Just started playing this on PS3. Looks & plays a bit like Max Payne but with horror elements in the game. Only been playing for an hour or so but really impressed so far.

If you like it, you should check out the comic (no, not the promotional one they've been releasing around the game) that came out about 10 years ago, upon which it's largely based.
I remember it being pretty good - should be able to find lots of back issues in dc++ and/or soulseek.
The game looks ok...very fluid, just not really my type of game personally, I prefer that kinda stuff on pc, and by the look of it, it'll be a while before I can run something like that.
Good call on the ps3 though, damn finest system out right now.

Yeah i was thinking of checking out the comic. You can unlock the comics in the game by various acheivements which i've done but when you view them theres no zoom facility so you can't read the dialogue , pretty pointless really......
Just started to play this one myself. Have it for the 360. So far its pretty good.

No flaming from me....i'm not a fanboy of any system. I have pretty much all of them except for the PS3.

I can't wait to pick this one up, for the 360 of course. ;)
Not because I'm a fanboy... I just read reviews.
"The PlayStation 3 version is virtually identical to the 360, other than the occasional aliasing issues and sporadic slowdown."

really enjoyed this game but don t know if any one else agrees but this game was a bit of a disapointment, woefully short, crap end game sequence, crap online gaming as well..... might just be the fact theres not a lot out on the PS3 at the moment.

For me it just fell short of my expectations, I was expecting something on par with Butcher Bay and was let down.
