Well, he's right, the screenshots are fugly. But maybe it means the gameplay will be awesome.

Those screenshots looked OK to me.

Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

I think there's a good chance this will turn out more like Resident Evil in space than a new System Shock.

Necorposting, but this was at E3 and had some nice gameplay montage.

Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

I just hope they cut down on the "scare triggers", you know, when you walk through a hallway, hit a certain spot and a monster plops out the wall next to you. Really annoying.

I have to say, this game looks really cool. The premise is pretty interesting in the fact that your character isn't the typical space marine, you're just some Joe who is trying to survive. It seems like playable reactions are at a minimum right now, but I was listening to some of the 1up yours podcasts and those guys seemed pretty excited from what they had seen. A few even said that after E3 the game's now more on their radar than before...

I get the feeling horror games might not be for you. :)

As long as it is scary...

This is the part that I worry about as it could just mean that they're going the easy route of bad horror movies where stuff jump out from around corners making a lot of noise, it scares me, but not in the good and fun way.

I hear you. After watching some gameplay movies, I'm a bit worried. The game seems to be heavily scripted, plus the monster design is uncreative. One charms that System Shock 2 had with it's spawning points was this certain unpredictability. You never were save, every time some zombie could pop up in those tight corridors. Another thing that made Shock2 so scary was simply the remaining human being part inside the zombies. In Dead Space, they're just silly "The Thing" monsters, men with tentacles. Meh. Oh yeah and then there's the 3rd person view. I like FPV more, the cam is closer to the event. Always better that way.

Anyway, I'll keep an eye on it. If the demo convinces me, it's gonna be a must buy.

I love scary games, and I hate that tactic. There's shallow scary and deep scary.

Precisely, mr. Pidsco!

 

 

Getting "scared" that way is about as fun as being awakened in the middle of the night by a friend blasting an airhorn in your face. You just get angry and/or irritated.
