I don't regret buying it for .99 but I wasn't interested in finishing it. And Limbo is a great game, there's a lot worse that could be said about a game. It's okay. It's 3/5. Worth a dollar. Not worth the full price.
I want to play this game. It looks awesome and really creative. But I cannot stand this art style. Why does everything have to look wrong? Can't things just be in the correct proportions? I'm giving this a 4 because that's the most benefit of the doubt I can give (and the other reviews have nothing but love so I don't think I'm giving any undue praise). I just really, really hate the way this looks. It's disturbing.
The game looks awesome. I can't leave a more detailed review because every time I've tried to play it, it crashes my whole PC and I need to restart it. (This happens when I die and it does the rewind animation thing.) When I start it again, it asks if it should run in Safe Mode, which seems to have deleted my save file. I don't think I'll be trying to play it anymore.
I don't know what these other reviewers are talking about. I played this when it came out. I don't want to exaggerate, so I'll just say that it was, in a word, mediocre. Painfully so. I loved Quake 2 and was utterly disappointed by this. The campaign was over so quickly that it felt like a demo. The gameplay has nothing interesting. The graphics are not as good as Doom 3 (I think it uses the same engine, can't be arsed to look it up).
I grew up on Carmageddon 2: Carpocalypse Now. This game took a giant dump on my childhood. I don't know a word that means the opposite of fun, but whatever it is, this is what this game seems deliberately designed to do. This game hates you, and wants you to know it. And you want to convince yourself that maybe you're just missing something, that the game is actually good but you're doing it wrong, and you are, because you're still playing it. I hate this goddamn game and I refuse to try imagining what it looked like before it was "fixed" and renamed from Carmageddon: Reincarnation. Goddammit I hate that I live in a world where this was created, let alone made a profit.
This price is an insult. Make haste and remove these games from this here website. Don't get me wrong, Aladdin is great - fun memories of Agrabah. I imagine it's the same for Lion King. But miss me with that bull's shirt.
I love this game. I got it a couple of years after it came out (in a bargain bin deal along with FarCry 1 & 2 for the equivalent of about 8 USD) and I was mesmerised. I loved everything about it, especially having both read and watched The Bourne Identity on which the game's comic was based, but goes in a totally different direction from the amnesia beginning. In retrospect however, it's not that great. It's quite short for one thing. The gameplay isn't that good, and the graphics are a bit inconsistent. To be honest it isn't worth its full price. Having said that, you should buy it and play it. It's great, honestly. Plus: the multiplayer with bots is a hidden gem that took me too long to try.
