Dark Messiah - Review @ GamePro

Describing it as "broken", GamePro's review of Dark Messiah still scores 3/5:

Even without the technical problems, the game itself has issues. The story is flat and meandering while the voice acting is either mediocre or melodramatic . Also, while the combat is generally enjoyable, there are gameplay sequences (one involving a giant worm) that devolve into trial and error as you attempt to find the path the developers intended in order to avoid instant death. Moreover, things often devolve into random chaos during the multiplayer as one team slowly loses the match. All you can do to organize at that point is to send urgent (and usually ignored) text messages to your team.
