EU copy played on a PlayStation 3 Super Slim.

Is this the kind of game people were complaining about a decade ago where they were super linear, 6 hours long and barely had side content? I cant say I didn't enjoy myself but there was too much reliance on the sixaxis feature and altering control schemes to be a solid effort. Felt like I was playing a rougher Hellblade the entire time but I guess wiping out armies by the hundreds in the endgame was kinda fun.

The villains were pretty enjoyable too - Andy Serkis was a joy to watch as the main bad guy and the others were so over the top it just made their scenes entertaining. Although it was a shame they didn't have a woman of Japanese descent play the main character but I guess standards were different back then for that sort of thing.

If you manage to find this for a couple bucks and have a few afternoons to spare it's alright time, just nothign groundbreaking by today's standards but it's at least fairly coherent and executes it's ideas.
