![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The facial animations create realistic emotions to make a strong connection with the characters. The game is very character-driven, & with good reason-the two main characters are incredibly believable. | STORY | The strongest point of the game. My main issue is the lack of open-exploring: you can only really jump where the designers want you to, which helps a lot but makes the levels a little linear and takes the fun out of exploring the beautifully designed maps. The camera is a little annoying sometimes but is rarely a hindrance. The gameplay paces itself & you never find yourself doing the same thing twice-there's always something new tossed in it never gets repetitive. Enslaved introduces a lot of new, solid mechanics with plenty of fresh ideas to add to the normal climbing action-adventure engine: the Cloud is awesome, & the tag-team system between the two main characters works very well (not like you, Resident Evil 5!) Coupled with creative weapon designs, superior animations, & great sound effects, the combat is a blast. Although the basic gameplay engine isn't the most original, the way it's implemented is innovative & fantastic. Gameplay - 8/10 | Story - 9/10 | Graphics - 10/10 | Sound - 10/10 | Replay Value - 7/10 | Overall - 8.8/10 | GAMEPLAY | Not too easy, not too hard. Short but memorable journey packed with good times The only downfall with this game is it does get repetitive, also it lacks in the 'action' department a 'M' rating would have made this title a huge success I just crave a good amount of blood in games. Don't worry the girl almost looks after herself so no big problem with her keeping up either. Give it a try if you want something you have had before, and for an all original experience at the same time. Their is also much strategy and problem solving to be had within this title. This game takes from so many good games and puts the pieces in place almost perfectly, starting you off with an 'Uncharted' feel it quickly turns into 'God of War' with its quick fighting and attacks that can be progressed, and then transgresses to a 'Final Fantasy 13' linear approach. As soon as I popped the disk in, entertainment enveloped me. The main reason I purchased it was because I didn't want to spend a lot of money and I needed something new to play. This game came truly as a surprise to me. ![]()
