Alien: Isolation Review | TheSixthAxis

That idea of never being comfortable with how the game is unravelling is something that feels quite unique and it’s extremely well imagined here. Plenty of survival horror games have you feeling vulnerable as you essentially fulfil the role of a hero but things are different here. In Alien: Isolation you’re not the hero, you’re the prey.

again a 9 ^^ i am confident that it will be my type of game.

Stsonic4253d ago (Edited 4253d ago )

It's a good game, played it for a few hours today. The core game play is a bit rusty but in saying that, it feels awesome to be playing in a true alien universe.

If I didn't get a crushing headache I would not have stopped playing!

equal_youth4253d ago

i will get it tomorrow. i am all in for some good scares for my weekend.

yesterday a headache stopped me from playing shadow of mordor. damn it! its the one thing that can pull me away from my controller if i am really into a game.

tigertron4253d ago

A better review than IGN's.

sprinterboy4253d ago

Gonna wait for project morpheus patch tbh, waited 20 yrs for a good aliens game, sure I can wait a yr for project morpheus to come out

equal_youth4253d ago

not sure if they can make it happen. i love morpheus and all that has been shown till today but i doubt they can make it run 2x120fps on a ps4 as much as i would love that to happen. otherwise.. speaking of headache ^^

Awesome scores for Isolation, just the "major" sites pretending to be honest now giving a low score, because they will give a big score for games like Call of Duty later.

starchild4253d ago

Well, we know that sites like IGN and Gamespot are much more mainstream and casual in their tastes.

I ultimately don't care too much about review scores for games. It's just like movie reviews...how many of us really care what critics say about any given movie? There are as many opinions as there are people, and that's ok, I simply realize that my tastes don't line up with a lot of other people.

The Best Alien Games (To Play After Watching Alien: Earth)

An opinion piece on the best Alien games. From arcade Alien vs Predator action to a terrifying Xenomorph stalker, these are the best Alien video games starring Ridley Scott’s chestbursting, acid-blooded nightmare.

FTLmaster286d ago

Got a soft spot for AvP (2010) but solid list nonetheless.

Abnor_Mal285d ago

My favorite Aliens game also, having the three campaigns to play was great. Scaling walls as an alien waiting to ambush anyone that came too close.

Only played a little of the horde mode but was still fun.

Nittdarko285d ago

Aliens Fireteam Elite was my GotY in 2021, single player was kinda bad but playing that game 3 player with friends was so good and really challenging on higher difficulties

Massive shout out to Aliens Vs predator 2 (2001), a dialup lag filled fun mess in multiplayer and 3 great campaigns

I played through most of the PS4 version of the game but stopped because another game came out. I bought it last year for PC with the intention of using the VR mod but haven't gotten around to setting it up. I am glad I waited.

Neonridr362d ago

Great game, even better in VR. A little drawn out by the end, but I hope we see CA do something a little different with the sequel.

OtterX362d ago (Edited 362d ago )

Sweet. I also rebought this game on Steam for the purpose of VR. I'll have to give it another shot w full immersive controls. I had only tried it out briefly before.

It's funny this was never officially released at retail as a VR game, bc it feels so perfect for it!
