    Masterful sound design and soundtrack that carries the tension perfectly. Epic, cinematic and varied storyline lasting a dozen challengingMasterful sound design and soundtrack that carries the tension perfectly. Epic, cinematic and varied storyline lasting a dozen challenging hours (I played on 'novice' difficulty, but the alien doesn't give a damn, it insta-kills on any difficulty!). Spectacular art direction that makes you feel like a visitor at a physically tangible place. Minigames that feel just right in their context of machine interaction. Annoying alien that will randomly insta-kill you more than a few times. Conclusion: A fitting game for both Dark Souls-masochists or casual sci-fi explorers, but not really a horror game, as it's more tense than terrifying. PS3 is NOT the optimal way to play it, with glitches and long loading-times and a few severe framerate drops (the fire effects are way too pretty for PS3!). I could give 6 or 7 out of 10, but 8 is for a realistic space station, and the original, mature and uncompromisingly serious take on a first-person action game. Wait, actually I'll give it 7 because I don't want to replay it. Tension can make for a cool one-time adventure, but fun is more addictive. Full Review »

Not aI'm about 12 hours in and while I can understand some people's complaints that the game drags on a little, it's still entertaining me. Not a perfect game (some parts can be frustrating if you keep dying) but for the most part I have been having a blast playing this game and I've also had fun dipping into the short DLC missions too. Probably a 7 for an average gamer who likes stealth gameplay (and very little else), but definitely a 9 for those of us who grew up in fear of the Alien from the first movie. Great atmosphere, superb sound .... The PS3 version has a bit of slowdown (very occasionally) and some screen tearing from time to time, but nothing that spoils the fun. 9/10 Full Review »
