Love this game!! Its an old classic to me! Original Xbox had some great games and to me this is up there with the Max Paynes! I loved all of them.. The Suffering: The Tides That Binds is a great game also.

As we look into the Sub-genre of Dark Psychological/Paranormal Action games, “The Suffering” is among the top. With similar elements to great games such as “Manhunt,” “Ghosthunter,” and “Shadowman” (the dark past) just to name a few, Torque is the equivalent to The Punisher, but more so within his own sub-genre. A great story unfolds as you play through only to lead into the sequel which upheld the integrity of the franchise. Though this first installment is the greater of the two, the second tells you more about who Torque really is and was. It’s worth whatever price you pay for it, can’t miss out on one of the greatest…enough said.

This game is very nostalgic for me, so my review is very biased. If you’re under 21 I don’t know how much you would enjoy this game. The things that make this game great are commonplace in most games now. But this was cutting edge when it was released. Also, this will work on the 360, but the sequel will not. In this game you play as Torque, a convict in a Max security Boston prison. You are convicted of killing your wife and kid in a brutal fashion. Soon as you are placed on death row things go crazy. The prison is over run by monsters and ghosts of criminals that have died in the prison. So the whole game is about trying to survive and escape the prison. One of the best features is becoming a monster yourself. That is one of the weapons in your arsenal you can use to fight back. There’s also puzzles to solve as well, so it has a little bit of everything. The game has the same graphics as gta3 and plays 1st or 3rd person, just like fallout. Also like fallout, your decisions in the game effect the story. If you still have an original xbox I suggest playing this on that because the sequel will continue off of your save of this game continuing the story. Since the graphics are dated it losses some of its scare factor, but its still tons of fun to play. These things are in most games now, but if you’re old enough to remember how games use to be you’ll be blown away at how ahead off its time this game is.

Once I picked up this little ‘gem’, I couldn’t put it down, even though I was playing Riddick and KOTOR at the same time. I loved pretty much everything about this game. It was fun, well executed, with good level design, an interesting story and loads of fun. It even had some fun extras, like a documentary about ghostly prisons. It’s more than your average day FPS. I was able to play through the game in just a few days, but I spent quite a few hours on it daily. Yes, I have no life right now.The game has three endings depending on how well you ‘behave’ when you encounter other NPC’s. Help them, ignore them or kill them.The difficulty is adjustable and on normal, it was just a blast to play through. You have the usual array of weapons and once in a while you even get to use a mounted machine gun, which is quite useful in those areas, when the enemies just swarm at you for cannon fodder. The enemies/monsters are fun, based on the method of their execution. They could have been a bit more varied, but overall it doesn’t matter. In some areas they respawn, while in other you can just clean up and have some peace.I didn’t think it was overly gory, though there is a bit of red around and there is quite a bit of ‘adult’ language, if you want to call it that. The voice acting is ok, with only a couple of weirdos thrown in. (That green gas thing is a bit annoying and one of the initial prisoners is too, though luckily he doesn’t last very long). I wish the game would have been a bit lo.

I buy a lot of video games, sometime too many for my own good. More often than not, I play through enough before it either collects dust forever or it gets traded in for credit towards a new game. Sometimes, when I finally do beat a game, the overall thrill I initally experienced just failed to transcend the entire game and upon completion, I knew I’d never play it again. The Suffering fails to meet the criteria in both categories. From the outset, the game pulls you in head first for a ride that ultimately is a mystery until the very end.It starts out with you as Torque, a hardened criminal with zero emotional output. You are being lead off to your maximum security prison cell in the worst prison in America. Almost immediately upon arrival, strange phenoms start to become very real. In the blink of an eye, hideous creatures being spewing from every orifice in the building like a swarm of rats. Lights shatter. Guards get mauled. Prisoners are chopped in half. The entire system goes awry. You; as Torque, are basically free to battle the evil within the prison and ultimately, within yourself.The Suffering plays very similarly to Max Payne. It is a third-person action game that is propelled like a first-person shooter. The scenery is obviously different; though no less gritty, but the controls are smooth and easy to learn like Max Payne. There are enough similarites to many other action titles with it’s constant build-up to something and it’s bevy of puzzle-solving. The Sufferin.

So this game has been out for a long time now, but I figured if anyone still plays their old X-Box and is looking for a fun shooting game with a horror theme to it, this is your game.The premise is you play a newly arrived convict to the fictitious Abbott State Prison on the equally fictitious Carnate Island off the coast of Maryland and are placed on Death Row. Just as you get settled into your cell, a massive earthquake strikes the island. Horrible creatures begin stalking guards and prisoners alike and you must navigate your way out of the prison and off the island to safety. Along the way, you encounter others and based on your choices, the backstory of the character will be revealed as either evil, neutral, or good. You can also learn the history of the island and you will come to find that it is a place of concentrated evil.This game can be played either in 1st or 3rd person and is primarily a shooting game where you must fight your way through evil creatures that resemble various methods of death on the island (bladed spider-like creatures representing those killed by knives and shivs; firey specters representing girls burned at the stake in a 1600’s witch hunt, etc)More than just a shooter, this game has a fantastic spooky atmosphere. The crumbling prison, the woods, the abandoned Victorian mansion, caves, etc; the whole island is like a Halloween theme park.The music and ambient noises really add to the suspense of the game and you will find yourself jumping at.

First of all, to help our friend out who got stuck at the chasm, you have to kill all the infernas PLUS shoot their ash piles when they collapse. Otherwise, they keep regenerating, and you’ll just die. Once you kill them all and destroy their ashes, walk to the edge and the bus will come barreling down the street, so get out of the way! This game is genuinely terrifying. My pulse raced on a regular basis as I was playing it. Disturbing images throughout as well. And the boss at the end is spectacular. I found the ending to be anti-climactic, but it doesn’t detract from the game very much. By the time you get to the boss, you’ve seen it all anyway, so what else do you expect, right? I found it to be a perfect balance of story, gameplay, and puzzle solving. The profanity was very excessive, however, and that’s why I only gave it 4 stars instead of 5. I know it’s prison, but come on, game designers. Kids are playing these games whether the Mature rating is on there or not. We all know what cursing sounds like, and I really don’t need to hear the “f” word and the “c” word over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over (I’m not exaggerating here, dear reader. The profanity is a constant stream throughout the game. It never lets up. I found it extremely juvenile of the designers to include so much of it. It reminds me of a bunch of junior high boys who have just started getting bold enough to cuss around their friends.) If you can tolerate the language.
