TheSixthAxis: "But just as the game was starting to click, the first episode ended (with a bang). All in all, the first episode provided a mere 15 minutes of gameplay, including some of the trial-and-error reloads. But this first episode bodes well for the other ones, even if the game is strict on what you had to do at all times. Hopefully the rest of the episodes tone down the handholding, and open up a bit."
The WellPlayed team has come together to share which video games they’d like to see turned into a TV show.
If you're going to relive a nightmare, you might as well do it right.
One thing that's been prevalent now more than ever is video game remakes. Dormant series like Prince of Persia, Splinter Cell, and System Shock aren't first getting brand-new sequels but remakes of the classic entries. Horror titles are no exception, with the recent Resident Evil, Dead Space, and Silent Hill remakes.
Putting aside whether these remakes are necessary, most of them are excellent. They can expand and enrich the world with added details, improve gameplay mechanics, or put more focus on the story. Standard remakes will count, but story remakes or reimaginings will also be included.
If Castlevania is there as an Horror Game then Demon's Souls should be there as well.
Also, you might want to add Shadow of the Colossus there too. Where you play as a mass murdering genocidal maniac on a warpath.
Forget jump scares; if you’re looking for a scary game to play this Halloween, you need to sit down with one of these great psychological horror games. Let the feeling of unease creep beneath your skin as you absorb yourself in the unnerving worlds of these incredible games.
These are our best psychological horror games of all time.
IF THE WHOLE GAME IS AVAILABLE. If it's like Qore and your purchase forces you to wait for the next download then forget it! It's not worth my money to wait. But if I get to play the whole game, now you're talking! We'll just have to wait and see later on.
Am I alone in saying that I didn't enjoy this demo? If I had to rate it I'd give it a 6 out of 10. (and yes this is just a big 'if'. I know the game has much more to offer and the story has already intrigued me)
Things I like:
Story
Sound
Implementing Sixaxis
Characters
Things that I really didn't like:
Camera
Lighting (i know it's supposed to be dark, but I couldn't see a thing. If I messed with my tv's brightness it got washed out)
Gameplay (fighting wasn't that fun at all)
Controls: They were too jerky.
Did anyone feel that way as well?
what game that is like this have great lighting? If you could see everything coming at you, it wouldn't be scary.I didnt care too much for the controls and camera angle but i think its something that after i play for awhile I'll get use to and enjoy. I'm kinda wanting to wait on silent hill since I've played those before.
i think the demo was pretty sick, so far i like it better then silent hill. and i had the original for ps2 and i loved them.plus if your not sure download both of the trailers and LOOK at every monster you see and they will trip you out. im getting this.
I understand this is a survival horror game. I love the Silent Hill Series, I have all of them and will pick up homecoming when it comes out. And yeah, the darker, the grittier the better.. but don't blind me. I want to be able to navigate.
Also I know fighting isn't the focus of the game, but still, it should be satisfying. I'll have to check out the demo again, but as of now it just reminds me of an old ps2 game. A lower budget one (I'm going SOLELY by the demo here. I haven't seen any trailers, etc for it yet)
