Deadly Premonition (aka Rainy Woods) is a $20 title that, admittedly, is not for everyone. Deadly Premonition blends familiar gameplay mechanics from Silent Hill, Resident Evil and Grand Theft Auto and presents it in a manner befitting David Lynch. With a cast of over 30 characters who are all suspects to the murder of a young girl, a lead character who loves to talk about 80s movies and music with someone named "Zach" (think Special Agent Dale Cooper's "Diane"), catchy and inappropriately timed music and an engaging mystery that kept me on the edge of my seat, Deadly Premonition is a surprisingly fun title.
It may not be the prettiest game out there and there are some nagging control issues, but that shouldn't turn you away from this quirky, surreal game. I would love to see the GB crew do an Endurance Run with this :)
