Isn't that a console game?

Originally it was, but they made a port to the PC. Not a particularly
*good* port (don't even think of trying to play with mouse keyboard;
the default key layout is horrible) but the game does have its moments
despite that.

I mean, I'd still rate the six-year old Blade of Darkness (aka
Severance) ahead of this title, but we aren't talking total stinker
here.


I liked Project Snowblind, it was a good game with interesting gameplay.
And it hasn't been hyped like mediocre titles like STALKER and Bioshock.

It could have used more variety; there's basically only four terrain
types (ruined city, monastary, sewers and high-tech headquarters), and
maybe only five or six bad-guys (not including bosses). The story
isn't particularly strong either. It feels more like a mission pack to
an existing game than a stand alone title.
