Excellent review! Here's a sentence that stuck out at me:

I cry every time I read a good review of this game, simply because I know I'll probably never get to play it. I'm not an Xbox or PC fan, so unless it gets ported to PS3 or MAC, I'm sunk.

Man, with how awesome you make this game sound, I'm surprised you didn't give it a 10. Not that that means much.

JV: I knew that sentence didn't read that well. Feel free to edit it.

You didn't make up a word. You're right: "hoard" means to stash, like how you used it in that example.

The witch launches at you, pins you to the ground, then claws you to death at such a rate it's practically impossible for someone to save you in time.

Yep. That's definitely freaky. I wonder what playing this game must be like in the middle of the night with the lights off and all that ambient creepy noise. Talk about immersive. And I only just watched those videos.

I was fooling around on expert on the demo and shined the flashlight on the witch for the hell of it. The game ended no more than five seconds later.

Yeah. I was looking at those videos Lewis linked to and found one linked to them which has a witch confrontation in a more lit area.

Most wanted game that I can't play. So so so so so sad. I'll have to hold out for a PS3 release. Or go over to Phasma's house, he'll understand.

For Black Friday this game is only $19.95 on Amazon. I'd say it's worth it!

I've poured more time into this than anything else for ages. It's worth it, whatever the price (within reason).

I've been holding it off for some time because I wanted to try Crysis Warhead's multiplayer first and I know once I start L4D I won't stop. I was about to start yesterday but for some reason busted out Serious Sam instead. Finally I broke down and played it last last night.
