Enslaved...

Post by Riqz85 »

Seriously..... GAME OF THE YEAR 2010 for me...

Best acting i've ever seen in a videogame. Heavy Rain's Quantic Dream should learn something from this.

The game is amazing...gameplay is fun, simple but not too simple. It has different things happening all the time. It has crazy references that'll make you laugh.

The relationship between Monkey and Trip is so cute. I just love carrying her around on my back.

Psychological aspects in the game are also really cool. You're supposed to be her slave but you end up working together to reach the goals... She orders you around but at the same time you're ordering her around!

I really would FORCE you all to buy this if I could. I knew nearly nothing about the game before picking it up and if you don't know much about it either then grab it quickly before anyone spoils anything else about the game.

Can't wait to get back to it. Haven't spent this long on a single game in quite a while...

i tried the demo and monkey seemed slow to react to button pushes, the same thing was mentioned in the GT review also. is it something you get used to? I'd told myself I'd wait for a drop in price.

Never noticed it... And never played the demo either. It might have changed.

This review is pretty spot on (but don't read it if you don't want any type of spoilers. This game is best played with no preconceptions). http://www.joystiq.com/2010/10/01/enslaved-review/

I don't know, I didn't like Heavenly Sword. Aren't these the same developers?

I"m tired of being burned by games that get great reviews and then suck

I think it was the controls that turned me off if I remember correctly. That can make or break a game for me.

You have a point, I think I just said that because I had seen some positive reviews up on gamerankings before seeing your post
