okogawa posted - Oct, 06 2001 - 16:02 I have played the game non-stop and I must say that I agree review to some extent about cool and crips graphics, but... There is an issue here: - The game does get quite boring after a while when an pussle get's far to "extended" on it's own, like with the "two idols and machine"... Yes, for an "action-adventure" it's little to much "do-that-for-that-to-happen", and while the graphics are crisp there is little of "where-was-that", yes, everything looks the same... It's little like a story from real hell with this game, yes, and old man died and ended up in hell, and then he met other there to and said, wow, I can't be in hell as I see naked woman dancing just a bit from here... Then another man said to him: - well, look at the pussy... and the man did so, and said, what, none of the girls have any holes!!! Yes, the other man said: - You are in HELL! - - - And with that said I will say: - This game is like in HELL, it's PERFECT, but it lacks the REAL adventure part and it's to much inbreed and get's boring to damed fast! Well, I may complain, but soon I will start up a BETTER site than gamecopyworld and gameguru alltogheter becouse I am tired of all commercial and halfbaked things, I want patches and cracks and trainers on the SAME place.... so just MSG me for mor info!  write a comment The old comment system has been replaced.
