There are no spoilers in this. I made this as much for those who have not played it yet as for those who have. I don't swear in this, for anyone bothered by such.

The short(3 minutes) review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtRYSCHTnvI

What I say about the game was true when I last played it, and may have changed since then.

I played the game on the PC, via Steam.

I recommend you, if at all interested in such, watch footage from what I am reviewing in another tab, as this video does not feature any, and in general isn't all that visual. And yes, I realize I am being neurotically over-cautious of Fair Use.

For those who want a written, more or less the same version of this review: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2322244/reviews-9

This is made up of pure one-takers, so occasionally, I misspeak or begin a sentence without ending it.

In preparation for this video, I read reviews and the like of this on sites like MetaCritic, ThatGuyWithTheGlasses, Wiki, IMDb, GameFAQs, wikia and/or RottenTomatoes; if I restate(and/or comment on, as I may disagree with it) something someone else has said, I don't mean to pass it off as something I thought up, myself. I don't claim to come up with all the criticisms and points I make. The reason I paraphrase what others have said is that I want these videos to cover the whole subject(movie, game, etc.), not only things that I thought of myself.

This was recorded as a Google+ Hangout to improve the video quality without making the upload time much, much higher.

This is a pure one-taker, so occasionally, I misspeak or begin a sentence without ending it. If you either really prefer this approach for future videos or prefer me to edit them, *please* post your opinion, and I will see which is preferred.

As usual, any and all feedback is very welcome.
