Atmospheric horror will always trump over straight scares. That and Alien: Isolation leans a little too heavy on the “hide & seek” schtick with a stalker enemy. Don’t get me wrong, Isolation is amazing but I find games that restricts your ability to defend yourself to be more frustrating and stressful than terrifying.

Games that give me a hand gun but only half a magazine are FAR more scary because it gives a false sense of hope and security. There’s a reason why resource management is a fundamental trait in Survival-Horror

I hate the bloom effects in the HD Remake. The original looks way better. In fact, better in Dolphin. But I'd even take the 480i over the bloom.

It's a great game, enjoy it.

The moment that the woman was "trapped" and I had to save her, but I fell and suddenly she was free and able to pick me up, then went back to being "trapped", I quit the game.

God I miss Prince of Persia. Do you guys remember The Sands of Time, Warrior Within and The Two Thrones? Good old times :) These were fantastic games!

To me Alien Isolation is like 6-8 hours longer than it needs to be and it really wears out its welcome.

Dead Space remains tense throughout without becoming annoying.

Dude, if you have the Sony playstation TV it is actually still a really solid monitor.

Outlast, SOMA, Visage are horror games. Bioshock is action thriller. Great game though and your post more than likely will make me start up the first game again tonight.

Every Drakes Fortune game is better than the previous one..

I stopped trying to find a good mobile game. I downloaded Retroarch instead and have been playing thru Final Fantasy 3, Metal Max Returns, and Dragon Quest Monsters: Caravan Heart.

Let me introduce you to an Italian plumber with a big mustache and a heart for saving a princess - most underrated gem of all time

Outer Worlds is a bit like that. Very likeable characters too.

Did you read my whole comment? I hate how cosmetics are behind a paywall. And often they are ridiculous prices, like $20 per skin.

Cosmetics and customization are fun. They are not for everyone, but they do make the gameplay experience more enjoyable for me. I love being able to customize my character. I'm happy to pay full price for a game where I can enjoy the full breath of customization the game has to offer. No F2P game will ever be the same value. You'd have to spend thousands of dollars to unlock everything.

On a side note, I also hate how Mobas are almost always a f2p model now. I like the genre a lot, but it's impossible to find a true DOTA style moba that isn't f2p.

That's such a Viva la Dirt League trope! 😂😂😂

yeah I forgot about that.

They remade sands of time???? Holy shit

Eh, Ace Attorney 2 was the weakest of the original trilogy, I’d agree with 3 though, that was a good game.

I'm glad you see it's not about the best games, but more how they stand out for whatever reason.

A lot of people apparently think this is about the best games, they don't see their favourite game in there, which probably had some awards and they downvote, pity, it would be nice to have more of debate what I was missing but also what I haven't missed.

I wouldn't call it the real ending. More like an epilouge. The ending was pretty definitive. You choose the girl over the big bad.

Linear can be good if the story can keep you invested among other things. Good example of a bad linear game is final fantasy 13. The story was bad. Gameplay was bad. The environment of each hallway was bland and boring. The characters are among the worst in the series.

Yep. I have a retro handheld and emulate everything. No need for cancer mobile games.

No friends. No gaming bars. Fuck life.

Agree 100%. They really do suck. I also stopped caring about mobile games the moment I bought a retro handheld. Now every rom I have is mobile. So why would I waste my time with cancerous mobile gaming
