Since it was annouced this game look half arsed from the medicore gameplay to the poor graphical presentation and don't get me started on the generic characters you get to choose from.The game comes out today in the US, no review copys have been sent out which can only been seen as a bad sign but I didn't know the game would be this bad.

Watch the video about and you will see how bad it is, the game doesn't even look finished with so many rough edges the only thing that looks half decent are the character models.

Yeah the game has looked a bit dodgy from the start, my only hope was that it would play alright. It looks like entire textures are missing though, look at the ground textures, they're just a blur. If this doesn't sell Silicon Knights may very well be out of here.

When it comes to marketing there is literally nothing for this game be it on the web or a TV ad it seems Activision have no confidence in this product, I wouldn't be suprised if they told Silicon Knights to put together what they have just so they can get a return on the investment.

I think this just hurts the company, the game isn't based on a movie so I'm wondering just how long was this game in development for because it looks like a game that needs another 6 months.

Too Human bombed and I can't see this selling so Silicon Knights are in rough waters, so I'm wondering where do they go from here and if they can turn this around.

To be honest this is expected, the past two games have been average and it is hard to keep up in this current industry what with level of expectations rising each year. I wonder where they go from here, the most obvious thing would be to switch focus to downloadable titles.
