Learn to overlook shit! But then, I'm OVERLY forgiving about flaws. That's not much better. I don’t like how he says he “shouldn’t like it” because it has a few minor flaws. Learn to overlook shit!

Of course, it doesn't help that I'm a rabid Lovecraft fan. Man was a genius. It's sad that most people today don't understand him at all (thank you, mostly worthless modern literature), or consider Poe or (even worse) Stephen King to be better horror authors (since neither one of them ever wrote anything that could even remotely be considered horror - mystery thrillers, sure, but horror, no). I felt this game really did his terrifying creatures justice. Yeah, the controls were kinda sucky (I played it on PC), but it didn't really deter me, and some of the things you saw that would make you insane were just wonderfully creepy. Cthulhu for president! Another great game in the Cthulhu mythos is Sherlock Holmes: The Awakaned. Yes, Sherlock Holmes vs Cthulhu. It's truly epic (but then again, so were Lovecraft's stories, they were practically the pinnacle of perfect classical literature). Aw man, I really love this game.

It starts of with this level of dread that grows and grows until the horror begins and you're running for your life, facing greater and greater horrors. I'm not a fan of Lovecraft, but this game brought his creations to life in a way that I feel no movie has or can. CoC is one of my favorites, one that has really good pacing for a video game.
