    masterbrief's Damnation (PlayStation 3) review

    Awful

    While not an unplayable game, it certainly suffers from large amounts of bugs and issues. The story is pretty bland and forgettable, same goes for the characters. The combat and shooting is not fun at all, not to mention not very effective or accurate. The platforming and climbing is decent and works when you can actually get in the position to do it. Your character moves very quickly and sloppily making it a hassle to get into the right position that often times requires specific accuracy which is almost unreal for how the game controls and will most likely see you jumping off a cliff. The worst offense is the checkpoints. When the game does decide to give them to you they are few and far between. Get used to restart a level a few times before moving on to an eventual checkpoint once you finish all the 'arena' segments that comprise the levels. All in all it is an interesting idea of an alternate timeline with some cool steampunk stuff that never came close to coming together.

      Damned from the moment I touched it. 0

           Every now and then a game gets released that is an obvious beta. It has issues like having many glitches and having awful gameplay and graphics. I’m talking about this because, clearly, Damnation is one of those games. Trying to pin itself as a combination of Gears of War and Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, this game manages to not live up to either game, nor any other game that rips off of them.    Damnation takes place in an steam punk setting where the Civil War went on another twenty years....
