Not my kind of game at all, but I still had a lot of fun playing it, and glad I did.

I usually don't like games where you are basically just running forward and shooting, but somehow I really liked this one. They broke up the high-speed parts with some slow quiet moments to explore and I appreciated that.

I also usually don't like big boss fights, but they were pretty cool in this game.

I must admit that after dying like 50 times towards the end, I did lower the difficulty from normal to casual and I really appreciate they let you do that on the fly instead of having to restart over at the beginning.

A couple complaints were that the character moved a little stiff and would get stuck on the environment a little too easily.

I also don't remember anything about the story (except the kind of graphically shocking ending) or what was going on, but much like other offering from the same developers that seems to be par for the course.

In Summary: Worth the $20 I picked this up for.
