The editors didn't like
Gameplay
Combat and platforming are all lacking
The 7hour campaign is short lived and not interesting enough to want to play through
Stagnant plot
No real reason for players to keep playing after an hour
Some technical glitches hurt the experience
The game is over in 8 hours or so
And there is little reason to play through again
Some of the humor falls flat
The levels can begin to feel repetitive in places
Scan
Fight
Jump
Repeat
Touchy movement controls
Camera is too zoomed in at times.
Slightly repetitive gameplay.
Simple platforming and combat hold it back from being a truly great action title
Sloppy camera system
Very frequent texture popins
The story’s culmination doesn’t live up to its presentation.
It’s difficult to explore and look for orbs since Monkey can die if he wanders too far from Trip
You can’t lock-on to enemies
It’s short and sometimes its difficult to see the shimmering items Monkey can climb on. Subtitles are very difficult to read.

Enslaved is a definite improvement over Ninja Theory’s previous title, Heavenly Sword. Though it features that same great attention to character detail and some remarkably beautiful looking environments, it remains a bit shallow in the technical depart...

Abstract: When we think of post apocalyptic settings and locales our minds are implicitly drawn to images of barren wastelands or dilapidated cities enveloped in darkness. UK based developers Ninja Theory have approached a typically desolate portrayal of global ...
Whenever video games and the film industry collide there is usually a mess. It is rare to find a collaboration between the two great entertainment industries that truly works well. Video games usually suffer for their links to Hollywood names and so it...
Abstract: Action game Enslaved: Odyssey to the West was one of the most promising titles at this year's E3 for a number of reasons: an interesting and epic take on platforming, a dynamic combat system and an apocalyptic, mech-filled narrative based on the 16t...
It seems a little harsh to accuse Enslaved of presenting style over substance but the feeling remains nonetheless: much like Heavenly Sword before it, Enslaved is an exceptionally well produced game from Ninja Theory where gameplay takes a passenger se...
