Yeah so this game showed up for about £3.50 this week (dunno about the dollars) on Steam. I was curious to try it even though I had heard mixed things but as usual, Metaritic swayed me. I loaded it up and chose the "normal" difficulty setting, boy was this a mistake. Maybe I am so used to the Call Of Duty's and Halo's of the world but this game is brutal and I found out the hard way. After dying 4-5 times on the first mission, due mostly to the apparent uselessness of that games pistol, I quit out to the main menu and changed the difficulty to "novice". I found this to be a little more comfortable but I still felt as though I had scraped my way through.
I will continue to play this game but will have to wait and see if the gameplay clicks or the story sucks me in. So far so hmmmmmmmmm
