PALGN: Velvet Assassin Review

It can be argued that the stealth genre is the most endangered in the gaming world. After all, action games seem to have the requisite stealth sequence and even the one great stealth game of the generation so far, MGS4 has less of a focus on stealth. After playing Velvet Assassin, there's little compelling reason to reject this argument. While the underlying basis for the game is solid, a combination of archaic design, unpredictable and dull AI and weak mechanics make for an unnecessarily frustrating game. The emotion and artistic flair is quite hit-and-miss and made weaker by the gameplay follies. Mr Fisher and Agent 47, you gentlemen have some work to do.
