IGN: Jake Hunter: Detective Chronicles Review

Jake Hunter is a decent way to kill a few hours, but there wasn't enough effort put into it to really stand out. It lacks personality. Jake is a stereotype, and the stories are straight forward, humorless affairs. Still, IGN played through them without getting frustrated and they were just engaging enough to keep my interest. Younger gamers who like detective stories and don't need a lot of action may want to hunt down a copy.
