The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay (XBox)
Posted: Jun 21, 2004 @ 5:15amI just bought the game last night and I must say it is a lot of fun. The controls take a bit of getting used to, but I really love how the hand-to-hand combat and the stealth tactics work. There's something very satisfying about crouching up behind an enemy and gutting him with a sharp object for an instant kill. 
What's really impressive is that not only is it probably the best game based on a movie ever, but the developers were evidently only given less than two years to create the game. I'd say that's pretty impressive considering the amazing gameplay, graphics, sounds, details, etc. The only peeve I have is with the gunplay....it's just not as tight as Halo's. Aiming accurately can be difficult at times...but maybe I just suck. Still, this game roxxers!
