    Got this free with Plus, it's by far the worst game that's been offered with Plus. I refuse to go back.

    First off I actually enjoy the graphics, takes me back to the era of amazing GAMEPLAY games! Secondly, I wasn't scared... I'm sorry but this entire game was not scary to me. It may scare some however. Last, I can't stand the map system... can't tell you how many times I've

    Last, I can't stand the map system... can't tell you how many times I've backtracked.

    2/10... just not that good or I guess not my type of game? But hey I tried it before complaining about it unlike the 90% of Plus users this week.

    Lone Survivor might just be the purest survival horror game of this generation, leaving the player to desperately fend for himself, without offering him any clear information whatsoever on what's going on. One-man developer Jasper Byrne manages to use what are essentially GameBoy Color graphics to his advantage, suggesting horrors rather than flatout confronting the player with them, and expertly using creepy sound design to strengthen the experience. The map mechanics suck and it's a shame the game doesn't last very long, but horror fans can't go wrong with Lone Survivor.

    This Director's Cut shows very few novelties but Lone Survivor is still disturbing and oppressive on the smaller screen of Vita.

    A riveting survival-horror adventure, Lone Survivor: The Director's Cut is the best way to play the utterly terrifying indie gem.
