A great game with brilliant humor. Just a bit too short.

I love this sort of story, I played the trial on 360 and decided that I had to get it. It just happened to be cheaper on PS3.

One great thing about this game is the use of your customised character within the 'comic strip' sequences in between parts of the game. The story is completely barmy as I'd come to expect from things like this but it is funnier to anyone who has a knowledge of non-video game RPG's like D&D.

If you grew up with games that used d20's like I did then you will definately find this funny, even if you havn't there are enough jokes in there to keep everyone amused. The controls and the gameplay do not break boundries but with a game like this it is more about the story than the game mechanics.

Graphics are to be expected of a cel shaded game like this and everything about the game is average - except the story. Unfortunately the other problem with it is length. I understand that this is only part 1 but even for that it seems a little bit short, especially for the price.

In conclusion, it is alright by all accounts however, the thing that makes this game better is the story.
