Alien: Isolation

[shaolin_monkey]

I feel secure enough in my earthbound sexuality to say that, YES, the Alien WAS naked (seriously? Ever seen thaat thing in clothes? What's it supposed to wear? A hawaiian shirt and surf pants? :p)

A hat and a cane, dude - a hat and a cane!!

So off the topic, is the game good?

[Jon]

There's a game!?

I thought Alien: Isolation was just a general description of the thread....

Please make this thread go away. The giggles don't make up for the unpleasantness.

What have malevolent movie reels got to do with it?

Crew Expendable is a great adrenaline rush. A quick 'arcade' experience.

The main game is much like the film, slow paced at first but once the Alien makes it's appearance you really start to feel under threat.
It's amazing how much of a constant feeling of dread you get when you know it's around.

So far it's good fun and scary in equal measure.

I apologise for any unpleasantness that came from any of my commentary, but some of you have admitted that the aliens are naked and that could mean you also understand there whole method for reproduction which as always been shown uncensored in each of the films is very explicit.

[Hawkmumbler]

I've literally only JUST seen the Alien, and it was a pants sh*tting experience! Really good stuff indeed.

Yes, but was it naked and did you fancy it?

Neither phallic nor yonic enough for me.

Now, y'see, that's more like it...

but

And that, right there, is where you went wrong. There's great big hole of skin-crawling creepiness. You're in it. You dug it. Stop digging.

I'm a couple of hours into this and so far I am enjoying it.

just a couple of minor niggles so far, the save system sucks, can we please go back to games letting us save where we want and having multiple slots please. Also, having the game drop to my desktop because my screensaver kicks in when I'm watching a longer cut scene is a bit of an immersion breaker.

I don't so much mind not being able to jump but seeing corridors blocked by a row of knee height packing cases that a toddler could step over feels a bit stupid.

Minor whinges aside though the game is great, I love the overall design and the sound and lighting are great. No quick time events either (so far) although making the player pointlessly press combinations of keys to perform some actions is a bit of a baffling feature.

The thread or the game?

....making the player pointlessly press combinations of keys to perform some actions is a bit of a baffling feature.

Ah, the thread.
