"It's Riddick!"
5 stars"

Ever dreamt that it would be possible to be like Riddick? Well, this game gives you an opportunity to be the most wanted criminal in the entire galaxy! With lots of sharp pointy objects to play with, it is a gaming experience like no other, and the storyline is great! Ever wondered what happend before that monster infested dark planet in Riddicks first apperance, Pitch Black? Well, this game covers a lot of ground about the past of Richard B Riddick…

"AMAZING"
4 stars"

This one surprised me. On the surface, The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena looks like your everyday first-person shooter and you'll probably think that for a little while at the beginning of the game, too, but after you play it for a little while, you won't be able to put the controller down. It could have easily been the next Xbox 360 game that everyone must own. What makes Assault on Dark Athena special is that it is actually two games in one. You get a remake of Escape from Butcher Bay that features vastly updated graphics and some tweaked gameplay segments. Assault on Dark Athena plays almost exactly the same as Butcher Bay but with some new gameplay mechanics thrown into the mixing pot to make the experience still feel undeniably fresh. Overall this is a game to own for all who played the original on the xbox and for anyone who have never played a Riddick game before. A solid 4 stars

"Good but not great."
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

First things first, this game kicks ass. Its hugely enjoyable both the updated Butchers Bay and Assault on Dark Athena. How ever the only thing I thought spoiled the expierence was the AI, but on the whole this game amazing.
