I'm not sure why so many people didn't like this game; while not the greatest ever, it is a really enjoyable game with a unique story and features. Sure, its very linear; but not every game has to be open-world. Games with a strong narrative, such as Remember Me, would not work very well as an open-world game (the devs would have to impose annoying restrictions on where you go in the open-world anyway to enforce any kind of narrative). So, if you're looking for GTA or something, this isn't for you.

That said, the story is very compelling: you are a memory hunter whose memories have been stolen in a future-parisian city where memories can be traded, bought, and sold. The gameplay reminds me of something like Uncharted or Tomb Raider where you have to climb around, jumping and hanging from ledges. The fighting, which can get a little repetitive is like a not-as-good version of the fighting from the Batman: Arkham Asylum games with some sci-fi elements thrown in. However, the memory remix sequences were some of my favorite parts and something truly unique to Remember Me. Basically, you can scroll through someone's memory and make tiny alterations to change how they remember what happened; for example, you can turn the safety off on their gun and move a stool slightly, causing them to trip on the stool and the gun to accidentally fire, shooting someone else. The soundtrack is also really amazing; I sometimes listen to it while working. Graphically, the game is pretty impressive, especially the remix sequences and other memory areas, which are very stylized; especially when you use 3x1 Eyefinity :)

My only complaint with the game is that the fighting can get a little repetitive.
