The graphics in this are sublime and the story is just as great. This is very innovative since a different approach is taken to the HUD. Instead of it always being visible and serving as encumbrance, it only appears every time you are hit and your life bars are little white boxes.

You can also go melee in this game and punch people as well as use a shiv (knife) and, it's just really cool. You have to play it to believe it. There are also special features within the game where you can listen to the director give his thoughts and views about the game and explain some of the production tasks. You also get to unlock conceptual art.

This is worth it. A great gift!

  It doesn't work

I brought this product believing the disk was factory made. it looked like a burned DVD-Rom. I tried loading it on my computer 5x and continued to get wrong disk error. Load original disk. I thought it was my computer and sent it back. Communication was poor at best through the process. They came back with an angry and threatening attitude when I merely said it was not working. So I asked for it return after they said it worked perfectly. I have since tried it on 3 other computers and I still get the same error. It doesn't work. I just wanted a working game. Nothing more. I am trying to get help form VU games but it's not looking good right now. if it doesn't work for you. Just get a refund. Because if you don't you'l be like me, with money down the drain for a non-working game. If it works then you will have a good game. I see they have about a 3% fail rate. They are forgetful about the first rule of salesmenship. The customer is always right and treat theme with respect. I did and I lost. I wish they did the same for me.

That game might be 5 years old, the graphics still kick ass and I've discovered a new type of gameplay you don't come around often (first of a knid ?) : a mix of FPS with a quest twist, add it a hand-to-hand combat with surprise punch, you got yourself a winning! The kind of game you want to take your time playing, so it won't finish too fast...

Looks like this game has a lot of potential. I enjoyed the little time I have played it thus far. Can't wait to play it some more.

I don't normally like first-person-shooters. I got bored with Halo after about 10 minutes. Similar games affected me the same way. But there's something about Riddick. Maybe it's the eyeshine. Maybe it's the setting of the game. Maybe it's the versatility in the ways you can take people out. Maybe it's just because I'm a big Riddick fan (though it took me years to finally decide to get this game). I don't know. But I've only had this game about a month and I've already played it over and over and over. And lest you think I'm some adolescent male who's just into muscle-bound death machines, I'm a 36-year-old mother of 3 daughters (though Riddick is definitely one HOT muscle-bound death machine)!

Some people have complained that the game is too short. I do have to agree with that. The game needs to be longer and a little tougher to beat, though apparently the upcoming release of Dark Athena will at least solve the length issue. But all in all, I really loved this game, which is saying a lot since it's really not my usual style.

  Experience The Chronicles of Riddick

This game is pretty good sticking to the movies, if you're into that kind of thing. I bought this game because I love the movies and Vin Diesel isn't bad either. The graphics are not state of the art, but it was made a few years ago when Windows Vista did not exist.

There is a problem with the initial game itself; it seems to be missing OpenGl v. 1.5 and a patch needed to run it. A free version of OpenGl can be found on-line by just typing it in a search engine such as google. The patch was harder to find, but that too can be found at Yahoo Games for download, but get the english version; the european version does not seem to agree with the actual game.

Also, Sierra and Vivendi Games do not have any technical support for this game because it is, once again, kind of old. So don't expect any help from the makers, but it is worth the time and money if you are willing to put up with some technical bugs. Other than that, have fun!
