It's such a quirky game, very much in line with the source material it's clearly based on, but the actual play mechanics is bugging the crap out of me. I'm not going into detail about it, since I might do a review, but, this game does some things right, but it also does a bunch of things wrong. I could actually do a review of it now, because I have a feeling things won't change dramatically over the course of the game's story, but I actually want to complete the whole thing before making any final judgement. Shame, too, because this could have been a great steal at $20.

Here's a very early cutscene from the game, right as Agent York arrives in town:

	Halon - June 06, 2010 (08:34 PM) I didn't know this game was almost decent. From what I hear it's The Room of videogames. Any game with a bar named "The Galaxy of Terror" is a win in my book.
	dementedhut - June 07, 2010 (07:19 AM) It's only a reference in name, though. When you go inside, it's just a normal bar. No worms. >_>

	dementedhut - June 07, 2010 (10:22 AM) I'm... finding it hard to believe there's a wrong way to play this game. Unless it somehow improves on the Hard difficulty setting.
	dementedhut - June 07, 2010 (12:55 PM) Argh! I just ran into another problem! The ghosts/zombies sometimes glitch and fall under the floor when they try to flash-step. >_<;;; Must.... resist urge to quit.... Must complete game!
	zippdementia - June 07, 2010 (03:21 PM) I couldn't even get through the cinematic. I haven't heard voice acting that bad in a while.
