Review Showcase
OBEY. PLAY. THIS. GAME.
Firstly I got impressed by the "overwhelming positive" reviews and the number of reviews in total.
Soon I got impressed by this game. 14 hours packed with tense and drama, unbelieveable amazing graphics, superb controls, given this a console port.

The storylines are twisted, not very linear and every decision counts (and timing).
