    this game is good but don't play it if you're not a Patient person
    this game is kinda hard (not that hard) but it's a clear 8.0 for me
    the graphics is sh*t but its still a bada$$ game totaly worth 1200 points
    and for those guys who plays game for its graphics remember this
    "whoever plays a game for its graphics its like reading comic porn for the story!"(if you do want comic porn story google palcomix 3.0)
    in any case this game is one of ubisoft gems but its short, took me 2 days to finish

    @hella_epic - sorry big guy, it just happened to be the one score that made me change to a different gaming site after frequenting this one for the past 6 years. I was a little sore that I hadn't done it earlier.

    Tom McShea just shouldn't do video reviews. He's hard to listen to. Emphasises words that shouldn't be and vice versa, and sounds awkward even though he's not on camera.

    Well, I'm sold on this. I think I might get this on PS3 though. On a side note, this game just reminded me of The Road a little bit.

    Theres still hope in the videogame industry. This game at least shows some originality.

    not sure i like the idea of not having any reties and having to redue the last half hour of game play

    @Lord Norr

    If, say, you held your gun at me, and that I was a desperate scavenger, just trying to survive. If you lowered your gun, and still posed yourself as a threat, I'd sure as hell try my chances on you. What left do I have to lose anyways? Absolutely nothing; the world is gone and we're reduced to survival instincts. Is this bad AI? No, it's designed like this on purpose. It still surprise me that this needs to be explained.

    With games like Gears of war 3 or Mass effect 3, reviewers from all over the globe start masturbating over how amazing it is, giving it 9.5 or 98% when I thought they were crap. But games like this seem to divide the community. As mentioned, IGN gave this a terrible score and I have to say, the faults mentioned in the video are all valid. Stupid enemies to see you have a gun drawn and fall back, but soon as you holster it, they charge at you. That on its own would ruin the game for me.
    I like how its split the reviewers though, rather than a blanket OMFGWOW.

    This game looks interesting and new, but I get so bored by the lack of a color palette. Each minute I look at it I want to play it less. There are ways to get a dystopian feel without having everything be gray.

    @bahldark
    Different people have different opinions. I don't think Tom would argue that this game IS an 8 and that his score is fact. He acknowledges the obvious flaws this game has but he enjoyed the game in spite of them.

    See 4:48 . The developers even said they were trying to create a game that players would remember.

    Also the metacritic critic score is a 7.3 and the user score is 8.6, so obviously a lot of people are enjoying it despite the technical issues.
