I really wanted to like that game. It’s been in my library for eight years, and every time I go back to it, something goes wrong… I guess I finally have to accept that this game is not for me. It’s not bad, it’s not

Its not worth your time. The same studio that made the bizarre and awful Batman Arkham Blackgate, comes this tech demo stretched into a game that is lacking basic features for its genre. For a pc port there isn't any
