You know the deal - the internet puts you onto a game that is absolutely hailed as the next 'Citizen Kane' of gaming. A game that's new to your radar, you read impressions and they're all overwhelmingly positive and describe things that sound awesome. You eventually take the risk and buy it and then it's just a complete disappointment to the hype and what you was expecting.......
Right now, that game is 'SOMA' for me. It's not bad and I got in while in the PSN offer so I don't feel too badly burned. Went in blind as advised but just not feeling it. The robots and hiding feels tedious, the setting isn't as gripping as say Bioshock. I'll still complete it and don't think it's bad, but I was expecting more from the 80-85 metacritic score.
