[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjcSeNIcnE0[/media] I've never seen a current-Gen game miss the mark on everything it set out to do as hard as Damnation. Few games pull off levels on an epic scale that feel so empty and uninteresting. Thankfully, the game is so bad, it's good.
I remember almost buying this game. Glad I didn't
I played like the first level or so and couldn't get passed because the controls were so fucked up and the whole level was a platform thing so you had to climb/jump/do other shit to get across.
It looks like the shooter equivalent of Sonic 06
I rented this shit once. Although the concept was cool, the execution was just plain godawful, like if you took Gears of War's gameplay, added some clunky platforming and terrible driving, and took every ounce of fun imaginable out of it. When you take a game back to a local rental place and ask for a different one and they entirely agree due to knowing just what the game's like, there's a problem.
I actually beat this piece of shit.

I seem to remember playing a game demo or mod that was really similar to this. I think it was a lot older, but it had such similar style including the motorbike and the guns, but it also had magic i think anyone else know it?

why does this game have such an overabundance of silly hats

I like the idea for that motorbike where they stand on the back sort of thing looks cool. However as said, I nearly pre-ordered this, think it was around £15, so glad I didn't what a heap of shit.

I feel sorry for the artists who worked on this, seeing as their work was kind of decent at least. Voice actors, not so much.

I would imagine it would be a lot of fun in Co-op though. The game is boring as nails with the computer, but if you played with co-op the game would manage to be interesting enough.

Some parts of it are almost impassable on "normal" because of how useless your NPC buddy is.
"The Room" of video games
I rented the shit out of this game for 360. It was rather poorly put together but it was decently enjoyable. Would not buy it, though. Like, ever.
No Snake Eater for the ladder sequence?
i blame steam punk
