played the demo, found it to be just boring...

the minotaur encounter was lame. yes, it can break through walls. through an area filled with ridiculously placed rows of walls obviously created just to show off that aspect, in fact. and the attack animation made, as well as the accompanying cut-and-paste wall-break animation, are repeated ad nauseum. which is just immersion-breaking and lame as sh1t.

and of course none of your squadmates seem to notice or care that u alone have this unfair advantage of absorbing Animus and using it to heal yourself or repel monsters. they're pretty much just there to get shredded by werewolves in front of you so that the unintelligent losers who play this sh1t can go "whoa, that's so bad@$$!!!" (oh and that's yet another repeated animation). at least HEROES shows 'Normals' reacting appropriately to 'Heroes', for the most part...

not much to make this game stand out from any other crap shooter, IMO.

NOTHING deserves a Uwe Boll movie. That guy is simply atrocious at everything he does. I can't believe how he can make a move so stupid, I'm not kidding I got sick after watching House of the Dead. It's like he actually wants to fail. A monkey with a camera and 10 bucks can make a better movie than this guy.

"Until the law was changed in 2005, Boll was able to acquire funding thanks to German tax laws that reward investments in film. The law allowed investors in German-owned films to write off 100% of their investment as a tax deduction; it also allowed them to invest borrowed money and write off any fees associated with the loan. The investor was then only required to pay taxes on the profits made by the movie; if the movie loses money, the investor got a tax writeoff."

And in his own words, "Maybe you know it but it's not so easy to finance movies in total. And the reason I am able to do these kind of movies is I have a tax shelter fund in Germany, and if you invest in a movie in Germany you get basically fifty percent back from the Government."

He basically makes money even if its crap, which all of them have been.
