Chronicles of Riddick game ?

[Formula1]

I'm wondering if anyone on this forum has played CoR: Escape from butcher bay, and has any thoughts on it ? It was previously released on Xbox and then onto the PC. I saw a trailer of it on G4tect tv and the game looks pretty awesome , and it got pretty good ratings..

[newcombe6]

only played it on the xbox - but the pc is versio is identical apparently (except for 2 extra control a robot bits).

quite a good game - very atmospheric and youll enjoy playing it - but personally dont think its an absolute classic tho

definitely a solid 8/10 fps tho - and theres some good set peices - well worth a look

[cpt_azad]

10/10 no doubt about it, has a lot of replay value and just plain kicks ass, the voice acting is superb, the best i've ever heard in a game. graphics are awesome and definately not what i expected my xbox could handle but it did. very good story too. check it out.

[Formula1]

Alright thanks for the suggestions :D , I'll definetely give this game a try in the near future :D

[Money Fist]

yep
i read a few good reviews

im after this one too

[cpt_azad]

yup

[Guyver]

yes gr8 game, played it over twice already for the pc :)

[asmithz]

Great game, look way better on the PC then on the xbox. If your a fan of the COR series, this follows it well.

[colt45joe]

definately not what i expected my xbox could handle but it did.

hmm...i was kinda dissappointed in that part...i thought the xbox could do better .

but the game is kickass

[sameer0807]

[cpt_azad]

nice

[silent h3ro]

Yea thats the version I have.

[newcombe6]

hard? i know everyone on this board will be at a different level of gamesplaying - but i dont think its particularly hard - just dont play it like a regular fps - learn to sneak up on poeple and crack there necks and youll be fine

besides theres something strangely good about snapping peoples necks in the dark.....

oh dear - i must stop playing violent video games. it seems the politicians are right - ill be killing people in the dark next.wankers......

[Shiranai_Baka]

I still don't understand. The story says he got the eyes for 20/10 menthols from this preacher guy or something but he got it from that voice.. was he being sarcastic or what?

And the is the timeline messed up? because the voice challenges him to go to Butcher bay but he already has the eyes but he got the eyes when he was in Butcher bay.

[n18]

play the game it'll tell u.
i did but i didnt like it, so how he got them shined? :o

[cpt_azad]

some spirit thingy (u gotta watch CoR the movie to understand it fully, hard to explain).

[Shiranai_Baka]

yeah, I watched that too.. I still didn't understand.. how is the game related to the movie?

[cpt_azad]

I dont really know now that I come to think about it hmmmmm....

[Formula1]

yeah, I watched that too.. I still didn't understand.. how is the game related to the movie?

The game is a prequel to the movie .... According to what i saw on G4tech tv...

The sprit is using the guys body to give riddick the eyes. If you re-watch Pitch Black the little boy (who's really a girl) asks where he/she can get eyes like that. Riddick replys with 'You've gotta go to the hardest slammer in the sector, fight your wa throught the ranks, kill peole, meet a guy get a nice eye shine job' or something along the lines of that.
