but.....survival horror is dead

 

[Space Cowboy]

Seems like it is trying a bit too hard there.

 

[Piercing Light]

blah blah blah I need to see gameplay blah blah blah

It's Shinji Mikami so this can only be awesome.

Just the mere descriptions of aspects make me tingle with anticipation.

Spoiler Show

Some of the scenes in this game are going to be crazy disturbing.

but.....survival horror is dead

it appears to be undead

...

anyway, from what taochan posted, it looks like its gonna be wicked as long as it doesn't prioritize on action like every other survival-horror franchise (because developers don't understand the surviving and horror is void when you're punching zombies and packing an always-full artillery).

(because developers don't understand the surviving and horror is void when you're punching zombies and packing an always-full artillery).

That's where you're wrong. Developers are more than aware of how to do actual survival horror games, they just opt not to because they don't believe they will sell very well.

I hope its as good as the Resident Evil remake. Is cross gen confirmed?

The cube shape makes him different.

It sounds a bit like a mix between Silent Hill and Rise of Nightmares so far. Although I do agree that that trailer is trying a little too hard I'm interested in seeing where this goes.

Sounds great and the art direction looks fantastic.

Aside from the fact that this looks like the PS3/360 build, it's looking pretty solid.

 

[Roronoa Zoro]

It looks good but I'm not one that's easy to scare. Slender freaked me out alot but I doubt this game will mainly because of the shooter elements, and the way some of the enemies attack you. They're just freaky looking monsters that run at you for the most part. Bout as scary as Kingdom Hearts.

 

[Shadow Fenix]

Why aren't we talking about this more? I'm so stoked for this

 

[MegaxXxman]

Yes there is a shooter element in the game but from what I've seen and heard the enemies that you fight have some much unpredictability to how or if you can kill them it leaves you wondering if you should try to kill them or run and gun to get away.

The Evil Within Review - IGN

And the reviews start trickling in now. Wish I had my PS4 already to play this, sure it'll be worth the wait

 

[Roronoa Zoro]

Too bad it's only 20 hours. Look forward to getting it once it's under 20 bucks.

 

[Dogenzaka]

This game is the best. It has mediocre performance even on PS4 and the black bars are annoying, but the gameplay is ace.

Huh??? How many games these days are even 20 hours long and don't suck?

Can you explain what you mean by this? I mean glad the gameplay rocks, I'm sure it would anyway, but what performance issues does it have?

but.....survival horror is dead

Yeah, but the game could resurrect the genre.
