I have just finished overclocked and it exceeded my high expectations (having played the demo).
It was suspenseful, very believable, immersive and scary, and had a fascinating storyline. It is an unusual game because when you see the video ‘flashbacks’ within it you then gain control of the character of the game within the flashback itself.  This makes you relate to the character differently while you play as you learn their viewpoint. I felt as though I had been on an incredible journey after having played it. I recommend this game strongly.

Arr - There are no dead-ends and you cannot die in this game. This is a beautiful game. You can buy this game at Walmart.

Could someone please tell me if there are any dead-ends or if you can die in this game?
It wasn’t mentioned in the article which otherwise was very informative.

This is a promising game. I’ve read the good reviews but unfortunately I cannot play this game as the game does not support the following video card:

Mobile Intel(R) 945GM Express Chipset Family

Toshiba, HP, Compaq, Dell, Sony users with the Intel 945GM Express Chipset should be aware that Overclocked does not run on your system.
