To short even by Budge title standards
Learning Curve: 25 Minutes
Score: 2 out of 10
Now I'll admit when Lost first made it's tv debut back in 2004 I originally wanted to see it but because of jobs and other things going on I was never able to see it and after missing 2 plus seasons I figured I wouldn't watch it, why watch something you never saw the start of right? Well G4 announced they were going to get lost this September so I will have my chance to see the show I wanted to before. Even more I heard they released a game named Lost: Via Domus so I thought "Great I'll play a game about the show and than I'll watch the show and see all the great stuff I missed." I got the PS3 edition of the game and after having a mind blowing 2 minute install time the game started and it seemed great from what I saw, than the greatness ended and what was left made me feel so used it isn't even remotely funny. The only nice thing about this game was the visuals of the island which is perfect. But everything else seems to be sub par but than again I guess that's what I get when I buy a budget title, yes I paid the full $29.99 for this bomb. I won't get into the story I don't want to spoil it but it revolved around a member of the flight as he struggles to regain his memory. So I played this game and about 5 hours after I started it was over! that's right this game was over, I've played a lot of budge titles but they normally last longer than 5 hours. I was thinking "Boy the show must suck if the game only lasted 5 hours." So I was doing some research prior to posting this review and come to find out the person you play wasn't even on the tv show, that's right they plopped someone down in this game and that's it. Now I feel riped off they not only made a short game but now I found out that the person I played as wasn't even on the TV show! With that out of the way now onto the rest of the review, as I stated before the only thing impressive was the way they made the island look, it looked awesome the rest sucked the people moved in a robotic fashion, the audio was off their lips were moving but nothing was coming out and the way you played the game just felt antique. it wasn't enjoyable. The storyline was pretty good for what it was I guess. and to me the controls just seemed to have a rushed feeling. So over all this game gets a 2 out of 10 because it let me down before I played it, while I played it and after I got done with it. If your a Die hard Lost fan you'll like this but to every other gamer I suggest you just let this one stay lost.
