We both loved that same scene, and I think we both had the same precise problem with the door. I laugh at it now: a guy is in a room, people are breaking in and intent on killing him, so he heads to the side room and carefully unlocks the door... then re-locks it! The things I was shouting at my TV at that point aren't fit for repeating. Yet I chuckle at it now. I did love the game's atmosphere, though. Those early moments were truly chilling. The later stuff felt much more gamey.

"What if everything you see is more than what you see--the person next to you is a warrior and the space that appears empty is a secret door to another world? What if something appears that shouldn't? You either dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than you think. Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world

Ha, yeah. I was doing some serious cursing there.

And yup, the gamey parts later on seemed far less polished.

Yet another game I don't have to worry about buying, I suppose.
If at first you don't succeed, give up. Don't make a damn fool of yourself.
