All things considering, I'm amazed people even gave Alien: Isolation a second look after Colonial Marines.
Alien Isolation is AWESOME, provided you don't mind dying over & over & over again. I'm not super far into in (currently in the middle of 8 straight shifts, 7 of which are 8a - 8p), but there was one level where you set off an alarm & have to get to a certain point while the Alien hunts you while humans hunt you at the same time. I probably died a dozen times.
Alien in the vent.
Alien walked out of a door I was sneaking by.
Alien turned around while I was sneaking behind it as it killed the other humans.
Alien in a different vent.
Alien pulled me out from under a table.
Alien came out of ******* nowhere and stabbed me through the heart with its tail.
Shot by humans.
Died in a fire.
etc.
The tension, lighting, sound, & the world of Alien are all fantastic though. Reminds me a bit of the first Bioshock, but scarier.
