3 Cracked Open Skulls out of 5
Where to begin. Well maybe with some good news. Saw is actually a decent game. There it has been said. Unlike most other film based video games, this one pulls through and doesn't entirely disappoint. The storyline takes place in an insane asylum and it is your job to make it through all of Jigsaws puzzles and come out alive. The way the game throws enemies into the playing field is that you have a key that was surgically placed in your body, and all you enemies were told that the key inside you is the way out. Unfortunately this is where the problems emerge. As if fighting off people that want to kill you isn't bad enough, they thrown in a horrible fighting structure making it almost impossible to move and attack you opponent. Not to mention constantly getting your head blown off by traps that you were trying to disarm, but just couldn't get that "disarm" icon to appear on the screen. Other that that though this game is a success. The art and graphics of the game were done very well and all the different puzzles in the game keep you thinking. I may not suggest buying this game seeing as it has no replay value at all. But it is a game that you will enjoy renting over a weekend and will only take roughly 15 hours to complete.
