I liked it a lot. When I was playing it, I repeatedly felt like it was the best game ever. I guess that, in that regard, it was a triumph.
Then, I thought about it. I realized I spent a lot of time just moving along a guided path with no ability to fail. The excitement was manufactured by set pieces that didn't really require skill.
My favorite part, the combat, was perfected in this hand and cut back so much compared to the other games. I tried to pace myself and only play a little each day. Maybe an hour or two. I would go forever without any real action!
Not bad at all, but I guess my "next gen hardware" expectations were too high.
Plus, I didn't really like Sam.
