Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD

The screenshots showed first-person views, so I thought this was a first-person shooter. Nope -- it's third-person from the very beginning. I do not even feel like finishing the tutorial, because the controls cannot be set up to my liking.

This game is not what it's made out to be. A fabolous and great animated cutscene at the beginning of the game shows a game which could have been great, but ultimately lost the ball. What starts as a promising action-adventure and fps hybrid shows to have plenty of under-developed mechanics, like stealth that doesn't work and boring gameplay. It's mission design is if charming, very repetitive. Many of the boss-encounters are near unbeatable and very rage-inducing. This game unfortunately also has a lot of homophobia in it, with enemies calling you "sissy" non-stop, it also has one particularly agregious scene early on which just shook me. A good-at-first but-bad-later-on-and-very-stretched story with atrocious 'Big Lebowski'-addicted dialogue ruins one of the only interesting aspects of this game.
