"Enslaved: Odyssey to the West" is a flawed epic. The story, the voice acting, and the action is second to none. However, the immersion is brought down by some occasionally dodgy animation, camera angles and the dreadful FMV sequences. It’s a shame, because if Ninja Theory had a bit more time or budget, this would be game of the year, easily. Read more

Enslaved is a decent start of a new game franchise and is an important step for the development team to see if they can reach new heights with a potential sequel (which I hear is already starting to shape). Read more
- It’s a beautiful, fun and engaging adventure with a lot of action and a few puzzles neatly tucked in, great atmosphere, solid voice acting;
- Combat gets a bit repetitive, enemies and battles in general need more variety, we really missed co-op in this one.

Enslaved: Odyssey to the West is a great example of how a gripping story and strong artistic design can overcome slight gameplay problems. Your movement is rough around the edges and you have to get through half of the game before the combat really shows off its true potential, but those are minor blemishes on this fine package.

- Sympathetic characters and well-crafted cutscenes, A wide variety of beautiful locations, Smooth combat that is brutally satisfying, Boss fights, chase scenes, and puz...
- Touchy movement controls, Camera is too zoomed in at times.

Ninja Theory once again shows their mastery of the cinematic video game experience. Read more
- Simple but fun combat; awe-inspiring visuals; immersive storytelling; fantastic voice acting.
- Minor camera issues; some trouble with combat.

DICE has become quite prominent as a developer due to the Battlefield series which features console classics like Bad Company and Bad Company 2. However, Mirror’s Edge, released in 2008, has apparently also influenced a fair amount of people, especially given the implementation of free running (also known as parkour) elements and the antiseptic, sterile styling of certain maps in Brink.

Nothing changes the fact though that despite some easy, dodgy, or rushed gameplay mechanics, Back to the Future: The Game is well worth experiencing for fans of the films. The voice-acting is superb, the music evokes Hans Zimmer’s iconic score well, the writing sharp and usually funny, the characters (both old and new) are interesting and the plot hits all the right notes. And the ending? Read more
- Story is utterly wonderful, characters go through some interesting developments, THAT ENDING.
- Really easy, the Hill Valley Science Expo is boring and utterly unbelievably empty, another vehicle clamber, we didn\'t go to 2015.

Enslaved: Odyssey to the West review Game Over Online - http://www.game-over.com At first glance Enslaved: Odyssey to the West’s post-apocalyptic plot might turn away some players, but unlike the dreary brown and grey colored action games like Gears of War, Enslaved is a vibrant, beautiful and consistently stunningly realized world that manages to breathe new life into the ailing ‘post-apocalyptic’ genre.

Enslaved might wind up as a sleeper surprise for the enthusiast gamers who don’t only watch Spike TV commercials to make their video game buying decisions. But it’s a shame, because this game, even with its flaws, could have really used some marketing and branding to get the word out. Read more
