Keith: Truth be told, when I originally found out about SOMA, I expected something along the lines of Dead Space or the more recently Alien: Isolation, but I’m glad that once I finally got my hands on the game that it wasn’t the case. Instead I was treated to a sci-fi story of survival and more importantly an intriguing story that makes you wonder about what many could consider perhaps the single most asked question of all time. Who am I? What does it truly mean to be human? Yes folks, SOMA is that kind of game that not only offers some entertainment, but a introduces moral overtones as well. Even before diving into the game, if you’ve paid attention to the trailers that Frictional Games released, you should have an idea as to what you’re about to get involved with.

Far better games have been released in this genre (Dead Space Remake, Alien Isolation, Alan Wake 2 etc).
