There is not much in the statement but they have acknowledged issues which is the first step to fixing them.

Hope he gets to play a fully functioning version soon - reviews are quite positive. I've been wavering on whether or not to pick it up. I enjoyed Asylum but couldn't get into the others.

If he hasn't played it for more than 2 hours he can request a full refund from steam. I doubt that they will have it fixed within a week, just like MKX it took at least a month and it still had problems.

He just said he is trying for a refund as he knows how to do it.

Will keep you posted, and thanks!

He is checking now to see how long he has played it....guess what?

He played 2.1 freaking hours!

I also just found it cost 90 freaking dollars!

Dad handles all the gaming funding.

Should he still try for a refund or do you think they will fix it soon?

We were laughing, though.

My son apparently always watches him and likes the videos.

Thanks...you helped us bond more as he's turning 14 next month.

I'm kidding; we get along well except when I lose it when he is so lazy about chores since I can barely get him off his computer as he's always playing games with his friends.
