- Good Movie: The Order: 1886 would be a fantastic movie (or better yet: mini-series). The pace of story, camera work, voice acting, and plot twists are excellent. It kept me engaged right until the end; where I threw my controller due to the cliffhanger.
- Great Tech Demo: This game is easily one of the best looking on the system (until the witcher hits in ~2 weeks).

- Walk thru a spooky corridor
- Look for items
- Look at item
- Shoot dudes (or half breeds)

- Watch cut screens

As you can see, there is only a little bit of shooting things (aka fun) and a lot watching or looking for things. In my 5.6 hour play through, I only spent 1.5 hours walking around or shooting things. So, I am only really playing for 1.5 hours at $60, which is crazy - but the story is good.
My advice? Don’t waste your playtime - watch the “movie” and pretend to play - Enjoy!
