The game is fully tested & guaranteed to work. It’s the cartridge / disc only unless otherwise specified.
Knowing who you can trust is the difference between living and dying. Dropped into the frozen wastelands of Antarctica, you’re the leader of a military rescue team sent to investigate the mysterious death of an American scientific expedition. In the punishing wind and cold, your team encounters a strange, shape-shifting alien life form that assumes the appearance of the people it kills. As the team leader, you must forget everything you ever learned about obliterating aliens simply with a barrage of violent ammunition–this monster is difficult to see, hard to kill, and seemingly impossible to evade. click here

I’ve played a lot of games in my time, and this is the first game I’ve ever played that actually shocked me. I mean, serious spine twitching shocked. I’m very impressed. The atmosphere of paranoia and mistrust is bolstered by the fact that the squadmate that amiably chats your ear off may actually be an alien monster in disguise… or they might think that YOU are…After all, when your adversary can take on ANY form… who can you really trust?

If you’re into the survival horror games as I am, you will LOVE this game. It’s been out for a few years now and I bought it used at one of the gaming stores locally. I’m a fan of the movie (The Thing is the greatest horror film ever) and the game doesn’t disappoint the fans. Hey, you even get Kurt Russell in a voiceover. Play it.

I’m only about 1/3 of the way through and I have to say, this is tougher than Maximo (which is really tough.) There is never a let up in intensity, my synapses literally keep firing non-stop. I may walk away from The Thing with Post Traumatic Stress disorder, but what a sense of relief & accomplishment when you complete a section. It’s the way gaming used to be before you could actually save whenever you felt like it.The game is original, extremely challenging, dark, engaging, and most of all gratifying. Graphics are solid, but not excellent, cut scenes use too much unneccesary profanity that adds little to the story.You definitely get a sense of dread and fear while you play.Highly recommended!

i saw this game that night on sci-fi. it looked very cool and intresting. So i bought it and here is my summary.1. I get the “Disc Read Error” sometimes when trying to get it going.2. IT IS EXTREAMLY TOO HARD! im at the first encounter with “The Thing” Im low on health, AND IT’S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO GET PAST HIM!3. blood test kits are useless. I would blood test one of my members, then he walks about 10 steps and then he transforms!4. The enemys that need to be burned to kill are too much trouble! riddle them with bullets until the redical turns red, then switch the weapon and burn him 1 time, he runs, he runs, and he runs again. finaly he decides to stop being a coward and attack me. i take damage, then i kill him. TOO MUCH WORK FOR 1 ENEMY!5. NOT ENOUGH HEALTH PACKS! I RARELY SEE THEM!overall, if you are REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEALY careful and you watch your enemys movements, you might get further then i do. but one thing for sure. Expect to be repeating some lvls more then twice

The first half of this game is excellent and very atmospheric, unfortunately the second half keeps it from becoming a classic and because of that it simply a mostly solid good game with some frustrating parts and a lame twist, Graphics are a little rough around the edges on PS2 but they’re decent. The blowing wind and snow looks great and so do the character models but the indoor environments can be a mixed bag.

I bought this game out of curiosity because my friend and I were talking about making a scaryish list of games to play and he said that this one was a really good one. And I’d have to agree with him, pretty awesome for a ps2 game, i used to own a ps""2 and loved it.

Based on the John Carpenter Movie, the game starts out right where the movie left off. You’re the leader of a rescue mission at the demolished site in Antarctica.The significant reason to like this game is the COMPLEXITY of it. The game can be completely different ever time you play it.There are so many options, from what weapons you give to your crew, what weapons you take away, who will trust you, who won’t trust you, or why they will trust you, and who might just lose it, and go postal on ya and start shooting everyone in sight! It’s an amazing conglomeration of leadership choices, survival skills, and quick reflexes. And the possibilities are just endless. The story line is great, including bits and pieces from the original film(although, they are the voice-over actors for the game and not from the Carpenter movie). But it’s very intense, and creepy to the max. It really keeps you on your toes.The only negative I have noticed about it, involves the "controller". On one of the controller configurations, it involves the "left stick" of the dual shock controller. To "crouch" you have to depress the left stick. Unfortunately, that button is ALWAYS the one to break first on playstation controllers. So be careful when useing it. I have been through 3 controllers already, just because of that "crouch" button. So if you are a first time player to the game, go to your options screen and choose the "TYPE B" configuration for your co.

First of all, as one of the biggest John Carpenter fans (I even kind of liked Ghosts of Mars) that I know, I was both eagerly anticipating and dreading this game. I knew that there was no way for it to live up to the 1982 film, but I was hoping that it would. I am both pleased and somewhat disappointed. As a Carpenter fan I enjoyed the way that the game managed to build upon the film. You do find out who was infected at the end of the movie (was is MacReady or was it Childs) and you get to look at the spaceship that Blair (A.k.a Wilford Brimley) was building – and all of this happens in the playable prologue in a visit to the site of the original film. The nice mood that the game builds up in this prologue (and trust me, its really creepy) eventually winds down into a rather average first person shooter. Now, as a fan of both half-life AND all of the resident evil games (yes, even survivor!) I like first person shooters as much as I like survival horror games – but this ends up being almost too much of the former. While much has been said here about all of the great aspects of this game, little has been said about what just doesn’t quite work. Yes, the whole trust aspect of the game is interesting – but there are problems. Certain squad members only follow you so far during levels before they change into a version of the thing and attack you (i.e. they will change just before you fight a boss – they won’t go any further – so whether you kill them when they are a thing or sav.

… but really well done. This game is a direct sequel to the 1982 Kurt Russel Film.Pro’s:The game is basically another game in the ‘survival-horror’ genre that games like Resident Evil, Dino Crisis, and Silent Hill popularized. However I thought there were a few really nice additions to this game.*Use of non-playing characters*need for constant awareness of exposure to the elements*Less need to conserve EVERY SHOT of ammo. You can’t exactly go on a DOOM style free-for-all, but it’s not like Resident Evil where you’re counting every single round of ammo either.*The idea for the use of blood tests to identify infected characters*Use of the Stress meterCon’s:*They flubbed the use of the blood tests. Sometimes I’ll test a non-playing character, he’ll register as human only to break out a minute later anyway. The results of the test don’t seem to have any bearing at all, wether or not you keep a character you don’t absolutely need seems totally random.*Characters you absolutely have to have to move forward in the game, don’t seem to break out. Unless maybe I just had exceptionally good luck …*In regard to the game sound, I noticed a few times that I couldn’t hear enemy gunfire, that got very annoying toward the end of the game.*At the VERY end of the game, I thought you went a little too long without being able to save.*I never actually HAD to hold a gun to any of my characters heads to get them to trust me, careful use of your resources (which Resident Evil should have t.

This game draws you in… It has great cinematic sequences, and they aren’t too long like other games so you can jump right into without having to know a lengthy pre-plot.This game is violent! But it’s not gore for the sake of gore. It’s gore for the sake of realism.It is incredible mix of a storyline game, suspense, first person shooter, strategy and more.The fact that you have to be aware of your teammates at all times makes this a revolutionary game and adds to the realism.I usually don’t like movie adaption games, and I haven’t seen this movie, so I was hesitant to play it. But even without knowing much about the story beforehand I think it has an excellent plot, graphics and music. This is a must-buy.

I’m a huge fan of John Carpenter and The Thing, original and prequel. I’ve bought this game 2/3 times in my life, back then I struggled with the difficulty and controls. After playing Bloodborne I decided to go back and pick this sucker up for a few bucks. It’s a great attribute to the series, it adds a whole other side they could not recreate in a movie. The only real downside is the controls, it operates like the old GTAs where you had to turn your whole character to aim. If they were to fully recreate this I think it would do great, I can really see the Deadspace environment and lighting effects in something like this.

“The Thing” takes the video-gaming world into a new dimension. Consider one of the best games of the new century, as it contains aspects of the video games we all love and new aspects which will leave one speechless. It is an adventure game unlike any other, for its orginality, complexity, outstanding visuals, and fantastic gameplay. The most intersting and innovative part about this game is the Trust Meter concept. The object of the game is for you and your squad to complete missions, which each memeber responsible for different tasks. As the game moves on you are drawn in by the emotions each memer feels. In this game the characters seem like real humans as they express themselves emotionally (as well as visually) as they begin to lose mental stability. These humans also become skeptical of you as well, this is where you must earn their trust so you can ultimately win the game and avoid being attacked by your own team. This is the most exciting, complex, challening, and original part of the game that sets it apart from its predecessors. The graphics are amazing as well in combiantion with the gameplay. As you are stuck in the freezing Artic…searching for the surviving members of your team, you embark in an almost too realistic experience of the Artic. The creatures, your nemisis, put you on the edge of the seat as you can be amazed by seeing infected humans morph into the Thing. As you go along through heavy and empowering gun play, you also get to blow a lot.
