I still want my Jones the Cat game where you have to lure the Alien out and evade it by using the stupid humans looking for you.

I've heard pewdiepie is actually a rather nice person in reality, but he puts on an act on youtube because... that's what the youtube community want apparently.

I've noticed the Alien isn't nearly as aggressive and rubberbandy when you just walk everywhere and only crouch when you can see it or know it's right around the corner. But if you try to take it cautiously every time, it will stick around and not give you any breathing room.

Oh wow. I know this isn't exactly related to this game but there wasn't a dedicated thread on the Alien franchise in Cinema Discusso, but I had no idea that Lambert in the first movie was actually MtF. It somehow manages to make her already messed up death scene seem a little more messed up.

ImpAtom posted:I was about to ask where you heard this but apparently it's on the Aliens Anthology blu-ray. It's an odd factoid, I wonder where it originated. Yeah I saw it on the AvP Wiki and then checked where they sourced it from.

Of all the Alien related movies, I think Prometheus would be my least favorite if it wasn't for AvP 2. That whole movie was so disjointed and unfocused that I really had to question what the point of the movie actually was; completely unnecessary. Still, it didn't have an Alien forcing down chestbursters down the throats of pregnant women like in AvP 2 which was just a totally joyless, malicious movie.

Hunterhr posted:Not to mention the pred alien snacking on newborn babies. I don't get it either. For all of the first AvP's faults, it was at least an entertaining popcorn flick and it was cool to see Predators kick the rear end of Aliens. Then AvP 2 comes out and it seems to think it needs to be DmC levels of edgy to attract audiences.

Periodiko posted:They weren't, though. Not only was the mission a secret vanity project to an undisclosed location for an undisclosed purpose, but the crew members were actively lied to about what they were doing. On top of that, Weyland explicitly doesn't care about the science. Literally the only reason the ship is going there is in the desperate hope that they'll be able to find someone or something that can save him from death. The crew are entirely expendable, and there is no real scientific mission. You're putting too much thought into the motives behind Prometheus I think when the real excuse is that the movie is just stupid, ill thought out and completely devoid of any memorable characters besides David. I mean, Ridley Scott's reasoning for the Engineer/Space Jockey wanting to kill all of humanity is because Jesus was a Space Jockey and we crucified him for crying out loud.

Shima Honnou posted:Given everything is pretty much TriOp controlled aboard the Von Braun and the Rickenbacker in SS2, I imagine the guns break so easily so they can sell you more guns at ridiculous prices. The only thing they make that lasts forever is some of the glass. The funny thing is though, that Stealth was kind of somewhat possible to do in System Shock 2 because it used the same engine as the Thief series. So long as you sticked to the shadows, The Many had trouble finding you. But I don't think that was intended and it was just a holdover from using The Dark Engine which was designed for Thief.

Shadoer posted:Yeah, it's pretty clear that Ridley Scott and the writers really did envision a very different movie and studio meddling really did improve things. the original version looks like was going to be more focused around idiotic scientists and technobable who open pandora's box and fight an alien with a see through skull dome which changed color and overall appearance every time they saw it. And they'd see it a lot, with lots of lighting, all the time. And then everyone died at the end. Idiotic scientists and technobabble who open pandora's box and fight an alien with a skull-like dome sounds an awful lot like Prometheus to me.

I know this isn't exactly the right thread and there used to be a general Horror Games thread that I think got lost to the archives, but another old horror movie series is getting a new video game. http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news...in-development/

Guess my eyes missed it! Thanks! DialTheDude posted:At the end of every Chapter/Stage, the loading screen text will say "You win...for now." How about a character whose skill is throwing rocks at Jason but always at such an arc that it will always go over his head?

Xenomrph posted:So what you're saying is the Alien is like a cat. Drop a cat toy at your feet and it'll mercilessly assault your leg, but knock over something big and it'll scamper off to hide (and jump you when you least expect it). How did you think Jones managed to survive?

Stealth horror games is a much harder sell to casual gamers than first person shooters as well. That and people were burned by Colonial Marines and probably avoided Isolation for thinking it was poo poo despite having completely different developers as well.

Colonial Marines is considered canon so Hicks is still alive at least.

prussian advisor posted:So without reading the entire thread and exposing myself to spoilers, is this game generally considered good? The reviews seem to be all over the place and after Dying Light in particular, I try not to write off even semi-consistent negative reviews if the underlying concept seems promising, and it certainly does here. This would be the PS4 version. The negative reviews mostly seem to be "it's too hard it sucks" more than anything. There are pacing problems but most people consider it to be an excellent game with one or two humps that put people off, like the Medical section of the game.

I kind of liked Alien 3 but if this means Colonial Marines can no longer be canon then so be it.
