"A game that can be completed in three hours may sound short, but most will probably greet the game's ending with a sense of relief rather than a desire to keep on playing. When you're done with Lucidity, you'll feel as if you've been on a haunting and memorable journey through the psyche of a young girl. Unfortunately, the gameplay rarely contributes much enjoyment to this experience and often operates at direct odds with it. Some may find the music, visuals, and poignant story enough of a draw to make putting up with Lucidity's flaws worthwhile, but those wonderful qualities deserved a much better game."
Game On! is an Australian video game podcast that's hosted by former Official PlayStation Magazine Australia journalist Paul Frew, his brother Kevin Frew and graphic artist Todd Cooper.
On this week's show, Paul, Todd and Kevin take a look back at some of the reviews they did during the year for titles such as Batman Arkham Asylum, Killzone 2, Ghostbusters and many more.

Kombo: After talking about it for weeks, I finally got around to playing LucasArts' gorgeous download title Lucidity. I booted the game up, and finished it in one sitting. It's not a particularly long game, but what really kept me playing is the simple yet incredibly effective story.
