dailygamesnews.com - A trailer for the previously mentioned, Cryostasis. Taking place in the Arctic Circle in 1981, players take on the role of Alexander Nesterov, a Russian meteorologist sent to investigate the final hours of the North Wind, an old nuclear ice-breaker shipwrecked in an icy grave.
RPS:
"Cryostasis belongs to the same class as the S.T.A.L.K.E.R and Metro series, namely weird-as-heck Eastern bloc shooters. As an FPS it isn’t as good as anything either of those series’ offer, but the story it tells between the gun bits is satisfyingly mysterious and surprisingly touching."
Den of Geek continues their 31 days of horror games series with a really chilling game, Cryostasis: Sleep of Reason!
Videogamegeezer highlights three PC-only first-person games that need to be re-released onto the Xbox One and PS4, also suggesting improvements.
Among the Sleep was pretty good. Not all I was hoping it would be, but still a very strong title. Never played, naissanceE and Cryostasis, while interesting, was very, very poorly executed.
There are a number of titles that I feel are more deserving of a new audience.
Soldier of Fortune, made by Raven again like SOF2.. That multiplayer was so good back in 2002.
That doesn't look half bad.
PC title, eh?
Is this DX10 only?
Yeah I really like the look of this title
I got the russian release of this, and honestly, it's pretty poor. The optimization is terrible, I've got a pretty capable machine, I can play Crysis on medium at around 40fps, high around 20fps, but I can only just play this on low at about 15fps, and it doesn't even look that great. The gameplay is slow and clumsy, and the storytelling techniques are annoying and boring. If you're interested in this, don't get your hopes up. (And I'm not just some SHOOTAN fan, I like games with stories and interesting gameplay mechanics, like penumbra or SoTC, but I just can't enjoy this game.
