This third person horror survival video game allows the player to assume the role of one of several camp counselors in an attempt to survive the horror OR as Jason Voorhees himself, on the hunt. The lavish attention to detail, drawn directly from the movies including the depth of Camp Crystal Lake itself is simply stunning.  The extremely graphic multiple kill options (classic and inventive) given to Jason AND the opportunity to unlock the various Voorhees’ from the films is sure to delight even the most dedicated fan of the franchise.
