I'm going through it on PC. It works well. But it's got some issues. Several bugs that made me fall to my death way too many times.

Still enjoyable.

I am completely fucking in love with this game. I haven't been so addicted to a game since Thief: The Dark Project. Just the feeling of hopping around and climbing on things, looking for little short cuts, and then going back and chaining all those short cuts together without missing a beat is just fucking awesome. Hopefully the patch and leaderboard audit that gets rid of all the fucking cheaters will come quickly, because fuck those guys. (Especially YOU Office in .08 seconds guy. You're a dick.)

It's an absolute shame that this game sold so poorly. But when you consider when it was released, the lack of multiplayer and the length of the game, $60 is just too much for what can be perceived as little value to the average person, or more specifically, the gamer this was targeted towards.

I was hoping that it would sell well enough to warrant a sequel in which DICE could refine the combat (or remove it all together) and make a game in which the free running was the main task. Other than the combat and length, I have no problems with this game and it's in my top 5 for the year.

I just got this game! Bought it online on the cheap and it arrived yesterday. I can't wait to play it. I'll return with some impressions tomorrow

Uh oh.... I'm stuck! Can someone please help? I was just in this green building in like the third or fourth level. I had to run away from people and I ran into these air shafts. I fell down for a long ways, and then when I emerged, I was in a short hallway with two red doors. The two doors both led to the same indoor area. The area was a short L shaped stretch of corridors. It had two halls leading off to unopenable doors, and then two sets of green catwalks. One of the cat walks can be accessed. There are two red pipes stuck to the wall. One is right at floor level, and the other starts half way up the wall. They both are equally tall though. One green catwalk is on the wall oposit of the red pipes. You can jump to it but then there is no where to go. The other green catwalk is around the bend of the L, and there is no way that I can see to jump up to it. That inaccessable green catwalk has a red lined crawl space that the b button tells me I should head for. How on earth do I get there? My game came to a screeching halt last night over this issue

I tried wall runs, etc. Nothing got me up to the green catwalk that was around the bend from the other walk thats near the red pipes

Youtube seems to have video walkthroughs of every level - they're very helpful.

Where I'm staying right now I'm on 56k and so youtube videos are not very helpful

Nevermind, going to try and watch it while I'm still at work. If that doesn't help, I'll come back here

Oh, nevermind... Turns out I did have an idea of what I should do, it's just that it's an insanely difficult move I'll never be able to pull off.

Just wasted money on this game... too hard!

Can you please explain how he jumped that far, because I tried for an hour last night and could not do it

Never mind, LOL. I did it! Yay me

People still use 56k....? WOW!

At my Mom's I have cable, and at work it's T1, but my Dad is a WW2 vet, and I live with him. I have offered to pay for cable or DSL, but he will not do it. I might be getting my own place soon (fingers crossed!) and would get cable then (I hope..)

PS: The 56k connects at 24k Chud can take up 5 minutes to load sometimes

So I picked this up on sale on Steam and played through it on my PC. I had played the demo and not really loved the controls but on PC it worked pretty great. The art and style in the game was great. The story was not great but whatever ... not really a big deal.

It did get a bit frustrating at times when there were enemies everywhere and it wasn't clear where you were supposed to go (and you were getting shot too much to press the Alt key). It was pretty short, I managed to beat it playing off and on over the past 2 days. The PhysX stuff looked quite nice though and not having played an FPS game on my PC for a while, I love how much better the textures are on it and how much higher the resolution is vs. my consoles.
