Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 1 out of 20
  2. Negative: 1 out of 20
  1. Despite the fact that this looks like a PS2 game and has come control and camera issues, the story (and the execution of it) are stellar.
  2. Had it cooked a bit longer, however, this could have been a classic. [Fall 2002, p.118]
