There are things! horrible things that should not exist.
Saw the videogame is with out doubt one of them.



What could be wrong with a saw videogame you ask. Well lets begin with the 5 key signs it wont be enjoyable.


1. its made to be released at the same time as the sixth film. So its a movie tie in of a film series not deemed suitable for games till past its fifth iteration. Now film tie-in does not mean terrible there was a time in my younger years where things were still out of my reach where film tie-ins were great fantastic however the problems seemed to surface around the time 3D came into play.


2. Its a puzzle game. Now puzzle games are by all in all fantastic and a great way to whittle away the time. The problem here is its a series of Timed puzzles. Now the inclusion of the timer is going to make puzzles either stupidly easy with mash this to win unequally hard and its something rarely balanced right.


3. Content. WHAT CONTENT!!! its like a CSI game. Whoops been done already. The point of Saw was that each version seemed to tell 3 interlinked stories. So why pick One when none of them would make a good videogame. Unless you do the serial killing a bit like Evil genius that could work.


4."Because we have leadership in the survival horror genre, we're passionate about it and wanted to find another property on par with 'Silent Hill," explained David Daniels, director of marketing for Konami. This guy is reason 4. David here does not seem to grasp the genre of what the saw game should be. It is in no way a survival horror game and likening it to Silent hill is the out the arse manner of speaking that's going to send this shooting down the tubes to the waste bins.


5. They should have made a game about this guy.
At least it would be entertaining.

Miniboss out.
