Flat game for a fat price.
Is it great? No. Is it bad? Again, no, just medicore. No way in any sense, is this game a 5/5, let alone worth the £24.99 price tag. £19.99 is the area i'd say; wait for a sale unless you really want it. The only 'The Thing' about this game is having a flamethrower in one hand and an extinguisher in the other while burning some aliens as they try to run; in that moment, you feel like Mac... sadly, it fades fast and rears its head for a nostalgia high. Completed two runs, one on 'Normal,' during which I encountered three minor glitches that were not worth mentioning, but they resolved themselves after a quick reload, and another on 'Very Hard,' which ran without a hitch. Issues for me are the "ammo, ammo," the same for items: torches, extinguishers, plentiful nades, weapons, oh, the weapons... Yup, you will be packing a lot of doubles of guns and plenty of health packs before and after you get stripped clean, and the only time the "stop and go command" is actually used as it should have been intended is in the lab area where JC and 9mm become friends. The infection system is improved in how it should have been than scripted events; on my second run, it surprised me when the flamethrower hypochondriac turned on me but the other guy didn't; he got cooked all the same before turning. Enemy variety drops in the later part as you mostly fight the one-armed bladed types mutant miss piggies, and the norris wannabes. Tall boys needed more game time. Infected NPCs now drop weapons/ammo you gave them; this, to me, breaks the game in the balance of giving ammo and weapons out and losing them for good; they should have kept it like that or tied it to a separate difficulty that would have played better with the updated infection system and made use of the test kits that I only used once at the start for Pierce due to the abundance of "guns, guns, guns..." Soldiers don't turn; it would have been good for infighting and the vault extra is barebones.
