    Anyone know if this is any good? I'm not really that keen on games that are based off films. Because at least 70% of the time they turn out to be awful.
    I'm a big fan of the Saw films though, and a big fan of horror games.

    Just wondering if this is decent enough to rent or buy?
    Thanks :cool:

    I played through this recently, not a bad game at all. It plays a bit like a Silent Hill game (both Konami) It's six chapters altogether, each one 45 mins to an hour. Very twisted game in parts... just like the movies i suppose. One poor element is the melee combat, which is very hit and miss. Overall though, it's very decent, definitely worth at least a rental.

    I quite like it too... I played through the first chapter last night and enjoyed it. Puzzles are pretty clever and the game has buckets of atmosphere. Its only supposed to be 6 hours long (or thereabouts) with no incentive to replay.

    Was expecting this game to get a right bashing when I seen this thread. I haven't played it myself because I thought it would be useless, but I have to say from what you's have been saying its turned my opinion around. IS this available to rent as I'd like to have a look at it.

    I'm pretty sure they have it in Xtravision (in LK one anyway)

    Meh I didn't really like this game. Puzzles were very repetitive and the combat was just all over the place.
