    bad use of the unreal3 engine

    This game first off looks really interesting in a strange way. Its dark, it looks competent, but its when you actually get the controller and start playing when the disappointment settles in. This game is lack luster and a disappointment in many levels. The story is a strange and rather an excuse for a purpose to play than a legitimate story. You are part of a paranormal task force that has the new task of going to these ruins in the desert that have immense amount of paranormal activity. This quickly boils down to simply going from spot to spot shooting lack luster weapons with terrible sound design. The guns sound very weak. The trickling of plot through the game merely evaporates in lack of interest.  
    This game merely only succeeds to some extent on a graphical level, but even then it just looks fake as does the rest of the game.

      Clive Barker’s is the second game that has been developed from an idea from the man who is known for his horror films such as Hell raiser. This gives the game a promising start as Barkers horror Stories are well written and intriguing the question is does this translate well into a videogame. The game takes place through 5 different times from modern day to the crusaders as god’s first creation the Firstborn who is trying to destroy everything that has been created. The squad have been tasked...
