The X-Box version was great, so I can only imagine the PC one will be too

Console ports on the PC are nearly always far inferior to their console counter-parts.

Moved, dunno why you thought you'd put it in the HL2 section.
Excellent Xbox game, but "riddick"ulously short - barely 8 hours.

I played on xbox and I recomend it
but I will give some datails of it
pro:graphics very good,very entertaiment to play cuz is not so repetitive as you maybe will think,it hav that feeling of deep history that other games like HL1 hav
cont:can be very short and very easy
but still is a good game
I'll give an even more detailed view:
Combat A.I is almost at par with that of HL2, so if you didn't like HL2's A.I. or thought it was too easy - then you'll find CHR easy too. It is also generally an easy game - in terms of general objectives you are supposed to do.
Stealth A.I. is perfect (of enemies)
Brilliant graphics. nuff' said.
Excellent Weapon sounds, nice musical score. Vin Diesel is PERFECT for Riddick.
Stealth mechanics may seem odd to some - may seem amazing to others. 3rd person camera switching when climbing may also feel odd at times.
Good characters and story - no generic NPC syndrome here.
Cool weapons.
Cool animations (in First-person).

Hope they dont screw up the PC port. This could really put swedish developers on the map!

Hmm...$30?! I'm surely picking this up for PC.
Even though I already have the Xbox version too, FPS's play best on the PC.
If only it had multiplay. :(
I might pick it up after all, thought the game would go for atleast $40 which turned me off since I heard it is so short.

I'll keep an eye out for the reviews on this one.
I enjoyed the Xbox version alot but it isn't a game that i really want to own.

yes is easy and simple,but if harder mode can be a lot harder,and if you dont like easy I think you will still like it cuz is a very enjoyment game,when I finished for the fisrt time I get a feeling of satisfaction
the AI is good and can be anyoing especially cuz they dont let in peace,and stealth AI if you meang how they act when you are in stealth is very good,if they see atleast 1 bit of you they will track you down and will be hard to escape of they cuz they always inestigate and is hard to hide
the graphics are better that doom3 IMO
the sounds of the weapons and the desing are vey cool,I didnt care too much about music,and vin diesel is cool fo the role of riddick
the 3rd switch are nice cuz IMO is sometimes is a bit frustating be in 1rst person everytime
the stoyline is like of a clasic sci-fi action movie,it hav the same deep feeling of HL
Actually - the graphics are not at par with Doom 3 - at least the xbox version. There were muddy textures - and blurriness. Also, that algorithm to lower down texture detail to give bearable framerates in intense fights.
But, I have no doubt, that it will be better than D3 on PC, given the hardware.
