Highly suggest this game to anyone who liked Eternal Darkness.  It plays like a cross between ED and Shenmue (has an ED-like mental health meter, and uses a lot of Shenmue-like quicktime events).  It's got a great story, great creepy atmosphere, and a genuinely innovative presentation.

Supposed to be a little on the short side, but the game is so choice that there's little doubt in my mind that it's worth your time and money.

Unless you hate fun, you should go out and buy this game now.

Patent Infringement! Nintendo should demand a GC port or threaten to sue.

I tried the demo, the ambience was good, and It's nice to see a new take on the adventure game genre. I didn't really care for the controls on the PC though, they felt a bit disconnected.

Well i played through this game yesterday and seriously WHAT THE HELL!?
The game was pretty good for the first 60% or so but it jsut totally went off the rails in teh second half. For a start, teh action sequences that seemed novel and interesting at first became the staple of the game. It became a pain in the arse especially when they would drag on for up to 5 or more minutes and your mind has turned to jelly. It's a shame these things took over because I was told that what was going on the screen behind the flashing lights was pretty cool to watch.

Oh yeah the story. oh god. I'm not even goign to bother with spoiler tags because the story isn't worth knowing. Basically it's something like the guy, I can't rememebr his name, he get's all these super powers and the oracle was the one who amde him murder the dude so he could find some girl so some orange guys could take over the world but then the guys ex girlfriend gets strapped toa  rolelrcoster and they die but some robots bring the guy back to life and then the detective girl meets the guy and falls in love with him for no reasona nd then they find the girl and tellt eh robots they cant have her even though he owes them his life and then they go to antartica because the homeless people took him there, turns out they're invisible and control the earth and there tehre is some bullshit super powers and at some point the detective chick and the guy have sex and by this point i was literally screaming at the tv and thinking about how necrophilia is encouraged by this shody arse game while being blinded by detective chicks niples all over the screen while the guy smiles and I think the black guy moved to florida or broke up with his girlfriend YOU GET TO DECIDE WHICH CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE! and then the reward for using dragon ball sed powers on soem soldiers is that winter ends prematurely and the world is saved. ys the entire world depended on wethor or not some girl would be captured by either robots or some mayan god. Oh please.

Not since Xenogears has a game gone so far off the rails.
