Just finished it last night. Hell of a unique game with a unique, well-told story. Definitely glad I played it, and I give the developers props for doing something new and fairly bold. Game is also visually quite stunning.

Finially get to see what this game can really do on the X

I’m curious if all three people interested in this game on XBox will buy it.

I'm curious if you can stop downplaying everything that isn't PlayStation centric all the time?

No chance, his insecurity levels keep rising every week.

Will probably be very similar with higher resolutions. Based on the PC version there wasn't much of an upgrade outside of a few effects settings.

Maybe dynamic 4K in graphics mode. I would hope the performance mode actually achieves a locked 60 fps at 1080p or higher.

I don't know which mode I'll prefer. Probably graphics unless the 60fps mode really adds something, Dillion.

The game has great atmosphere, sound, writing, voice acting, and it is extremely well-polished. That being said, I didn't enjoy it very much. Character moves too slowly, and the gameplay was slow and tedious. It's definitely not for everyone.

I'm sure a ton of people enjoyed this game, so maybe it does deserve the review scores it gets, but damn, the gameplay just wasn't there. It really raises the question; does a well-polished, visually stunning game deserve a good review score if it's gameplay is mediocre? How important is that to a game's score?
