Could have been a potential success.
This game was nothing special. For its time there were definitely better titles from which to choose than this (hope I don't offend anyone)piece of crap. The game itself had some positive points, in particular the 'why s... Read Full Review

Wicked Sexy Thing!
I love my horror games, so I'm very demanding when It comes to being critical over minor details. Being a big fan of the movie I was eager to enjoy this adaption, and thankfully it's been pulled off beautifully. The ga... Read Full Review

This complete slap in the face made me wish I didn't lose my receipt.
Lets get one thing straight. I love The THING. Specifically I love the movie: The THING. For a grade B sci-fi horror it is wonderful. It has tension, it has gore, it has character development, it has immersion, it has su... Read Full Review

A great game based on a great movie.
I must admit, when I first heard that John Carpenter's classic, The Thing, had a video game, I wasn't very excited. There aren't to many good games based on movies out there, and I sure didn't expect that The Thing would... Read Full Review

An average shooter that delivers nothing to the genre
The Thing was one of those horror titles you seldom hear about, and for a good reason. Being a horror aficionado, this game was on my wanted list for a very long time. After picking up a used copy for 5 bucks, I couldn't... Read Full Review

Fun if you watched the movie, pretty boring if you haven't
Although my Review deck pretty much sums it up let me go into detail here. Graphics- Not bad considering how old it is. The lighting is still very top notch stuff. Although a face lift wouldn't hurt Audio-Very atmosph... Read Full Review
