While there are most certainly missed opportunities (and potentially unmet expectations for some players), it's perhaps a bit unfair to spend too much time dwelling on what I Am Alive is not. What I Am Alive does well is offer up a slice of gaming with bleak aesthetics you won't find elsewhere. It's certainly an experience all its own, blending survival with platforming mechanics into a very tense package. Just make sure you know what you're getting going in and don't be expecting fast-paced action that'll get the old adrenal glands pumping.

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.
