The fundamental level design issues later in the game, combined with the eventual tedium of the combat it relies on, makes Shank a good game for a particular audience rather than a great game worthy of everyone’s attention. Fans of character action titles should pull out their virtual wallets without hesitation, but otherwise, Shank might just be too sharp to handle.

This week's Humble Weekly Bundle looks like a must-buy. You can pay what you want for Shank 2, Blocks That Matter, and BIT.TRIP RUNNER. Paying $6 or more gets you Runner 2, Fly'n, and Megabyte Punch. If you're willing to spend $10 or more, you can get King Arthur's Gold and Mark of the Ninja: Special Edition.
The newest Humble Weekly Sale just went live and it currently features three games from Klei Entertainment. For the next week, the Canadian studio’s three most well-known titles will be available for purchase at unbeatable prices.
the sit should be black listed on n4g
decent for a downloadable title although expected a bit more
I want to get this but I have a feeling within the next 2-6 months this game will be on sale for 50% off like how they did it with Battlefield 1943.
So I will resist for now.
Grabbing the demo myself right now, was really looking forward to this we shall see.
Another 3-hour game for $15.
Downloadable games are a fucking ripoff now.
