Dont right it off because of it's lower quality graphics. The game is scoring pretty well in reviews, and apparently it's scary as hell. You dont know who to trust because your team mates could become infested at anytime so theres always a watch your back kind of feeling even though people are already watching your back. It's based on the movie of the same name, I really do recommend you guys to check it out.

It can be scary sometimes. Some bugs are when it just happens to crash to the desktop at the same place every time. Sometimes it just freezes. Thats why im not too far into the game heh. The team members are cool though, they act independently unless you order them to do something.

yeah the movie is entertaining but very violent.

the scene where the guy gets infected and runs outa the bunker or what ever, that scene was so strange the guy screemed like a wolf and then he showed the guys his fingers which looked like tree branches lol.
