Giving this game a 4 is pure idiocy.Is it buggy? Yup. Do the servers suck and come up and down intermittently? Yup. Are IllFonic and Gun Media tiny development studios? Yup. Should it be graded on a different curve of expectations to something massive like a Naughty Dog game? Yup. Is it getting patched and worked on? Yup.Has it gotten much better already since release? Yup. Is it packed full of players? Yup.Is it a blast to play with friends? Yup. Does it capture the Friday the 13th feeling of terror and tension? Yup.Are the kills grotesque and reminiscent of the movies? Yup. Here's my review:Do you like Friday the 13th?Have you always dreamed of playing as Jason Voorhees and killing counsellors?Have you always dreamed of running around famous locales from the films like Camp Crystal Lake?Have you always dreamed of going toe-to-toe with the man behind the mask?Do you love the original Harry Manfredini musical score from the films?Do you love Tom Savini's awesome special fx and inventive kills?Do you love Kane Hodder as Jason?Do you think GameSpot reviews games intentionally low now as a way to get attention?Are reviews bullshit anyway?If you answered Yup to the majority of these questions, do yourself a favour and ignore GameSpot's idiotic, click-bait review of 4.
The surroundings going up and down based on cursor position is really annoying. I think a better solution might have just been making those elements transparent while hovered over instead. Less distracting anyway.
