    @lawlerballer: So are you saying Ryan wasn't honest?

    Got it for the PC and got no texture problems. Runs smooth as silk or whatever.
     
    Id give it 3.5/5 - The art and atmosphere is fantastic. I, like many others, love the idea of Alice fighting her batshit crazy mind. 
    The jumping feels a bit stiff at times, but Ive gotten used to it. What drags the game down is the focus mechanic when fighting certain enemies that you gotta block attacks and whatnot from. It removes the otherwise rather fluid movements in combat. Makes the whole thing feel too clumsy.
     
    If the game nailed the combat and added more variation in fights and puzzles/platforming this would be one hell of a game.

    I beat the game two days ago. it is really great game. I still like single play with a good story. Alice has them all. total length of gameplay is very satisfied. it took me 19 hours. in these days, 19hours for single play is really long. story, characters, 2D games, mini puzzle are all nicely done.

    I'm 2-3 hours in and i'm having such a blast. Really fun game, and the art direction and environments are stunning

    it should have been a Zelda clone instead of a mario+DMC hybrid.

    The things I could have done with that umbrella!
