2.0 out of 5 stars Left me feeling cheated, Jan 1 2013
Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars 
Was really looking forward to this game but was very disappointed. The game was extremely short and lacked the fun and personality I've come to expect from a R&C game. It took me just a few hours to complete and there were only 4 short worlds. The game play was repetitive and it was a pain to continually have to babysit the base. What a let down.

1.0 out of 5 stars What a nose dive!, April 14 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I really enjoyed season 1 and season 2 of Saving Grace but I found season 3 to be an incoherent mess! The plot stopped making any sense what so ever. The characters began acting completely out of character and the season ender left me saying "huh?". Don't waste your money. Just ejoy the first two seasons and pretend season 3 didn't exist. I wish I had.

1.0 out of 5 stars OK I've had it., July 1 2010
I was a big fan and kept reading because I kept hoping that LKH would get a good therapist to help her deal with her personal sexual frustrations and get back to writing the stories of the characters she created. Nope. Not going to happen. Each Anita book seems to sink to a new low with total lack of substance and plot. Even worse, LKH seems to be determined to destroy each beloved character piece by piece. She seems to have few tools in her writing tool box: no plot? Insert new power and new sex partner here! Shoddy editing does these books no favours. I've read interviews where the author says she doesn't care what the readers think about the direction her series has taken. It may be her right to write garbage but it's my perogative not to buy it. See you in the bargain bin, Anita. I'm done.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another one brought down in its prime, Feb 15 2010

What an amazing series. The writing was excellent, the setting pervasive and the characters compelling. Why is it that series of this calliber never survive? HBO seems to be notorious for taking chances and then not truly committing to the long term sucess of their innovative series. What a shame.
