I see this game is on sale for $2

I see this game is on sale for $2 For anyone who is wondering today (04-26-2020) --- buy it I got 25hours out of it. Solid story and perfect atmosphere. Definitely a bit nerve rattling ... well worth the $2 in these troubled times :-)

Hard to put down

In my 60 years of life and 347 viewings of the Alien movies collectively,owning every Aliens game released for PC,(the ones not in my Steam library are on disk)I have in my over 30 years of gaming rarely had as much fun playing a Stealth\Action game....period!Very well done,true to the films in almost every way.Genuinely thrilled that the devs worked that hard on the backstory and the characters.Subtle reminders from the films are all over the game if a little difficult to come upon.I absolutely and overwhelmingly recommend this to ANY Stealth\Horror\Action fan or Aliens nut.I am also Autistic which means (for me) I remember a LOT of details from the movies.The dialog,look of the Nostromo,gags,weapons,etc.If you need a Braingasm here's your fix. Edit Dec 2015,After waiting a year and a new sound card I wanted to update.My second playthrough didn't take as long but the experience is still beyond compare for this genre of game.The sound design is absolutely the BEST I have ever experienced in a game.It COULD be that I am just a rabid fan of the series but......nah.Playing on the higher difficulties will challenge all but the most coordinated of us....of which I 'aint ;) This is the standard by which ALL other Stealth\Horror games should be judged(IMHO) As far as I am concerned THIS game will never get old or boring.Ok Dev's ....when do we get to see Amanda rescued and see her REVENGE?! :)

If Alien: Isolation could be summed up with any one word, then it’s "real"

If Alien: Isolation could be summed up with any one word, then it’s "real". This is the kind of game Alien fans totally deserve (I'm a fan and I love it). It's really great (and fuc**** scary!) Prepare your speakers or headphones, crank your volume up and play this gem during the night. Is Alien: Isolation for everyone? Hmm... Perhaps not. If you require asurence, telegraphed threats, predictable solutions, and an inherent, hand-holding sense of "fairness", you might find the experience too much to handle, but those of you brave enough, who are craving a real test of your skills, instincts and nerves, will find a bounty of thrilling, engrossing, and profoundly fulfilling rewards. If you truly embrace it, Alien: Isolation will, during its most powerful moments, make you feel more alive than a video game has in years. Pros: The Alien is truly terrifying - The Perfect Organism Amazing recreation of the Alien universe (it's like you are in the movie) Smart and unpredictable AI (one of the best ever) Looks astonishing on ultra settings If you play on Hard - you are the man (only for brave ones) Collecting all achievements is relatively hard, but totally rewarding Cons: Some minor bugs on higher levels Human AI is somewhat stupid The Alien is going to hunt you in your dreams Overall: One of the best survival horrors I have played in years. Totally a great experience. Recommended! <3
