Outlast tells the majority of its story through scattered documents filled with exposition. While Billy Givens found the actual story got progressively sillier than he would have preferred, he enjoyed unraveling it through his own exploration. And really, he enjoyed all of Outlast in general. Despite its few frustrations, it’s a game with absolute attention to detail and execution with everything from cheap scares to horrifying and gritty tension. The reviewer found himself scared until the final moments, and he swore to himself that once was enough – but even so, he's headed back in to the asylum for round two against his best judgment.
Footage from what appears to be a prototype build of Red Barrels' first-person psychological survival horror game, Outlast, has emerged.
This sounds interesting. Red Barrels is teaming up with Lionsgate and renown horror producer Roy Lee to develop a feature film anchored in the rich and horrifying universe of the Outlast series.
It has to be. I hope they learned with Borderlands that PG-13 is not the way if the source material is an M-Rated game.

Very safe list of horror games. I would argue that Amnesia Machine for Pig was not that great. Dark Descent was much a much better game.
Far better games have been released in this genre (Dead Space Remake, Alien Isolation, Alan Wake 2 etc).
I'm having lots of fun with this game. Even though I have to take a break every 30 minutes. Can't remember the last time I was so scared by a videogame.
