I am quite impressed & pleased with this game. Having just played the 2nd installment of the series, I can very truthfully say that I enjoyed this newest game the most.
The cutscenes were beautiful, & excellently done. Very easily the best I've ever seen in a computer game. They reminded me of a movie. The game itself was gorgeous, too.
I actually like that the objects were picked up whole rather than in pieces, as it began to get tedious toward the end of The Time Paradox. This new feature also added to the challenge, as you didn't know what location contained what object. This game was certainly not easy, & not short. I played with my sister & mother, & we got through without the walkthrough, but the game took about 3 hours to complete. I would estimate 6 hours at least if I was playing alone (provided I didn't take a peek at the walkthrough. )
The extras I could do without, but the game itself definately warrants the price. Great sites with great prices tend to make us spoiled, though! And it was most certainly more than generous of GH to allow the Funpass Members access to this game at no extra cost. 2 thumbs up for that.
Not one problem except for the very common crash after the name was entered. No more problems with that after GH quickly patched it up.
And I was quite surprised with the story. It took a turn at the end that I truly wasn't expecting. I recommend this game (or at least a try) to every one. I can't wait for the next one. Kudos, GH, for upping the bar with this one.
