@V8-Johnboy Agreed! There was an article online from a reviewer who stated gamers should watch Alien again before playing and you'll catch many of the little touches and details the devs have put into this title. Oh and of course.....play in the dark.

:scared:Well you can never watch it too many times imo:tup:👍
 
We're going to be seeing a lot of twitchy people walking around on the street after playing this.
 
Not long to go now! Who is going to invest in this game then? :)
 
New trailer, if this happened to me the tears would be in full flow

Can't risk my marriage to @Sureboss which happens to be just as important:sly:. You should see us two upfront mate Yorke and Cole have nowt on us!:D 1000 games together has helped.:crazy::boggled:
 
We'd never be able to split Geoff!
 
Jesus, I forgot this is coming out :( I get paid next Friday.. but I already had plans to pick up Horizon. Maybe I'll just go balls out and get both and just be super broke haha :lol:
 
Some nice gameplay that goes up to 4k here. Language warning
 
A lot of sites saying it's very good, then you have IGN and Polygon. :lol:
 
The RPS verdict is pretty positive, they said there are pacing issues near the end but they'd be far less noticeable if the game wasn't as good in the good bits. I'm not sure that made sense. They also said it's the best Alien game so far, not exactly a massive achievement since they've all been mediocre or crap since AvP2 but I'm suddenly extremely excited, it won't take much to motivate me to pick it up (on PC) but since I pre-ordered the new Borderlands DL-- sorry, game, I'll leave it for a while.

Generally very favourable bar the first two
 
Metro is easily the fairest and most realistic review site I've seen on the internet. The don't give games higher or lower scores than they generally deserve.
 
Rock, Paper, Shotgun: "Isolation is the best Alien game I’ve ever played, I’m in no doubt about that. Even in its awkward moments it is doing something interesting with the license, exploring the edges of what is possible in its world, quietly and discreetly. I expect the debate about certain design choices to be loud and long. At the centre of the debate will be one of the finest entries in the Alien canon in any medium, and one of the finest horror experiences in ours."/10
 
It's a fine idea that once you have the PS Eye connected, a loud sound from your end will alert anything nearby in the game...talk about full-on immersion.

I mean I know other devs are working with similar ideas (Dying Light, you can attract a zombie's attention by shouting at it) but this is definitely a new one to me and a good idea.
