  Not as satisfying as Butcher Bay
Review created: 07/09/09

1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

In 2004, a game came out of nowhere that pretty much astounded most of the people that played it. The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay was an amazing game that blended stealth, gunfights, and gruesome kills all in one package. One of the most amazing things about this game is that it had 2 choices for every situation, you could either A) Run in guns blazing or B) Shoot out the lights and take out the guards one by one with satisfying stealth kills.
Well, Good news is that Assault on Dark Athena has this game bundled with it (and with updated graphics), as well as a new chapter. I played through Butcher Bay, and needless to say, it was an amazing game and I enjoyed every second of it.
However, Assault on Dark Athena was less satisfying than it's predecessor. The game starts out on a ship (Dark Athena) and it has that classic "shoot out the lights and kill everyone" feel, but it soon becomes replaced by "I can only withstand several gunshots, and I can't sneak around in this area that"s full of people." That's the problem with this game, Riddick feels too much like a weakling, yet you can't do what you're supposed to. Especially toward the end of the game, you are stuck running around in mid-day with no shadows around, while being chased by several people. It doesn't feel right for the game.
Now it might have seemed like I just bashed the game, which I did, but don't get me wrong. It was an enjoyable game, and if you haven't played the original 2004 game then feel free to go enjoy this package, and think of Assault on Dark Athena simply as a bonus package. I mean this game retails for 60 bucks, and you can easily get it for less than half price which is completely worth it.

I ranked this in my top ten. I played it 3 times. I love that its butchers bay and da combined. I've never been into games based on movies, but this game has made me rethink that. Graphics are awesome, great combat moves, steath moves rock. There is nothing about this game I didn't like.

Once again you take on the role of Richard B Riddick. The dark gritty world of a killer on the run from mercs. I like how they kept the same feel as the older game (escape from butcher bay) which is also included in this game, so you can play both. I the only this I didn't like is what is was short game play. In less then 2 days you can solve it. All in all I would call it a good game, worth getting as it included both versions. There is some replay value on different difficulties. Haven't tried the multilayer as of yet but it should be good as well.

  Not Bad
Review created: 08/04/09
by:

the game was over all pretty good. their were a few things that i though could have been fixed though. for example the load times imbetween parts of a level are rediculous they made me feel like i was playing the original playstation or something, also anything other than playing easy on the difficulty was rediculously hard when i got to any bosses. the game was fun, and it is a good deal because you get both game for a some what fair price. its definatly worth 25 or 30 dollars

enjoy..

  the chronicles of riddick: assault on dark athena
Review created: 07/23/09

its a lot of fun just like the first one. the only thing wrong with it is the same thing that the first one suffered from, their both just to damn short. its a quick game but its a lot of fun. i happen to also think they have good playback value, its a game you can replay multiple times spread out of course.

Great single player experience just like the original xbox title. Multiplayer seemed like a side note and fell way short

  Excellent game
Review created: 07/06/09

The game is unbeleiveble, I've done the first part couple years ago and liked it a lot, so when this came out I had to get it. Game experience is great, it's more stealth than action and it makes it interesting. I think it's a great game, hope you enjoy it. Thanks

  Why I bought this game on eBay:The Chronicles of Riddic
Review created: 07/03/09
0 of 1 people found this review helpful.

I was very interested when i saw The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena (Xbox 360)for such a low "BUY IT NOW" price with"FREE" overseas shipping . I sent the seller a question and they replied swiftly. Everything seemed great!!! then ..i waited. Close to a month passed by and still no game in my mailbox. I looked at their feedback profile and to my dismay they were recentley riddled with "NEGATIVE FEEDBACK' with buyers of the same problem. I filed a PayPal dispute and i'm still waiting on a response. These are the scams that ruin eBay

  Want a new PlayStation 3?
Review created: 06/28/09

Get one for FREE!!! Have a look at this video first:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFKYVE__Mug

Just take 2 minutes and read this. This is very EASY to do! It literally
takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I promise you,
this is 100% real. I will answer you on any question! Here is what you
do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is
the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete
the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do).This
is not like other sites where you need to complete one offer on 2 or 3
different pages!!! And a lot of these offers are FREE trials with
nothing else to buy...No commitments!!!

There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster
online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would
regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use
them to get a free PS3 System or cash (I did the Stamps.com for a 30 day
free trial and it never cost me a penny and I received credit for it the
same day). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you.
After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 8-13 people
(depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link
(just post the same thing as I have on eBay, and you'll get your
referrals before the auction even ends.)

Then they will ship your PS3 System or your selected item for free, I
chose the PS3 80gb System. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these
companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all
the referrals. All you have to do is post it ! They use us as
advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money which goes
toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as
Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you
want. You must use your own authentic link though. You will get your own
personal link after your orders placed.



Step 1: Click this link http:
http://www.YourPS34free.com/index.php?ref=5452229

Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and
best).

Step 3: Complete just 1 offer (like Blockbuster or Stamps.com) and refer
up to 13 people to do the same (use eBay! Do what I did, copy my ad).

Step 4: Receive your PS3 System for FREE!!!!!!!!!! (Even The Shipping Is
Free!!!)


For proof that this is for real, click on the link below. It's the
company that is behind everything.

http://www.trainn.org/reviews.php

If you have any questions feel free to message me!! I'll Respond ASAP.
If you want hints/tips about the whole process, I'd be happy to fill you
in.

Please take advantage of this offer!!!

  Chronicles of Riddick: ADA
Review created: 06/14/09

Great atmosphere, fun battle sequences, but the ending disappointed me. In comparison to the epic ending of Chronicles of Riddick: EFBB, ADA's ending seemed short and left me waiting for more - a game that was more graphics and FPS oriented than one that actually cared about a good story. Nonetheless, it was a game worth playing.

Its unusual to find a game developer that will take a movie license and create a whole new story that follows so well with the original. This is one of my favorites , give it a chance you wont be disappointed.
