CRGR: AMY

Not exactly a planned video, but I just HAD to share my opinion on AMY (a classic survival horror unfortunately slapped with the "outdated" tag) and a little bit about critics.

Check out Vigaku86's awesome AMY Playthrough videos for an idea of what the game is about & how it plays: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsSqBc2F0IY&list=UUSk2sE-aMZKNrQw519WBPiQ&...

I hope you enjoy the review, thank you for watching!

Side note - there were no tracks from the AMY score available for download, so I used pieces from other horror OST's I purchased. These are (in the order they appear):

1. Crazy Cop - Forbidden Siren
2. Tears Of... - Silent Hill
3. Karuwari II - Forbidden Siren
4. Room of Angel - Silent Hill 4 The Room

You've cleared up and explained a lot of the concerns and questions I had about this game. I didn't even notice until the video was over that you were talking for 15 minutes, every minute was interesting. Great review!

@cherubicwindigo I'm glad I could shed some light on the game :)

Thank you so much for watching and commenting, I'm glad my fifteen minute rant didn't FEEL like a fifteen minute rant lol cause I love to ramble!

Thanks again :D

Great review. I was looking forward to this game for months because I myself am a classic survival horror junkie.

@kopack02 Here's to being classic survival horror junkies *raises a glass*

Thanks for watching and commenting, I'm glad you enjoyed the review :)

I learned to not even read the reviews from gaming sites. All the games I played that you recommended were great, I might have to get this one too. :)

I'm a big fan of old school survival horror games and am longing for better games to boost the genre. But this game simply isn't one. It's awful.

Also I think the idea of trophy hunting brings in a lot of people that aren't sticking to their kind of games. As a survival horror game, it's obviously going to be very different then from what a casual gamer thinks about it, due to the trophies, they'll check it out, not understand it and ultimately not like it. Definitely right, it takes a certain crowd to enjoy this game fully. Does not deserve the bad reviews it got at all. I hope there is more AMY to come.

You actually gave a good review of the game, I thought it was a very good game, it put me in the mood for old school survival horror, specifically Fatal Frame. But you actually have a review, instead of "this game sucks, it was hard, I was frustrated", so props for saying it how it is. Hard was about the same as normal, especially once you figure everything out, it's not that bad. I love survival horror and this game delivered, it even reminded me a bit of siren, original siren.

I played the first couple of chapters and didn't like it so I'll point out some things that annoyed me. How long was the woman knocked out in the train? Society collapsed very quickly. How did Amy get into the bathroom with all the crates in the doorway? The climbing down a ladder animation is painfully slow.

I'm happy to see a positive review though. I make up my own mind about games and I'm glad you do too.

@BioHRay I totally agree with you on the power wheel. Why have so many empty space on wheel? It doesn't make sense.

[benthao1210]

Oh goodness I love your personality! I agree totally with your review! I do feel that AMY deserves a better score. And you're a Siren fan! Have you play Forbidden Siren: Blood Curse on the PS3?

''Bitey individuals...'' LOL

Awesome review by the way!

[awesomemusicandgames]

Great review! =) i was interested in this game before release. I bought it and right now I'm at chapter 3. and i really enjoy it!

[BioHRay]

I very much agree with your take on this game. I've played it through 3 times (all difficulties) and would just like to add that the weapons only break easily on Normal. Hard they are only a little worse than easy (in terms of number of hits to when it breaks). and in my opinion, the game felt like it was meant to be a full retail game that was cut down, the fact that you only get 2 powers on a wheel that allows for 8, is one of my big reasons for saying that. But a good game over all.
