Not the best of games to own, there is not guns or weapons to fight. long boring sessions of finding things. bored in 5 mins in gamplay. Graphics are not top notch. Skip it

A linear gameplay that you'll need to follow with exact precision, it was so incredibly boring I had to stifle yawns through the first chapter. Graphics were clunky and unimaginative. I've played other Aliens games that were far more intriguing and fun. Sadly, this one completely missed the mark.

It's the first step towards the Alien game you've always wanted. But it's a tiny, uncertain step. Given the poor showing of the last few major games set in the Alien universe, however, it's a welcome one.

Alien cat-and-mouse encounters can be tense and frightening; Nails the right retro-futuristic atmosphere; Great use of sound and motion-tracking

Loaded with uninspired filler, Trial and error + distant save points = frustration, Some mechanics are inconsistent; others are illogical

I'm very confident that Alien: Isolation is the game that fans of the franchise have been waiting a long time for. I really enjoyed some of the game's best survival horror elements, particularly certain encounters with the xenomorph, scripted or not.

+ Nails the look and sound of the film; + Superb moments of suspense and fear; + Two or three standout moments diehards will love

- Newcomers might not last the long length; - Pacing hits a downer half-way through; - Non-alien moments feel tacked on

Unlike most of my friends, I've never been a big fan of the horror genre, both movies and video games. There are certainly exceptions (well, mostly the

+ Homage to the Alien series - both audio and visual; + The Alien's ability to hunt you; + Genuinely unnerving; + Tons of ways to attempt to outsmart the Alien

- Inconsistent voice acting; - Awkward pacing at times; - Annoying item creation

From the start, I didn't really have Alien: Isolation pegged as a prime target for downloadable content; after all, the story it tells is very self-contained; the focus remains solely on Amanda Ripley as she struggles to survive aboard Sevastopol Station.

This game was a big surprize. The last alien game was a bit clunky at times and had glitches. I liked this one a lot. It's forced stealth. You can't win against the alien so you better avoid it. My only negative is that it has little replay value.

Excellent game with the atmosphere of tension in many corners, playing in the dark..... is very cool

I can't finish this game, the atmosphere is so involving and the gameplay so good I keep getting spooked and scared. It's full of scares, story and atmosphere. The alien AI is very smart and will find you so you have to keep moving.
