@deckard26364: In my opinion: The combat was dreadful, the graphics subpar, and the design of 'The Thing' was lackluster. The acting and audio were incredibly corny, and the game failed to deliver any scares. It had an overall low-budget feel and felt really dated even at launch.

When this was released, I was an absolutely massive fan of The Thing and eager to try new games on my Xbox. Despite my excitement, I couldn't bring myself to play it through to completion. During a time when I replayed the few games I owned endlessly, The Thing was one of the rare titles I bought at launch for full price but never finished. It remained, for a long time, the most disappointing game release I had ever experienced.

Bought one movie on Steam a couple of years ago. The experience was subpar. Never felt like they even tried to make this feature good.

Making changes to appease a crowd that doesn't play the games. yay.

@hotkoolaid The Thing rocks! I just finished the novella "Who Goes There?" the movie was based on. It was a great, creepy Halloween-read. Recommended for all fans of the movie. :)

@Duttyhandz: Huh. I didn't know that. Thx! :)

@SovietsUnited: Me too. I was expecting a good to ok game, but 3/10? That's just unfortunate... Skate- and snowboard games just aren't what they used to be.
