You say that as if Saw ISN'T disgusting torture porn with no positive merits and if A Nightmare of Elm Street and Friday the 13th AREN'T classics. Strange.

Almost done with the game...and seriously i think this game is good 3/5
Very easy achievements
Edit: One thing that was hard to figure out was...the traps that player sets up. Hold L Trigger, use R bumper to select the trap (explosive,gas,stun) finally hit the R Trigger.

Ryan's laughter was great, it really gave the quick look some needed spice! It looks like the game could be a 3/5, for me. Nothing that I saw really grossed me out, not even sticking his hand down a toilet of used needles.

You say that as if you didn't watch the first movie (or any of the subsequent ones for that matter) and that you don't realize how far away the series has strayed from its original roots as a psychological thriller.  weird.

I'm somewhat scared to watch this. Not because it's a horror game, but because the movies are fucking atrocious.

Ugh. I am NOT a horror movie person, but horror games don't usually bother me. Still, the toilet full of syringes made me shiver.

I couldn't stop laughing when Ryan was laughing at the wife dying. The Saw movies may be gruesome but as a horror fan, they make me laugh at how ridiculous the traps can be.

I personally wouldn't call Saw a horror movie, more like torture porn or something. A good horror movie is something like Drag Me To Hell to mention something recent. Saw and Hostle, not so much. Though I would call Hostle a horror movie since in the beginning it has a pretty good tention but later on just goes of the rail into torture porn territory.

The original SAW was actually pretty good. The sequels were pretty atrocious, however the game premise is decent if it was done as a survival horror game with moral choices. Make the character based around YOU, with a series of questions where you answer to define the character and change the gameplay; mix of what Heavy Rain is supposed to be and well "Torture Porn" as people put it. If the story can be shown different ways to different people it would be a  great way to try to spruce up survival horror.
 
Game looks like maybe a rental or a bargain bin pick up, I don't rent so when i see it at 20-30 bucks and have nothing to play i'll pick it up.

Ok, this is the QL I've been waiting for. I don't like the movies but the game seems interesting for some reason.
 
Well, this game seems bad. I don't know if it should be more game-y or less game-y. Why won't the game let you smash the damn toliet with the bat? If the game had stuff like that in it I think it might be better. The combat seems terrible as well and those shotgun traps annoyed me after 15 minutes of watching the game.

I like the fact that it has that Manhunt vibe, but Manhunt is vastly superior.  This might qualify as one of the best movie games, however technical that may be.

I completely agree with Vinny. I love old school horror movies, but i'm not at all into the whole torture porn movie genre.

The only Saw movie I've seen is the first one, and I hated it. I just found it boring and stupid. That being said, I think the concept could work as a game. This game, unfortunately, doesn't seem like anything special, but I'd love to see a game where you played as someone like Jigsaw and created death traps. I mean, something like a game where you could create create puzzles, upload them online, and then have people download and try to solve them.
