The Suffering

THE BAD:
.Short game
.Starts to become Predictable
.Cutscenes(If thats what you wanna call them)
.To much blood and to much cursing
.Not HARD at all

SUMMARY:
Let me lay it down to anyone who has heard of the game and may be thinking about purchasing/renting this game. Fist off its not a game for the weak at heart. This is one of the nasty's game I had ever played. Nearly ever minute or so you will be covered in more in more blood from your enemys. Cursing usually never bothers me just like blood and gore doesnt bother me. But this game used it so damn much it really just started getting on my nerv.

Ok first I highly suggest that if you really want to play this game either borrow it from a friend or rent it for $6 at Blockbuster. You can easily beat the game within three days while playing the game on and off.

Some high points about the game:
1.Its kinda just fun to go around and shoot up ugly looking creaters, sadly this gets boring after awhile.

2.Very dark setting, a lot of things should scare you in this game.(Atleast once)


The low points in the game:
1.Cutscenes sucked balls. The graphics stay the same throughout the whole game which for me is extremly annoying.

2.Not even remotely close to a Resident Evil/Silent Hill game. In this game they try to add depth into the character but I sure as hell did not buy it and nor would any other gamer. If you want a "GOOD" Horror game definetly check out other titles.

3.To much of the same damn thing. You go from one room shooting up these little green guys into another room where you shoot up more green guys. Gets very old and damn boring after awhile.

4.The story is horrible. I could hardly follow it and really I could not care to really try hard to follow it in the first place.


-Its obviouse that the makers of this game where gunning on people eager to play a game with tons of blood and gruesome scenes. They really did try to hard to make this game what it could had been. I sadly got suckered in by the cover of the box and the description on the back. If I were you I would not even spend money to rent this game, its way to short, no real story, and IMO the gameplay its boring after about 1 hour of the game. Oh and replay value, yeah, there is none! Take my advice and rent something else of the shelves, you will be bound to find something much better.

THE BAD:
Choppy cutscenes and character talking./ Short game./ Very little replay value./ Revolver ammo in showers?

SUMMARY:
This game pretty much has it all, Blood, Swearing, Tough badass character, extremeley gruesom monsters, eearie environments, and above all else, one hell of a freaky plot.

within minutes, you will be covered head to toe in blood and gore, and will hear at least 10 F words. Death comes in a very creative fashion in this game, some guys die by lacerations of metal blades by a psychotic doctor who appears in only TV screens shown from cameras set around the prison, and some guys die from getting long swords rammed down the top of their skull all the way to their gut.

The theme is quite simple, youre Torque, a tough badass who is accused of murdering his family but cannot seem to remember a damn thing about it. Withing the first 10 minutes of being thrown in prison on an isolated island, freaky events start happening. first an earthquake, then one by one, your fellow inmates disappear. now its up to you to escape! you meet many other inmates on the island, also trying to defend themselves. this is where its up to you on whether you want to kill them or let them live, your actions decide the final ending.

The atmosphere is as real and as eerie as you can possibly get. freaky noises in the background send chills throughout your body, and not to mention, the majority of the prison is dark...very dark.

The characters seem like what you expect out of inmates on death row, or at least I think. theyre self centered, cocky SOBs. You meet many of them along your horrific journey and they all have something different to say. If you get some inmates to follow you and they run into other inmates they dont like, they will start fighting and its usually up to you who you want to win that fight, simply by blowing the others head off. Or of course you can sit back and watch the gunfight between the two. As well in this game, besides meeting single characters, you can meet your average Prison gangs, like mexicans and blacks etc...

The cutscenes are what really brings this game to its knees, for example, when someones talking, their mouth does not match what theyre saying whatsoever, and their movements are very choppy and unreal.

This game is also quite short, it definately makes due for a rental, unless you plan on replaying this game over and over.

Lastly, why in the world would there be Revolver ammo in prison showers.....
