I'd been looking forward to this for ages.... and the reviews are now in.

Apparently it's not very good at all

Yeah, I actually thought about buying it yesterday but then on twitter all the embargo-hampered reviewers were finding ways to hint that it wouldn't be a good idea to buy it before reading reviews....

Whoa, 2.5 from Destructoid, that's bad....

I think I'll have to give Dead Space another go. I got 1 and 2 on a stupidly low price deal on Steam a while back and played a bit of the first one but got really confused with the over the shoulder camera. But it gets high praise for its horror and tension, something Colonial Marines seems to have failed to do, so maybe it's worth another go....

what a shame it should have been awesome

starts off really well http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWlW4rbq030 "You aren't in Kansas anymore"
