Deadly Premonition
#1
Deadly Premonition is a budget third person survival horror game with an open world released for the Xbox 360, and it got severely mixed reactions from the critical press. Some people hated what they perceived as clunky controls and its occasionally unrefined graphics, whereas many more adored its fantastically bizarre style, storyline and characters.

Personally speaking, there was nothing about this game I didn't appreciate. Its graphics, though unrefined, are done so charmingly; its music is enjoyable and quirky, its characters outstanding and its gameplay mechanics incredibly well-conceived. It takes the traditional survival-horror genre and implants it into a real world setting, with the guise of a mystery-murder plotline. On top of this beautifully flawed and charming experience is a bizarre icing (coffee flavored).

Two reviews: IGN.com, who gave it a 2.0, and Destructoid, who gave it a 10.0.

Quote:Deadly Premonition is the definition of a system seller. Once you play it, you'll want to go sell your system. That may seem like a harsh statement, but it's been a long time since I've played any boxed retail game on any system that feels this amateurish.

Quote: Deadly Premonition is almost perfect at what it does -- it throughly, confusingly, entertains from start to finish. There is nothing about this beautiful disaster I would like to have seen done differently
