Test Notes:

* Runs at 60 FPS.

* Pixilation effect observed at various parts of the game. Texture flickering also occurs.

* Instance of subtitles and spoken dialogue not matching.

* During a cutscene one of the characters popped in. During the same cutscene a string of text appeared on screen instead of the subtitles. The same issue occurred with the transcript of an audio log as well.

* Interactive toy would pop in and out depending on the angle you turn the camera.

* Occasionally when attacking an enemy the attack seems to not connect when it should. This happed a few times throughout the game but quite a bit during a holdout fight in chapter 5. Enemies would get stuck attacking the NPC allies and could not be hurt for minutes at a time. However every enemy this occurred with could be killed eventually.

* Observed enemy stand still and stop moving after being hit.

* Finishing the game makes the Archives available.

* After finishing the game and checking the chapter select screen all chapters after chapter one show the chapter being locked. Despite this the chapters can be selected.

* Save system does not always save properly. After saving at a save station, the game was closed and relaunched. Upon going to the file select screen the file was not there. Was able to replicate this several times. Seems about a 50/50 chance the game will save. Game can be cleared by playing thru all of it in one session but saving and coming back to it later is not reliable. There are also reports of the save system setting players back to previous saves stations.

* All trophies earned unlocked properly.

Content Completed:

* Main story completed.

* Various amount of audio logs and collectibles found.

Additional Notes:

* According to reports online the save system bug was never fixed, even with the updates the game has received. If playing it’s recommended to play thru the whole game in one sitting which roughly takes about 5 hours.

* Despite the back art work having Spanish the disc build only has English support.

* Version 1.00 on disc.

* Disc ID: CUSA-13637

* Spine ID: 2104411

* Number of players: 1

* Audio language supported: English

* Subtitle language supported: English
