Pandora's Tower Review
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but swords and chains excite me. Should you climb the towers in Xseed's JRPG/adventure hybrid to save your cursed (and tragically whiny) girlfriend?

What do these ratings mean?

SCARY FUN!

EA jumps into the Survival Horror genre & Damn did they show some good work into this title.
The story is very interesting especially (You could get more of the plot if you view their comics) specially love the art design you can unlock after missions, I also love the themes put into this combining Doom 3, Event Horizon (Surprisingly the only good movie Paul WS Anderson ever made) & John Carpenter's The Thing to a delightful package of Mutant Space Zombie !@$%-'em Up.

The physics let alone are beautiful & so enabling that if there's a time you ever get frustrated after !@#$ing up a few freaks & you just want to stomp of something? This game has it, Burn 'em alive? This game has it, Full-on Melee brawl with your unloaded guns? This game has it, INTUITIVE GAME CONTROLS! Has it, Cut up & Dismember bodies in the most brutal ways possible! Pretty surprising how a game like this manages to get through MPAA with such gore. and did I forget? ZERO Gravity Environments where enemies can practically come from everywhere.

Environments are amazing also, with great lighting & detail which is very deep & very haunting ambience which gives you the feeling that you're not safe & the next area you go to there's maybe a horde of savage necromorphs that just want to mangle you.

Worthy Rental & Worthy Buy if you're into a good scare & !@#$ 'em up, if there were some minor flaws that's paying a bit too close attention to detail apart from how fun the game really works.
