this game came in the post last month from gamesfrenzy.co.uk

started playing that evening; it was awesome!

the combat was amazing, slicing enemies in half. cutting off appendages e.t.c
nice graphics aswell - the big let down was the bugginess of it, i wont list the bugs because they are not really that bad they just distract you a little, voice acting sucks and theres quite abit of reading to do, great for achievements aswell, i got an easy 400+ out of it in about 6 plays (about 45 minutes each time) you will get most of these achievements in the first land. Also theres no sense of acomplishment later on, i had cleared the first land then nearly all of the second land of Legion scum. AND STILL! i had to prove my worth.
if i rated this out of Ten i would give this a 7/10

Must rent not buy as there is no online play (but i only play online on my ps3) good game, some bugs and maybe could do with a sequel, but maybe not

Yeah I rented this recently too. Once I got through it, I was done. No replay value...for me anyways. Fun enough to keep killing dudes. The bigger battles can be annoying trying to see where you are in comparison to everyone else. Plus, you'll get a steady stream of hits on you in big battles which makes it almost impossible to fight back.

Other then that, though, good rent. Beat it in about 8 or 10 hours.

Running your review through a spellchecker would do wonders for your writing. You have a lot of strange capitalization, misplaced punctuation, and a whole lot of major spelling mistakes, to include: aswell, acomplishment, theres, and abit. Also 'I' is always capitalized when using it to refer to yourself.

If you do not currently have a word processing program I suggest downloading a free one at: http://www.openoffice.org/

Generally the writing is much too sloppy to convey your opinion, and your 7/10 score just sort of emphasizes that point. Don't let the score define your review. Try writing pieces that don't need a score to get the point across. If you're going to write the same way you talk make sure you have something to say. "Hey guys this game is fun." isn't really much of a review. We want supporting ideas on your opinions.

For example: Summer is nice.

By itself that statement is just someone's opinion, and it's weak. Most people aren't just going to take your word for it. They want to know how you arrived at your conclusions.

Now take: Summer is nice. That's the only time I get to spend with my family.

This statement supports your opinion with anecdote. It gives the reader some insight into your thought process and connects them better with the writing.

Keep writing. We all started out somewhere.

yeah, this is like the first time I've ever reviewed anything, ill try alot harder on my next one; will either be doing The Force Unleashed or Mercenaries 2

The spellchecker on my mac book is terrible. It gets confused with the differences between English (UK) and English (US)

your review is a little short, and i would have liked more detail into why the combat is great but a decent enough review
