GameSpot - I was never good at making it through any stretch of Alien: Isolation without dying. While playing alongside developer Creative Assembly's creative lead Al Hope, I might have also embarrassed myself.
With score-chasing comes anxiety, and adding a score-chasing component to Isolation's Survivor mode--via the new Salvage sub-mode--is both a brilliant and masochistic idea. I watched Hope wander through large hallways, ducking behind crates and other objects, waiting for too long to make sure the alien wasn't near. Not two steps later, we heard the shuffling and banging signaling our enemy's presence in the air ducts. And then the xenomorph was screaming in my face and I was screaming in Hope's face and it was back to square one, the score reset to zero.
If you've got an Alien itch you can't quite scratch until Alien: Rolumus releases, GameSpew has rounded up the best Alien games to tide you over.
Fans (myself included) are clamouring for a direct sequel to this fantastic game and hope for an Alien: Isolation 2. But will this great game ever get another instalment?
tbh it doesn’t need a sequel. Fantastic game but not something to make into a long running series.
Also included are Alien: Isolation, Dead Island Definitive Edition, Outlast 2, and more.
Good month imo. I'll play Gotham Knights and House of Ashes. I'm finishing up Disco E on Steam right now - that's a superb game.
