FTG Writes: I first encountered Red Barrel’s Outlast at PAX East 2013. I walked by the booth and spotted some interesting footage playing on the nearby HDTV and the developer giving an interview to some press. I wanted to give the game a shot, but had a panel to get to, so I rushed off and planned to play the game at some point over the next two days. Unfortunately, that never happened. Once word got out about Outlast, the line never let up. The developer had to open up a new demo station at a nearby booth just to help with the overflow. This fifteen minute demo of an indie game that few had heard about before was one of the most talked about games of the entire show. I finally got to play Outlast once it was released on September 4th. While it is a very well made and scary game overall, it has a few lingering issues that take something away from my final enjoyment.
Footage from what appears to be a prototype build of Red Barrels' first-person psychological survival horror game, Outlast, has emerged.
This sounds interesting. Red Barrels is teaming up with Lionsgate and renown horror producer Roy Lee to develop a feature film anchored in the rich and horrifying universe of the Outlast series.

Very safe list of horror games. I would argue that Amnesia Machine for Pig was not that great. Dark Descent was much a much better game.
Far better games have been released in this genre (Dead Space Remake, Alien Isolation, Alan Wake 2 etc).
