So scary... yet so addicting..! this game is freaky. addicts around every corner, waiting to punce on you; soft, spooky music in the background; this game is ubelievably suspenseful, and not for the faint of heart. But it's unbelievably fun and will leave you very satisfied with the great storyline, great graphics, and intense melee action. The voice acting seems a little mediocre at times but it doesnt really effect the experience. Definatly a good choice.
Very good Great atmospheric game. Taking the role of an FBI agent on the hunt for a serial killer known as 'Match Maker', you find yourself operating alone soon enough when you are framed for the murder of 2 fellow agents. The game is a shooter but also combines some basic investigation and gathering of forensic evidence, which is mostly pretty easy and won't slow you down much. One problem with the game is the situation you find yourself in, this character is supposedly a good guy who wants to protect people and stop murders, yet he is quite happy to smash homeless peoples heads in with shovels and pipes, and he does it with sadistic pleasure too. A bit bizarre. All in all though a good game, and worth a look at.
Very scary and heart-pounding I played this game on a Japanese system and it gave me no trouble. This particular game is very thrilling because you are finding a killer and the lights go off, causing you to go through this giant building chasing druggies and killers--or at least they're chasing you. You can use pipes, boards, hammers, axes, or almost anything you can find to protect yourself. There are times when you see a dark figure run past the screen in the distance or you go into a view where it shows exactly what the killer did. Very psychological and dark, this will keep you thinking next time you go down a dark hallway or into a basement.
