Bradley from The Midnight Gamer reviews SOMA on PS4 and talks about how the game is less of a jump scare and more frightening the deeper you journey into the depths of the plot.
Spooky season is here again at last and time of the horror game has arrived alongside it. This year has seen the return of some the genre's greatest entires, but both tended to focus more on thrills than they did chills. So, those wanting a bit more of the latter this month would do well to check out at least one of these before Halloween rolls around.
Embark on a thrilling sci-fi adventure with our carefully curated list of the best PlayStation 4 sci-fi games
Titan fall 2 was chefs kiss. For those of you who haven't played it go ahead. Brilliant. With each level being creatively different.
Does ISLAND have English subs ? I can’t find a copy that says it has English subs for PS only the Switch version which I rather not buy .
Love Steins Gate and Soma
I own a physical copy on Switch and it does have English subtitles so it's all good on Switch and Playstation.
My bad. Steam and Switch have English but PS4 and Vita only have Japanese. Sony doesn't mess with many visual novels which is why I only own a Switch OLED and laptop for all my games.
The Xbox One is full of SPOOKS, and that's all you should know about. Here is a list of the best horror games on the system.
A lot of my favourites are on this list so I whole heartedly approve.
Everything except The Observer. It started out really interesting but quickly unraveled into a train wreck. Including frustratingly dull dives into mind sequences, They neutered the monster with boring on rail stealth sequences and a laughably obvious and cringeworthy ending. Mix in bugs and some wonky controls to boot.
I had really strong impressions with it to start but ended up absolutely hating it.
I got 2-3hrs in and couldn't take it anymore, the constant need to switch between the 3 visions just became so annoying and honestly just unnecessary.
I actually agree. At first I thought it was a great idea because the game wasn't holding your hand with the Detective work but it was so unintuitive too. It became a sequence of staring at everything for long enough in 3 different vision modes just to see what stuck.
Soma would be more existential horror than anything but I'll be damned if it didn't have one of the best stories in game that I've experienced. Blew my mind.
This game is cool until you reach the part where you have to walk from station to station out in the water. Really could have benefitted from some sort of map or beacon to minimize the frustrating wandering around trying to figure out where to go. Took me right out the game.
This game is AMAZING.
THis game is one of the best scifi horror games I have ever played. Absolutely brilliant in my opinion. I love underwater settings and this nails the atmosphere and feeling of being isolated. It's quite something honestly. Great thought provoking story as well. Everyone who hasn't played it needs to get get it ASAP. I give this game a 9.5 out of 10.
Way better than a 7/10... but, opinions.
