We played The Evil Within - from now on I will fall asleep with the light on [next-game.pl]

Frankly I must admit that I'm not a big fan of the Resident Evil series anymore, and my love ended about third game. This was the last episode of the series, which was able to reliably scare ("Staaaaars"). Fortunately, Shinji Mikami has got one more horror game for us. And this time it is real kick-ass title. Check our impressions after playing the demo.

It is impressive that is for sure.

i hope he will bring back the old survival recipe: less action and lots of puzzles and objects to collect.

Murad4339d ago

Dude, the recipe hasn't died, it's only dead in triple A titles. In other's it's trying to be great, but it's done badly because the lack of funding.

iNcRiMiNaTi4339d ago (Edited 4339d ago )

I hope so. Less action, scarce ammo (this is a must, I don't want enemies to drop ammo so we end up defending ourselves with a knife or some kind of melee weapon) and no regenerating health

Finally a game we all wanted

thank you ZineMax/Bethesda for publishing and putting in the resources

BTW is this for current gen or next gen?(or maybe both?)

fattyuk4340d ago

I seriously could not play this game,

the trailer enough scared the shit out of me!

Gotta stick with the zombie genre for me,

ifritAlkhemyst4340d ago

I can't take anyone seriously when they act like a game scared them. Or a book. Or a film.

BabyTownFrolics4340d ago

Ooh look at you tough guy. Kidding aside this game looks interesting.

ifritAlkhemyst4340d ago (Edited 4340d ago )

Yea, the game looks excellent. We need more Lovecraftian stuff in games, as cliche as that sounds it's still true.

ifritAlkhemyst4340d ago

More Lovecraft is a good thing but I think he's gathered too many "fans" who've never read his stories and only know of Cthulhu from the internetz. They've turned Lovecraft into a cliche of aquatic and tentacled gods despite how much more his stories have to offer.

rezzah4340d ago

I agree with that. Thing is that "cthulhu cliche" would make more sense as I bet they don't even know what Lovecraftian is.

It is as you said, they know about the name Cthulhu. It is likely they may not even know about H.P. Lovecraft at all.

CBaoth4340d ago

Aye I agree with you both. The Colour Out of Space, The Lurking Fear, Facts Concerning the Late Arthur Jermyn & His Family, Dagon and many others were all excellent horror fantasy stories and a damn shame they're buried under the symbolic visage of Cthulhu; even though many of his tales contributed to the Mythos.

I would also recommend if anyone likes horror fantasy to check out Algernon Blackwood, MR James, Arthur Machen, and Ambrose Bierce.

The Evil Within Deserved More: A Great Horror Series Left Behind

The Outerhaven writes: While I hold Bethesda's The Evil Within series as some of the best Survival Horror games available, it's clear that Bethesda has no intention of revisiting the series. While Capcom is still working on its Resident Evil series, I look back at the now-dead survival horror series from Bethesda, wondering why the series was left wide open, and yet still not revisited.

An OK horror series left behind. It had some great ideas, but it never knew how to play to its strengths. Instead, it came out like just another RE4 clone.

I would love for a third entry to come out, but it needs to learn to lean in on the psychological aspect and move away from the generic "pew pew" ideology at the center of the gameplay loop. It doesn't need to abandon it; it just needs to put it into better context, is all.

Also, try a first-person perspective instead. Too many 3rd-person games with nothing to offer but an avatar taking precious screen space. At least make it an actual option and not that janky-ass mess the second game pretended to have.

Silent Hill Creator Sees Himself Collaborating With Resident Evil Creator Shinji Mikami in Future

Silent Hill's creator Keiichiro Toyama shared his openness to a potential future collaboration with Resident Evil creator, Shinji Mikami.

-Foxtrot232d ago

This would be a dream come true if they pull it off.

I’d love it if it started out in a mansion then once you got out of the first chapter or so it would open up into the small mountain town we can explore freely, similar to The Evil Within 2 hub levels.

Armyofdarkness232d ago

Sending Chris to Silent Hill to atone for punching that boulder would be great.

Notsofast232d ago

hopefully they work something out

CrimsonWing69232d ago

Ok, this would be beyond epic if anything comes from it.
