Description:

• good timing, every sound appears when you want them to.
• The setting is an underwater city, from time to time you will hear sounds of water trying to burst/break/slide/slip/flow into the city. You will often hear the sounds of dripping water, flowing water with or without an echo, depending on what surrounding it's in.
• Every object/character/floor etc, has his own shape and structure and surface, in this game you will hear all those differences, every sound is unique.
• The old Art Deco feeling of the years 1900 till 1940's is completely merged into this game and gives the game a deeper level of immersion.
• Old radios and record players play like they haven't been played on for years, they tend to get stuck some of the times because of their age.
• You can hear the old hollow and scratchy sound of jazz songs of the early 20's and such.
• All the voices talk like they're really from those times, with their own vocabulary.
• If you save a little sister you will hear a sound like its beamed straight down from heaven to your ears, like you're doing the ultimate good thing.
• Every sound sounds different in every other surrounding and has a different sound effect. This makes me think the game is even more believable.

Game Title: Halo

Description: – The voices of the aliens are not believable. They're too high and they sound to stupid. When an alien race invades the earth I believe them to be dangerous and cunning, these voices are nothing like it.

• Also the voices of the aliens do not even sound slightly scary. This disrupts the gameplay because I do not see them as a threat. Most of the times I'll just stand before them and shoot while I stand still while I should be running all over the place.
• The voices of the aliens are more funny or corny then scary, this gives me a ridiculous feeling about the game which tends me to quit earlier then normally.
• Aliens talking english? No alien talks english not even if they encountered the human kind before…
• Nearly no sound or music, which kicks down the immersion of the game incredibly.
• Because of some lack in the gameplay I wasn't grabbed by the game, and the lack of the music didn't really help…
