I got it.

Recent Alien games have had you playing as a gun toting marine, with enough firepower to level a small planet, dusting Xenomorphs off left right and center, every one of them failing to capture just what the Xenomorph is capable of.

Its a graceful, deadly killing machine that you do not mess with.

Never has a game had me so much on the edge of my seat, the atmosphere of the station is incredible, the creeks and groans of the structure seemingly caving under the pressures of space is unsettling enough but coupled with flickering lights, burst pipes and sparking electrics just has you scared witless.

The sound design is on another level, even the vent openings sound like they have been pulled directly from the first film.

Then the Xeno shows up, less said about that the better for fear of ruining the effect, but when it does, you feel definitely feel vulnerable.

If you havnt got it and you like the films, specifically the first one.

Its a no brainer, get it.

Game of the year for me.
