Gamestyle

A real mess of a game that brought back memories of another poor effort, which by chance happened to be published by Midway as well. An unfortunate pattern perhaps, I've enjoyed some releases from that publisher but all on the last generation. Clearly they've yet to come to terms with the new formats on the market.

With reviews such as this, when you are confronted by what is a poor game, it is difficult to keep your perspective. It would be all too easy to rant and rave about what a complete pile of pooh the final product is, and how it would be better as a drinks coaster. Again, all too easy to fall into this trap and not informative to readers about WHY it is so BAD and if there are any saving graces.

In the end I traded in BlackSite for next to nothing towards Lost Odyssey Xbox 360, which is a JRPG which I've been meaning to check out for ages, but wanted to wait until the guaranteed price drop arrived. Thank goodness this game arrived in Europe, I'm impressed so far by what I've seen. Also not having to review the game means I can take it at my own pace! That means very slow for a change!
