If I'm not mistaken it's by the same guy(s) who did Max Payne and it's showing in that there's a focus on storytelling (including little shows on TV sets you pass). And the story seems quite cool. The gameplay I couldn't really get into though; if you're not walking, talking to people or collecting Thermos bottles of coffee, you're running from checkpoint to checkpoint, trying to get rid of ghostly attackers that you can only kill by pointing your flashlight on them until they get vulnerable and then shoot them. Both batteries for your flashlight and ammunition are very limited resources, so you can imagine how frustrating it can get when you're assaulted by large groups. Often running is a better choice than fighting, but you're not that fast either. If that sounds like fun to you, or not too bad, then it's worth a try, at least for the story.
