4 out of 10?? are you serious?? What a bullshit score. This game is great. Wish I could take back the view but at least I know to blacklist this website because 4 out of 10 would be very boring to play and the parkour and survival horror has not been merged together like this before, idiot.

...and nothing of value was lost.

I've noted somewhere on site (Joe's blog, maybe?) that I've been tracking this game for a while as a potential re-debut into the world of games not made in someone's bedroom but grew less enthused with each trailer released. Your review might as well have read ‘Dear Gary’ (don’t actually do this – people will talk) because it hits every last concern I’ve fostered. Dead Island was a game that I lost complete interest in less than halfway through because it was nothing but a rotating collection of doing the same thing over and over again – the more I saw of Dying Light, the more it reminded me of this. I figured that a kind of Dead Island/Mirrior’s Edge hybrid could have been quite cool, but I saw less and less of the latter as development went on. I’ll disagree with our new Cheetos chum and confess that this was a killer review.

Yeah, I grew to not care much for this one after a while, and this is coming from someone who liked Dead Island. I'm also usually not one to gripe about narrative, but I feel like there were too many missed opportunities. And don't even get me started on the "romantic" implications between Crane and Jade. It smacked too much of the typical forced love interest subplot that nearly every horror novelist shoehorns into their stories (something I plan to blog about soon), sans a random sex scene.

^^^^ If you didn't like the Staff Review, then you should post your own user review explaining why the game is really awesome. That would be more productive than calling someone an idiot for disagreeing with you.

JOSEPH VALENCIA was able to build this sig IN A CAVE…… WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!!

There is no pleasing the Cheetos :(

We try and we fail, again and again.

You exist because we allow it. And you will end because we demand it.

Also, if you're going to gripe, the score is probably the worst thing to whine about. Doing so basically says, "I didn't read the text and am freaking out over a number," even if that's not the case.

See, staff reviews need to rate on a scale of 7.9 to 10 or people get upset.
