Totally unimpressed with this game. One of the worst PS3 games I played. As others have stated you spend more of your time healing your team than you do fighting. Actually you can watch you team during parts of the game and they'll be shooting off in different directions or facing the wall. Blew chunks is an understatment.

Too much going on to have any fun

Although I haven't finished it yet, I'm well into the game (no idea how close to the end, but with some exceptions PS3 games tend to be on the short side) and have been through several sections when your magical abilities come into play.

They ruin the game, frankly. It's a great idea - each member of the team has unique weapons and magic. It ruins the game for one simple reason - in almost every situation where you'd like to make use of magic (basically, every fight), things are happening so fast you don't have time to switch characters and cast. Also, most of the time half of them are knocked out before you even have the chance. With one character's arm-mounted minigun, which should be a butt-kicking weapon, it takes 700,000 rounds to kill an enemy. And that's just the non-bosses. Playing on easy.

It does look good. Some complain the surroundings are a bit repetitive, but you are in a desolate ruin, not some nearly pristine relic site like in a Tomb Raider game, so to me it fits. The enemies look good and are genuinely mean, and the way a swarm of flies appears and whisks their corpses away was a pleasant surprise. It's great for fans of the gore factor, too.

If this had teammates that don't die at the drop of a hat, gave you a little more health to work with (you die a lot, and die, and die, and die, again and again and ag...), and paused when you bring up the character select, it would be a much better game. Maybe it would even be better without the magic, as a straight ahead shooter. In any case, it simply fails to deliver on its concept.

I'll definitely finish it (or try to), because it certainly does have its good points, but won't be keeping it. The team system is badly flawed and what magic they do have isn't all that fun to use anyway. Taken simply as a shooter, there's nothing special about it. I'd say rent or buy on the cheap.

good

I have been playing video games for about 20 years and can honestly say this is probable the second first person shooter I have really gotten into. I think the concept is great you die very early in the game only to realize your soul can enter your teams bodies and control them. Each charater has different abilites though your probable going to use some characters more then others. There are certain enemies that only have a weakness in there backs, so its kind of cool to jump back and forth between guys to be in range.
While other people seemed to dislike the whole reviving your guys, I kind of liked it, ultimatley it makes it so that you can never die if you keep guys alive. There were many times in the game, were I would be running to revive a guy before I got killed, only to get killed just as I revived the guy and had to do it again. I could see how it could annoy people but I actually enjoyed it.
I thought the story and graphics were very good. Theres an overall creepy feel to the game and I did like that each character has different abilites. One can astral project, one can move objects, one can summom a spirt to attack your enemy. I would definantly understand what they do before really getting into the game. I played about 75% of the game before I realized how useful some were and made things way to hard to the point were I wasn't having as much fun as I could have.
At the same time I felt this game could have been better then it was and could see a Jericho 2 being outstanding. For the most part you will probable use only a couple of characters.

*I also figured I would mentioned one part in the game that will make you pull your hair out. Don't remember the level but at one part enemies just keep coming and coming. I read online that you just have to keep killing them but I played it for 2 hours wanting to bash my head in and didn't clear it. But an really simple way to clear this is use delgado and jump down to the gate and use your dragon thingy R1 special move and you will attach a guy on the other side and door will open. Your going to thank me for that.
