Fun (If Flawed) Sixth Gen Horror | The Thing

They're not Swedish, Mac. They're Norwegian. That said, The Thing from 2002 is a great game adaptation of the film.

The Thing game from 2002 is a fun little action horror romp. It captures the spirit of the film, although some of the execution is spotty.

The developers of The Thing had high ambitions of building a trust and infection system that did the film justice. That said, due to execution and technical limitations, they're not able to stick the landing.

As well, some stretches in The Thing can drive you up the wall and make you want to toss your J&B scotch at your computer.

Overall, The Thing is an enjoyable experience that any fan of the film should check out, rough edges and all.
