I Am Alive is a harrowing game. Everything from the stylised presentation and foreboding locales through to the experimental game mechanics have been designed with a single purpose in mind – to keep the gamer on edge with a strong sense of dread.
This becomes especially apparent as our displaced hero, Adam, journeys through the darkest reaches of Haventon, a city which has been rocked by a cataclysmic event and since left its citizens in a fight to survive. As intriguing as this premise may be, I Am Alive is often a harrowing experience for all the wrong reasons.

Neil writes "October. The busiest time of year for new game releases. And this year is no different with a huge number of titles releasing over the next 30 days or so.
So you can't really blame the team back at Xbox HQ for delivering a bevy of Games With Gold titles that really do fail to enthuse many. In fact, whilst the free Xbox One and Xbox 360 games given away during September were pretty damn decent, October's free titles will quite possibly go down as one of the worst combination of Games With Gold titles this year."
Where are the fanboys previously calling out PS+ as indie+ etc for many months this year, to complain about Octobers GwG indie line-up? Hypocrites.
Well, it's decent offering. But it's just lackluster this month.
I noticed that when Xbox has a major release like Gears of War, MS releases weaker games on Games with Gold to get you to play Gears. While Sony gives you better games to stop people from playing Gears. Both Sony and MS do this.
No but stop complaining about the monthly courtesy games. Complain about the £40 games with microtransactions.
