Critics Consensus:Murdered Soul Suspect

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the all new murder mystery themed game Murdered:Soul Suspect!!
Murdered:Soul Suspect was announced at a very interesting time. A time where pretty much no new IP was being announced, Square Enix was in financial straits (again) and instead of churning out the 300th Final Fantasy game they banked on this made by the developers of such not so hits like Dark Void and the interesting but mediocre game that was supposed to "save" the Ouya. So it had to be good right?
Right? Not so much. While Murdered:Soul Suspect has had one of the most interesting plots for a video game in years (one in which you have to solve your own murder)  but the game is sadly very linear,short, and glitchy as described by Polygon,Joystiq, and GameInformer. Sure the script and characters are cool and interesting but the other things are really the meat in the pie which is why Murdered:Soul Suspect is disappointing for a game that got so much buzz.
Overall only get this if you want to.
Murdered:Soul Suspect is rated M.
