    underrated

    One of the most underrated video games for the most underrated video game system ever, the sega cd. This game is a true gem that makes you feel like you are in the game and one of the few to use the full motion video notion correctly. Interactivity at its best and if only more people had played this game than its "lets censor videogaming" cousin, night trap, people may have respected the industry alot more.

    Double Switch is great

    I played this game as a child. Sega Cd had many games like this. I like this game so much I bought a Sega saturn so I could play it with a bigger screen. I can capture 120 people. If you like this game you can email me.

    Real Easy

    This was a very easy game to finish but it was still fun for a while. Even if you are a novice gamer you can still finish this one in about 2 weeks. But there was a major problem with it. There was so much footage that we never got see that involved the relationships between the characters. The plot always took over just when the voyeuristic appeal was setting in. There was never any way around this so the game almost followed the same path every single time. The 'revelation' at the end was pretty disappointing and the climax was all over too quickly. And Corey Haim must have been totally desperate for work for appearing in this.

    The Sega CD version has really crappy lo-res video too.

    I don't know what that last reviewer was smoking but I want some!

    I worked at SEGA when those god-awful SegaCD games came out. They were just dreadful. You switch around from room to room while washed up actors reluctantly read their bad lines. And the premise is always the same. you can't watch the scenes you have to memorize the sequence of going from room to room and pressing a button to release a booby trap at just the right time. Christ almighty I need prozac after just thinking about those horrid Digital Pictures games.

    My Favorite of All Time!

    I love this game! The acting is superb. R. Lee Ermey gives a stellar performance while Deborah Harry struts with true diva grace. Digital Pictures has created a masterpiece with Corey Haim giving his most engaging performance since "License To Drive." A++
