    Sega posts cryptic Alien: Isolation 2 teaser: 'A feeling of being safer than one really is'

    Today, a teaser trailer called "False Sense Of Security" was posted by the Alien: Isolation YouTube account. An industrial door unlocks and opens into a gloomy, rainy cityscape, and the scene cuts to one of Isolation's emergency phone save points. It's hard to believe it's been 1

    Alien Isolation is way too long because its Xenomorph got way too smart: 'At the time it didn't seem that long'

    lien Isolation is my favourite horror game, but it's too long and I think that opinion is near unanimous. When it feels like it's drawing to an end it just keeps going , and its protracted runtime is exacerbated by the fact that it's an unbearably tense experience. I adore this g

    Games of 2014 - Alien Isolation

    The pitch read like an inevitable disaster: development studio known for only making RTS games to create a first-person horror with only one enemy, based on the film Alien. Not only that, but it was to release in the year following publisher Sega's last Aliens effort, the abysmal

    To 'appease the people who thought the game was too long,' an Alien: Isolation modder trimmed the campaign length down to a svelte 46 seconds

    Here at PC Gamer, we're willing to admit our admiration for those who can maintain a personal grudge for a decade or more. It's a rare dedication to the art of being a hater; keeping your contempt at a steady simmer for that long takes a lot of discipline. I'm not talking about t

    Why Alien Isolation is one of the greatest PC games, and you should play it now

    It's been ten years, but Alien Isolation 2 is actually in development. If you've played the original, this is the announcement you've both been waiting for and never thought would arrive - it's not quite up there, but after a decade, Alien Isolation 2 was at risk of gaining the s

    Alien Isolation 2 is actually happening, already in early development

    In any conversation about the best survival horror games ever, Alien Isolation should always get a mention. The game has just turned a decade old, and what better way to celebrate than by announcing that its long-awaited sequel is actually happening. Yes, Alien Isolation 2 is in

    In celebration of the 10th Anniversary a message from Creative Assembly

    To our fans around the world: It’s hard to believe that it has been 10 years since we embarked on our journey with the release of ALIEN: ISOLATION. When we started developing ALIEN: ISOLATION, we had one guiding principle: to create a truly authentic experience that went back to

    Alien: Isolation is my favourite horror game because it's taken me an entire decade to finish it

    In this live service era, it's not that strange to spend years playing a single game, but alongside my various online timesinks there has been one anomaly: a staunchly singleplayer, offline horror game. Alien: Isolation just turned 10, and for this entire time I've been trying ve

    Ten years on, Alien Isolation's biggest problem is its runtime

    The appeal of tight, single-player games cannot be overstated; the type that stands the test of time, that you can revisit again and again, and that leaves an indelible impression after just a handful of hours of play. Early Resident Evil and Silent Hill, Max Payne, Portal - you

    Alien Isolation's player count suddenly spikes on Steam

    I remember watching Felix 'PewDiePie' Kjellberg play Alien: Isolation as a kid. I wasn't allowed to play it because the movies terrified my mom and would therefore horrify me, so watching Pewds was as close as I got. It was like a delayed chorus; he'd scream, I'd scream, he'd scr

    Alien: Isolation under the microscope: an excerpt from new companion book Perfect Organism

    In 2014, PC Gamer awarded horror adventure Alien: Isolation Game of the Year , praising its reactive AI and exhaustively faithful environmental design. At the time, staff writer Andy Kelly called it "probably the bravest, most subversive 'AAA' game of the year.".. Read more.

    One of the greatest horror games ever made is less than $10 right now

    A decade ago, in 2014, Creative Assembly put out one of the best horror games ever made. Though the studio is known largely for its work on strategy games like the historical Total War: Pharaoh and Total War: Three Kingdoms alongside the fantasy themed Total War: Warhammer 3, its

    Teaser for the next Alien movie features a youthful cast and more facehuggers than you can shake an M41A Pulse Rifle at

    Look, I won't go so far to say I'm a fan of the last couple of Alien movies—who could forgive the undodgeable space wheel or Michael Fassbender's "I'll do the fingering" line—but I am enough of an apologist to be excited about the next one. All of which is to say, hey, here's the

    Alien Isolation mod adds four more Aliens for some reason

    In terms of games that hit the brief, Alien: Isolation is right up there. All you need for the best Alien game ever is a massive atmospheric space station, a few humans and androids, and one very deadly Alien hunting you from start-to-finish. With all that said, after the first m

    Prey is the perfect blueprint for a killer Predator game

    I'd suffered through too many bad Predator movies to get excited about Prey, but now I'm an evangelist spreading the good news: this is the best Predator movie since Arnie flexed his muscles in the jungle. It's striking but understated, leaving plenty of room between the lavish v
