Agreed Tex, i brought it when it first came out (for the PS2) and it's pretty amazing the tension is probably the most chilling i've experienced in a game since the Resident Evil franchise, i really like the way that you have to watch your back and can't really trust anyone for they might be the enemy, even having not seen the film its a pretty good stand alone game, although seeing the film is a must not just for it being a classic but also to add to the tension when playing the game.
i agree that the game did a great job at giving off a great atmosphere. I rememebr when i first played the game i thought it was deffaintly going to be a great game. It did somthing new with your party of characters. However about 4 stages into the game it got very repetetive, and became more of a shoot em up than the strategic thriller it was hinting at. I thought it had a great idea but felt incomplete. There was so much possibilities they could have done with the inner party connection they started, but seems they just forgot about it. It's fun if you like the thing but gets very redundant if your a gamer, This is the gameplay aspect of the game. The story is worth playing the game for though
