Fun to play. Good storyline. Puts you into the game.

This is a decent game for the money its like you are your own csi case

Before you pickup this game I would say do a bit of research on the gameplay this game is not for the action lover but more for the person who loves an interesting story and solving puzzles. The combat in this game and action is nearly non existent but does that mean it is a bad game nope. I found this game to be more of a modern take on the classic point and click adventures. If you are a fan of heavy rain and detective game I say this is a game for you. If you are a fan of high octane 3rd person action games then you may want to pass on this one.

I was worried when I first picked up this game because of awful reviews given on gaming websites. However, I'm a fan of ghost stories AND detective games, so I had to give it a shot when I was able to pick it up for around $30. The first thing that struck me was the atmosphere. The art style is very well designed and portrays two separate worlds, the real world and the ghost world, very well on one screen at the same time. The voice acting for the main characters is incredibly well done, although some of the random characters walking around are average. The sound in this game is surprisingly important, as often times you'll hear enemies shriek long before you ever realize they're there. The collectables are a lot of fun to hunt down and find, with many of them providing extra Ghost stories that are narrated over a still picture. They are wonderfully done, and add a lot to the world of the game. The investigations are fun, if not terribly deep, and you never really fail an investigation so you don't have to worry about starting over. The "combat" is... a little wonky, and really is best viewed if you try it more as a puzzle than an action game. It's designed to try and sneak up on your enemies, since there's no way to directly confront them. The story is everything I hoped I'd get from a good ghost story, and is why I have enjoyed playing this game so much. The main character is #surprisingly# incredibly likable, finding information about the killer is intriguing, and the side ghost stories can be especially fun. However, a fair warning: If you're considering buying this for your young teen or child, please consider that this game is rated M for Mature for a good reason. There are acts that are described in the game or shown in cutscenes that, while not gory, can be downright disturbing, and sometimes involve children. The game isn't perfect though, and suffers from a few technical faults. The game hiccups at weird, random locations sometimes, and can make it feel a little sluggish. Other times, you'll get spotted when you think you're clearly behind a wall, only to find out you had a tiny spot of you sticking through but didn't notice because of the camera angle. Minor details for a story game, but makes it seem not as polished as it could of been. Overall, if you like games for the story, or you like a good ghost story. If you're unsure, I would highly recommend this game once it drops in price a little bit or goes on sale. Definitely have enjoyed ever minute of the game. I paid 30 and don't regret it at all.

Game is very slow and boring. Could not play it for more than 10 mins.

great game great graphics great story a lil short but still worth it … paid $60 and got a free $10 gift card at best buy and got free online guide dlc

This game may not win any awards/game of the year but I very much enjoyed it. It kind of reminded me of the movie Ghost. I wasn’t able to collect all the collectibles but did finish the game. I have two complaints in the game. One is the distance meter wasn’t always accurate. You would get close to your destination then the number would go up and you’re like ‘ what the heck?’. Also it took me countless deaths and until the judgement house to learn how to properly kill demons. I got to the point where I held down R2 but when it showed L+A,B or Y, it didn’t say you had to press L then pull down L then the letter. I believe that’s the right combination because I killed 2 demons consecutively doing this combination. I usually give my games away to gamestop once I beat them but I may actually play the game again and collect all the collectibles.

picked this up on clearance for 11$ seems like a good price for it average game but there some fun to be found here

I had a lot of fun playing this game. The story was interesting and held my attention. But I completed the game in under 8 hours. There is no replay at all. Once you beat it that it. If you missed an achievement, you have to replay the whole game from the beginning. Puzzles could be challenging at times. On the whole not a bad game.

I bought this game being a fan of detective style games like L.A. Noire, but was left feeling underwhelmed. The premise seemed cool enough: solve your own murder. But the way the game makes you traverse confined areas finding clues and solving puzzles was very boring. I would recommend buying if you enjoy these types of games and the game is ~$15.

It was a new twist on a kind of role playing game with great graphics, story line and some thinking to do in order to proceed to the end.

This is a good murdered mystery game with compelling story line.

this game is a lot of fun. i really love the graphics. i wish there was a map, to make it easier getting around to different locations. but its still a good game.

The trailers for this game looked fantastic. The sales pitch of open world game play from beyond the grave, investigating your own murder, and seeing some spooky sites in Salem, MA. Well, here it is. The game has decent graphics, but not what you would expect from the nexgen consoles. The world is extremely small and you are blocked at nearly every turn from getting outside of the main paths. The game plays more like a story rather than an actual game. Run here, run there, press this button sequence and then watch the cut scenes. Even the "combat" left much to be desired. No action, sneak up on a demon and press a button sequence and voila! There is absolutely no replay value to this game because it will be the same every time you play it. Same story, same sequence of events, same roaming patterns of demons, and the same lackluster finale.

It's not my favorite genre or style of play. But cool game none the less.

It's kind of an adventure game style without the points and clicks.

A great game one of the best of the year and worth getting
