Clive Barker's Undying

Clive Barker spins a great tale. This comes out solidly in the game itself (it's one from the age when games used to have a story, then built a game around that story to tell a tale, instead of saying "Ooo, look at what shiny things we can put on a screen. What's a story by the way?"). I got this originally at release, when the graphics were state of the art, and was absolutely blown away by the atmosphere; there are well crafted story points that draw you in, not so much by what they show you, as by what's intimated and you don't see. At the price listed, if you want good, horror entertainment, this is a must have. If you're not sure I'm right in my estimation, for the price of a coffee at the local coffee shop (well, less actually) you can have hours of amusement. If I'm wrong, then it'll still last longer than that coffee..

This game needs a remake, a well done remake... Really. Take my money now.

With a story written by Clive Barker and solid gameplay, The Undying earns ist full 5 stars without hesitation. In its core it is a FPS shooter so you will be shooting things to solve problems and progress. There are like 10 different weapons to use and you can also use magic to oblitarete the monsters or aid you in battle. Its gameplay feels almost like Bishock without the RPG elements. Its Story is awesome, even for the ones who do not know Clive Barker there are much to enjoy. And be aware this is a Horror Game. So you will be anxious most of the time as you explore a sinister mainson and traverse dream shaped lands to solve a mystery of a cursed family. The graphics are getting old but it is so consistent in its design that you will be wondering if there is a monster behind that tree than counting its polygones. If you want to enjoy a well written Horror Story go for it!!! PS : If you enjoy this game try Jericho from Clive Barker too.

This is one of my favorite games of all time, and it being here makes me quite aroused! An awesome combo of gun-wielding fps and awesome magic elements come alive here to defeat the dead! Muahahahahaha!!!

It's not scary, but it has good story, deep atmosphere and good gameplay.
