Avis sur le produitChronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena (Sony PlayStation 3, 2009)

Decent Game

Decent Game probably only worth a rent but for the right price it could definately be worth it. This disc includes two games in one. The popular 2004 xbox only release of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay and the new Assult on Dark Athena. I've played butcher bay when it orginally came out and its worth the price of this double pack alone. The new expansion had the possiblity to be a great stealth combat game. It starts out really strong with the shadow play and great stealth kills but slowly starts giving you guns and other ramdom weapons which turns the game into yet another bland shooter with set coarse of destruction and hoards of mindless enemys. The Assult on Dark Athena game is split into two seperate areas. first area is where you begin the game onboard a mercenaries spaceship after it captures your ship while drifting in space. (what are the odds?) As you make you way through the ship you encounter a group of prisioners within a holding bay that you are forced to help. There is somekind of past story line with the ships hellbent chick captian Rivas. Your plan is simple just escape like in butcher bay. but unlike butcher bay which prey heavily on stealth throughout the game about half way throught the first area it turns into a run and gun platformer game that wouldnt even be worth more than a weekend rental. The only thing that slightly saved the game was the second area. Its a planet riddick crash lands on after escape the athena. Compared to the first area which is a dark murky spaceship this area is a well-lit outdoor beach haven with somekind of factory/castle structure you must infaltrate. I found this part the best section of the game climbing/hanging/scaling ledges and taking out unsupecting guards. but once inside the fortess it was back to the old grime of run and gun killing.

Moreover the games seemed short and distant cry from what the orginal had to offer. I completed the game with about 7 hours on normal difficulty. There was few random side missions and collected item i neglected to find or complete cuz they only granted you production art and photos. The Graphics are first rate and vin diesel voice dialoge keeps the player involve in riddicks character. I didnt get a chance to play the multiplyer section of the game but if it was anything like the single player game movement and weapon selection it wouldnt be anything all that great. The Game had such potential with awesome stealth kills and shadow vision but changing game style and bland gameplay in area's dont give the game much lasting appeal. I'm sad to see it didnt become one of the more popular stealth combat games.Lire l'avis complet...

Excellent game. The recipe for movie games usually never works, but this one makes up for it ten-fold

Probably the best movie licensed game made to date. Superb graphics (for 2009), outstanding voice acting and cast. Gameplay still holds up. Vin Diesel hit this one out of the park!
If you're a fan of 1st person perspective games, dont miss out on this gemLire l'avis complet...

The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena (PS3)

Good solid single player experience. 2 solo campaigns: Butcher Bay (12 hour playthrough) and Dark Athena (8 hour playthrough) with tons of unlockables sprinkled throughout the levels. Enemy A.I. is beastly on harder difficulty settings, but not impossible.

Multiplayer online is a welcome addition and will likely entertain you for an additional 10 hours. However, the community of players is small to nonexistent. You'll likely play the same people over and over again no matter what. Trophy support increases the overall value, but you'll likely never, ever go platinum unless you boost. If you find this game in the bargain bin, definitely pick it up!Lire l'avis complet...

Like sneaking around killing people?

Chronicles of riddick:Assault on Dark Athena is one hot game, I bought it about a month ago and I almost have it beat. Now I'm no big time gamer I just like to kick back and play some cool games. I really like it because Vin Desel is in it, I love his voice. But I also like that you get to sneak around and kill people. What I don't like is that it is alot like Butcher Bay but then again I think they wanted it like that, I don't know what the co-op is like because I don't have x-box live.Lire l'avis complet...

Fantastic--2 great games in one

As a fan of this series, I was thrilled to read that there was a PS3 Riddick game in the works. I had played Escape from Butcher Bay on the original Xbox a few years back and loved it.

After reading about the newest chapter of the saga, I discovered that Assault on Dark Athena actually includes a reworked version of the first game AND a new game. Both look terrific in 1080p. I can't believe how amazing a game designed in 2004 looks in 2009--as far as games go, this is monumental! The game play still makes brilliant use of light and shadow.

PS3 gameplay includes trophy support and a sweet multiplayer "Pitch Black" mode.

Riddick fans will love this game. Everyone just might find themselves becomming fans after this game.Lire l'avis complet...

Classic

2 Classic games! I used to own this, but traded it in. It was worth repurchasing.

Very underrated

I loved the two games, gave some back story on what happened before pitch black. I had a blast playing them and recommend it to any gamer. The graphics are dated (2004,2009) but they are great for the time they came outLire l'avis complet...
