Legendary is a fantastic thrill ride that you won’t soon forget.
Accept that Legendary won’t wow you with the gameplay polish of a budget-busting title, and you’ll likely have a good time fighting to shut Pandora’s precious package.

I really like this game of true action fps with a world very detailed
Fun is sure
I must say this game is underrated and I don't understand why eweryone have to play this awesome game
The only thing I don't appreciate was the abscence of the multiplayer players (not working or don't know why)
But surely they are playing the campaign of this very interesting game (Y)

Legendary is an acceptable, sometimes frustrating game, a simple entertainment until the great first-person shooters of the year are released.
There are just way too many better shooters available to make this game worth your time and money.
Every hour, you are presented with the ideas that the developer had but simply couldn’t afford, and that only serves to make Legendary’s unrelenting run-and-gun approach harder to swallow. [Christmas 2008, p.96]
Legendary is something of a marvel. While I've played a lot of terrible first-person shooters, I never realized that there would be one that missed the mark so completely.
One of the purest examples I know of an idea elevating subpar to average gameplay to something greater.
This game is extremely cheap nowadays, and if you want a unique FPS, there is a LOT worse you can do than this.

Its a fun FPS with some really intense moments and lots of action. Overall a really good first person shooter. Dont see why most of the critics hate it so much. Only things i didnt like was that you had to be very close and precise to any "action" (break the security panel to open a door, turn a lever) and it didnt give me the achievement for beating the game. On top of that, you have to beat it three times to get all three difficulty level achievements because they dont stack. I was planning on playing it on easy and hard to get all those achievements but since it didnt unlock for normal mode I wont bother.

Legendary is just a Half-Life clone. There are some fun puzzles, and an interesting story, but the controls are clunky, and the graphics are bad even for the time in which it came out. It's ugly and confusing to look at. It really didn't add anything new to the FPS genre, and its completely sub-par in it's execution.

Legendary is a good example of when a good concept is done poorly.
The story of Legendary has some real potential.I won't spoil it in case you decide to play the game.
The gameplay is generic,but has some cool innovations,like the Animus,which allows you to regain health as it does not regenerate,very old **** also allows you to release a sonic wave that affects the creatures.There are also a few fun enviromental **** can't just take cover either,as the creatures will find you and decimate you.Though they can kill you in 3-4 hits,which makes the game infuriatingly hard.
The graphics are poor,but I've seen much **** framerate is **** my biggest problem with the game is the atrocious loading times.After dying,It took 2 minutes for me to load back to the nearest checkpoint.
Sound design is good,particularly for the **** soundtrack is poor however.
Overall,Legendary is an interesting premise done poorly,which is a shame.
