stand out as particularly enjoyable experiences, where it seems to hit a sweet spot, and almost feels like my favourite old school survival horror games blended together and remastered in HD.
However, when the wheels come off in places, you really notice it. It bursts your cosy little rose-tinted bubble and leaves you (or me anyway!) utterly annoyed.
I finally managed to get past the chapter 10....scenario.....and it just left such a bad taste in the mouth. Up to Chapter 13 now, and Mr Kirov just nailed it...definitely could have had a level snip.

I'm all for long games, but I feel this suffers for being overly long. If they trimmed the levels, and kept the set pieces from each in there- it would be a more memorable experience. I live survival horror and appreciate what it's doing, and I'm enjoying it- but right now I feel like I just want it to end.
