I remember getting this beauty in a bundle pack for my rocking gaming chair around 2009. Still till this day one of the scariest games I have ever experienced. I loved playing it so much on my xbox 360 but it's a shame I never got around to finishing it. Planning to do so when I play the remaster on PC sometime soon. Regardless I will still give this a positive due to the lasting impact it did on me as a kid.

8/10 One thing that kind of threw me off is how many items or ammo the enemies would drop, it wasn't even a rarity to see this happen, but more so from almost every enemy you killed, which for a game like this, would've been fine with having most of the loot scattered elsewhere (like it already does), unlike having it drop from enemies, but hey, that's just me! Overall, was a great experience!

I started playing the PC port a while back. I never actually finished it. When I played it a couple of years ago, the primary reasons that I stopped and took a break was because of how often the game would crash. At this stage it should be known that the classic or 2008 version of this game no longer works on Steam and crashes on startup. Do not buy this port.
