The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena Comments by Dan Pearson

If they are in-game screen shots, this is already a graphically brilliant game.

It looks SO clean, sharp and well detailed.

What? Am I dreaming? The original was a 9/10 at least (yes, a bit slow at the start). But what a game, one of the very few I finished and thought "wow, this is the best game i've played in ages". The artwork and the extra features, the graphics (!) on the original xbox were seriously gorgeous, some of the best cave-wall textures I've ever seen.

The first person fighting worked quite well because you felt strong and just oozing with raw power, getting weapons here and there felt satisfying because of they also felt powerful. Sneaking worked well and ragdoll physics and hiding bodies felt important. The game was just very well done in all areas IMO. I actually started liking Vin after this, but pitch black (haven't seen it) was on the telly last night, gave it a miss since House was on another channel :).
