Those who are willing to put up with the game's numerous flaws will be greatly rewarded.

This is a review for the Deadly Premonition Director's Cut for the PS3. I also reviewed the original X360 version, and everything I have said previously still stands here. This version of the game fix… Read more

An emotional roller coaster that sucks you in.

Deadly Premonition at first glance looks like an awful game. The graphics are dated, the sound effects are hilariously bad, and the 'walking tank' controls are clunky. The rational person inside of me… Read more

A flawed gem

There is a reason why Deadly Premonition is one of the most polarizing games of all time. People either like it, and endure it through to the end, or they cant stand it and wonder why people like it a… Read more

This game is great, right Zach?

These days when a retail game comes out for twenty dollars, odds are it is not a good game. Deadly Premonition is a diamond in the rough, it may look like shit but man it is a great game. You play as… Read more

Play this game.

If you are a graphics junkie move along now. If you need constant action on the screen, once again go on to the next game. The only other negative is the camera sometimes get in the way but other than… Read more

A unique gaming experience that must be seen to be believed

There are no words descriptive enough to convey the sheer lunacy of the game I am about to review. Suffice to say that if you find yourself sat at your kitchen table crying into an un-stirred cup of c… Read more

The theatre of the absurd.

With the advent of the European release on the horizon, I feel it's worth creating a review, albeit a more esoteric one, if only to answer the naysayers and doubters who criticise the game. Whilst the… Read more

XBOX 360 Review: Deadly Premonition

Games like film are highly subjective. There are going to be some games that people love and some games that people despise to their very cores. Deadly Premonition, a horror/thriller themed open-world… Read more

My sanity is out the window!!

Yes sir....I acknowledge the fact that all my logic is gone and my 'Cup Of Serenity' has spilled over. Yes sir...I LOVE THIS GAME. Let us chant for a minute and behold the way we look past the technol… Read more

“I think they want us to review the game, Zach.”

“What should we tell them about first, Zach? Oh I know! In our game, Deadly Premonition, the main goal is to follow the trail of murder that has led us to Greenvale, the small town full of people who… Read more

A one of a kind of experience wouldn't you say Zach?

At first glance Deadly Premonition appears to be just another budget Resident Evil 4-5 clone, but upon closer inspection this game offers more charm and laughs than any other game this generation. Dea… Read more

PROS: -an unforgettable experience -amazing atmosphere -well developed and memorable characters -great narrative -very ambitious -great voice acting -comical and weird but never to the point where it… Read more

Sometimes the best thing is in the place you lest expect

We now live in a world full of games with multi-million doller budgets (not unlike their movie cousins), hype machines and massive amounts of product placements. It is truely a rare event for a supris… Read more

The Deadly Premonition Effect

Good Great story. Characters. Music. Low budget in a good way. Bad Controls. Gameplay. Low budget in a bad way. As I am writing this review I can easily think to myself what it is about the game that… Read more

Deadly Premoniton: Highly Flawed, Yet Highly Loveable

For a game with a development cycle as long as Deadly Premonition's, it doesn't necessarily have a lot of excuses for being what it is. Jankiness in most every department is typically the name of the… Read more

Look Zach, A Deadly Premonition Review

Deadly Premonition isn't the best game sure, but it's got its own amount of quirks and oddities that will make you either hate it, or love it. While I was trying to think of how to describe it to a fr… Read more

Great game. Don't you think so, Zach?

Having only more recently purchased an Xbox 360, I suppose that I find it interesting that one of my favorite games for the console thus far, Deadly Premonition , lacks a lot of what seems to define A… Read more

Spoiler free review: Deadly Premonition

I was on the fence about getting Deadly Premonition, I hadn't heard anything about it, in fact no one I knew had heard about it. However every time I walked around my local game store something just s… Read more

$100 of Crazy

Deadly Premonition is a bizarre title in many ways. First its price $20. Now that does not happen often. But once you look at the game in action, the price starts making (some) sense. The Graphics, vo… Read more

Well worth the price of admission

When I first saw trailers for Deadly Premonition, I was quite intrigued (I love adventure and survival horror games)-so I was going to get this game regardless price or quality (there are so few games… Read more

A surprisingly engaging, Twin Peaks style romp

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 an… Read more
