Utterly compelling, utterly absorbing. Apart from one or two moments of being over-the-top Riddick is THE Xbox title to own. Graphics are the best I have seen on the XBox to date and sets a standard which other FPS style games really need to strive to. I completed Doom 3 prior to Riddick and I have to say these boys could teach iD a trick or two when it comes to pacing and atmosphere. Sound is incredible all the way through, Vin Deisal's personal attention to this title shines through. I never really cared much for the actor till I played this title. Now I really am looking forward to seeing Pitch Black and The Chronicles of Riddick Movies. Top marks go to the engine crafting, storyline and acting. A tour-de-force that shows the rest of the industry how it's done with style. Fantastic, bring the sequals on!
