I'm fine with the blood and gore aspect of horror, I just like it to be for more than just shock value.

Games like Silent Hill, Forbidden Siren, or Project Zero (Fatal Frame) worked the gore and torture in to the lore to the point where every oddity made complete sense.

I don't doubt that Evil Within will try and do the…

Routine?

Yeah, I only learned about it the other day...it's better if you watch the video with a good headset on. The sound design is amazing.

It reminds me so much of a cross between Outlast, Dead Space, System Shock 2, and Moon (the film).

I think I'd go with Logan, if I could get the awesome music from Bastion to go along with it...

Nope.

I've probably gotten into an argument or debate with people in near enough every Evil Within article on Kotaku.

The game looks decent, but it does *not* look like a return to the roots of survival horror...it looks like Resident Evil 4 (which I do not deny was a good game, is still a good game, but was the first…

Yeah, did seem a bit pointless didn't they?

I guess I'd create a system where you had multiple layers, and between each set of walls/fences you'd have the various traps that the trailer shows off.

But that would probably use up so many resources...

Your poor finger...

Thing is, I don't think I've truly been disappointed by a Wolfenstein game (I didn't play the last one though...so no idea if that was any good or not).

The trailers for this one at the very least seem to be implying that it's going back to the quirky over-the-top idea of super technlogically advanced nazis living in a…

Yeah, I'm really hoping it's a good game...

G.I. Joe for grown ups...

Glad to know I'm not the only one that felt a little let down by it.

Still, I'll be interested to see where it goes, and hopefully the sequel won't be too far off...

Since Tomb Raider has been brought up again, I'm just wondering if anybody else has been reading the new Dark Horse comic?

I've mentioned before that I used to collect the original comics back in the day, so I figured I'd try the new one out (especially given that it's supposed to bridge the gap between the new game…

I've been trying my hardest to get in to Burial at Sea Part 2, but I'm struggling. It's just getting used to the different style of gameplay I guess.

It's been good so far, just harder to get in to than previous entries.

Other than that, I'm playing through Diablo 3 with the Crusader, and Reaper of Souls with my…

I've enjoyed the storyline that these trailers have been telling...but they're pretty much the only trailers I've actually liked for TES:O

Question for TES lore-buffs: Has any of this ever been mentioned in previous lore? Like, have Bethesda/Zenimax just retconned stuff, or have they managed to work this MMO in to…

Skip to 4:30 of this video. It has a fairly compelling argument as to why GTA is not satire.

Awesome. Thank you.

There's a brief period around the release of any successful game where people/the media like to call similar games "###-alike" or "###-clone"

For instance "Doom-clone"

The Uncharted series is a highlight of the genre, so games that follow that genre and happen to have polish/look promising will be likened to Uncharted…

I've been tempted for a very long time to get the books. I have near enough everything else...just never grabbed the books.

Yeah, I'm changing fields and heading back to University soon.

The volunteering I do now is to gain experience in the area that I'll be retraining for.

Nope, not funny.

The pretend attacks on both of them is in poor taste, and having been unemployed now for almost 3 years despite training, volunteering, etc...I'd be amazingly pissed off to think I have an interview and then this happens.

Pretty shitty all round.
