 nice for fans… pointless to everyone else
By M. Randall
this game is probably what you expect. it takes place in the confines of an abandoned building and feels and plays much like the movies. a nice plus is that this game is not reused story from the movies.. its all brand new. which almost makes it feel like another saw movie at times (like we need more) but it does get repetetive after while when you encounter the same sorts of puzzles again and again. having tobin bell’s voice all through the game makes it much more likable. the combat system is pretty horrid but luckily its not a fighting game so it won’t happen that often. all in all i liked the game but once you beat it, there is no point ever playing it again. the first run through will earn you every achievement so replay value is zero. this game was a nice treat for fans but i don’t see a point in making a sequel… then again look at the movies.. uh oh

 SAWvival horror
By S. Zaitz
when i bought this game..i gritted my teeth at the counter when i purchased it, i was actually feeling a little embarrased that i was buying a game based on a movie..which we all know 95% are terrible..BUT…i was surprised to find out..it is one of the better games made from a movie..there are plenty of flaws yes…the combat ..the lighting..(hard to see at times)..repetitive puzzles..BUT..i couldnt stop playing, it was fun..addictive..i wanted to see what happened next..the other reviews explained this game rather well..ill cut it short and say, if you like saw movies and if you like survival horror, silent hill type games,you will enjoy it..the ending was cool..passing grade from what i expected..

A decent movie based game?
By Sam Armstrong
Let me start off by saying that I am only about an hour into the game, but have so far been pleasantly surprised!The controls are very good and the puzzles are interesting (if not a little bit simple at times, mind you I started on the easiest level…there are only two). What surprised me the most was the fact that the game is not simply puzzled based but rather includes a bit of platforming and combat.As far as the games relationship to the movies, it has the same gritty feel and sense of urgency (when it comes to the traps and devices) that the films have. So far I am loving it!
