Ballistics Report

Pros

Fear on a CD: Terminal Reality really jacked up the adrenal gland stimulators this time. There aren't many games that make you sleep with the lights on.

Unbelievable Graphics: Better than Nocturne. Perfect style, perfect fit and the character models (check out the diner!) are awesome. The amazing backgrounds do so much for the game that we don't have words to describe it. It just wouldn't be the same, scary game if it didn't look so great.

So cuuuute. She must be Canadian.

Excellent Sound: The game is made on its sound effects and ambient music. They blend in so well you just don't realize they are even there.

Cool Plot: You get to find out more about the Blair Witch legends and actually participate in the story now. Not that you have any choices in it, but it's still worth the once-over.

Check that, reflections!

Now THAT'S dark

Cons

No Replay value: The game is fun and scary the first time through and still manages to scare you the second time around, but it's not the same. It's like playing a scary movie.

Painful Control Scheme: The game would be much more fun if we could actually get a grip over ourselves in combat. Fortunately, auto-aim works very well.

High Difficulty: This is not the game you want to buy for the inexperienced gamer unless he has a lot of patience. Rustin Parr was designed with a lot of efficiency in mind. If you've wasted too much ammo or health in some parts, you'll probably have to go back to an earlier savegame. Save often and use multiple slots.

Spooky

Is that a cool effect or what?
