With just over a week to go the game is almost here unfortunately I'm super hyped which usually leads disappoirtfntment cough cough prometheus ahem. But any way this simply does look like the best thing since aliens in my opinion in the alien franchise I just hope it lives up to that standard! Here is a bit of I think a side mission(not the main game) but shows it off...

Anyway fingers crossed the story line lives up to the visuals and here we go!

Looks very good, gives the sense of being hopeless, all alone no real weapons and only one Xeno to deal with,  on paper you think Easy? If you had a Pulse Riffle and want to risk a Hull Breach.

This game looks like its gonna contain lots of out of the blue, jump out of your skin, poo your pants Survival Horror...

Only downside... now gotta either Buy a Xbox One, PS4 or new PC as well mine is 6 years old near enough lol 2GB Ram is nowt nowadays...  nor Quad Core 1.8Ghz Processor... unless they make a PS3 and Xbox 360 port then ill be fine ;)

Remeber playing Alien on the ZX Spectrum back when i was a kid, that had kind of same idea as this game.

Ah yer pitty for you although a ps4 is quiet cheap now-ish and it does have lots of apps and can brows web and play blu rays etc...I think the clever thing with this game is you dont have weapons at least for most of it you literally have to make things out of what you find like a wiskey bottle and a timed detonator. And if you use a weapon the alien usually hears it and comes to kill you and you cant kill it before it does so as the weapons are not powerful enough...yer might be on ps3...

Check out the BBC home page: they have a review and quite a bit of footage. Looks like it is from thier 'Click' programme.  Gave it a good reveiw ..called it 'nerve shredding'!

Today I have been dedicated to post on as many topics as possible until I pass out from drinking too many beers.

Ah yes just had a look - seems its possibly not an amazing story line which is a bit of a worry : http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p027v8wm .

 

Here is a list of the first few reviews : http://www.gamespot.com/articles/alien-isolation-review-roundup/1100-6422738/ 

 

Which is also a bit strange as some are loving it others not really so much bit like promethues lol! Just about to try the new lord of the rings game looks great...oh another game you might like if your a subtle game fan is the vanishing of ethan carter. Anyway I tihnk I will buy alien isolation its gotta be worth a try!

Still just over half way through need to finish it soon ... yes great game cut scenes were a little naff partly due to the low frame rate - was very weird on my PC going from 100 fps (in game) to like 20 ish (cut scenes). But yes looking forward to playing some more :D !
