The scariest part that made me stop playing by fabio 09/15/2011, 6:43am PDT
Was the thought of having to do the asteroid shooting mini-game over again.


The original concept meeting for this game must have had "The Thing???" circled in the center of the whiteboard then they just tacked on focus grouped elements from there. Not one single gameplay mechanic is conductive to being scared, not the stasis gun or zero-g or the gravity gun. It feels like they must have gotten the same clueless guy who worked on F.E.A.R and figured bullet time was the ticket.


The visceral stomping was the only fun to be had.
