IGN gave it a pretty scathing review.
Anyone here played it and want to share their opinion?
I'm debating whether or not to get it.
No spoilers please.

Played it a couple years back and the best way to describe it as a Silent Hill/Uncharted hybrid of sorts. By that I mean you will be walking around deserted areas around the city while at the same time you will be climbing stuff to get to other places. Its basically one big survival game considering at no given point are you really given enough ammo or the like to shoot your way out of a situation so you have to in a way use what you have to either kill those who get in your way or make them surrender to prevent further damage to you or them. Considering how little it cost now until Monday and if what I describe sounds interesting to you then give it a try. If you have any more questions before then feel free to ask.

I tried it and really hated it, but I honestly can't remember why. I think the controls were a big part of it tho.

Played it for about 2 hours then deleted it forever. The game looked pretty good. Dark and gritty atmosphere, but the controls were extremely bad and each fight was predetermined. If you didn't follow the exact path of a fight (for example: hit guy1 first, kick guy3 then shoot guy2) you couldn't win. You had to do exactly as the developers intended. That combined with a limited amount of lives/reloads made me delete the game.

IGN and and game review company rig their ratings and they aren't legit. I never read game reviews unless just for fun if the editor is funny.

I wouldn't say they aren't legit, just not the best when it comes to a lot of games, especially the big ones. Best to avoid though.
I remember being interested in this game when it came out, cause I'm all about the post-apocalyptic stuff, but it seemed to get fairly underwhelming opinions. Kinda surprised to see it's still like 15 bucks on Steam though. Would've thought a budget arcade title like this would be down fairly cheap now after 3 years. Still not a bad price though. Even at the worst of not liking it, it's only 15 bucks lost.

I remember wanting it at first, till I watched some game play than I changed my mind

It's $5 right now in a PSN flash sale. Still, I think I'll pass.
