I picked this game up the day it came out. Sadly, I was moving at the time and didn't have much time to play. Once I got myself all moved, I began playing, but then school started. Woe is me! Anyway, I've begun playing more regularly lately, and I've got to say - what a great game. My only question is, why do the cutscenes look so awful when the rest of the game is so pretty? It's like they tried so hard on the in-game graphics that they just decided to poop out the cutscenes in a couple days. The models are terrible, the animation is terrible, and the voice acting is mediocre at best. It's depressing, because the game is otherwise entirely enthralling and sucks you in with its awesome graphics, music, and atmosphere.

The cutscenes are no deal-breaker - you should still buy and play this game. I just found it curious.
