Great Game! Don't miss it now that the 2nd one is out.
For those of you thinking to skip this first one if you never played it, you really should consider to play this too. For a 3 year old game it's still very fresh and fun to play.
I was happy to be able to spend so much time with my character in this first game, and was cool that the same character and choices carried over to the second game.
The story is really what sucks me into this game. I really enjoyed the plot and atmosphere, and had fun trying out different options to situations. Even the parts they removed for the second game, like the boring driving and inventory management, were not too bad.
In Summary - Even now the 2nd one is out, you should give this one a try too especially if you pick up the platinum hits version like I did that included the DLC.
