Getting in Your Head: Brian Plays THE EVIL WITHIN

I LOVE horror games (shocker, I know), and I just spent the past few months revisiting two of my all-time favorites, Dead Space and Dead Space 2. When I finally put them to rest, I was looking for something to play when the ads for The Evil Within 2 started coming out. I'd played about ten minutes of the first game, so I decided to go back to that one and play through it so I could eventually get the sequel as well. I'm glad I decided to give The Evil Within another shot, because it's great. I've started a let's play series, and you can watch the first episode of[...]

Let’s Play SOMA for #OctFearFest (Ep. 3)

My October Fear Fest series of let's plays continues this week with the third installment of SOMA.  For those that missed the first couple episodes, you can watch them here. If you haven't heard of SOMA, it's a survival horror game where the main character finds himself in an underwater research facility with no idea how he got there or how to get home. The game brings to mind equal parts BIOSHOCK  and DEAD SPACE for me. I'm playing through SOMA for #OctFearFest, and I’ll be posting the episodes both here are over at my gaming site, Co-Op Critics throu[...]

Let’s Play UNTIL DAWN for #OctFearFest (Ep. 3)

My October Fear Fest series of let's plays continues this week with the second installment of UNTIL DAWN.  For those that missed the first couple episodes, you can watch them here. If you haven't heard of UNTIL DAWN, it's essentially a game where you as the player are directing your own slasher film. Every choice that you make has a ripple effect on the story, and who lives and dies will do so because of your decisions (or lack thereof). For #OctFearFest, I'm doing a let’s play series with UNTIL DAWN, and I’ll be posting the episodes both here are over[...]

Let’s Play SOMA for #OctFearFest

October is the month of horror, and I'm playing two excellent--but very different--horror games this month. Last week I posted the first episode of my UNTIL DAWN let's play, which is basically a slasher movie you get to play through. This week is the first episode of my playthrough of SOMA, a very atmospheric horror game that brings to mind equal parts BIOSHOCK  and DEAD SPACE for me. For #OctFearFest, I’ll be playing through all of SOMA, and I’ll be posting the videos both here are over at my gaming site, Co-Op Critics throughout the month. You’ll a[...]

Let’s Play UNTIL DAWN for #OctFearFest (Ep. 1)

In addition to being a huge horror fan, I'm a lifelong gamer. So, anytime those two interests can overlap, it makes me very, very happy. And it just so happens that a game arrived recently that not only combines my love of horror and games, but does so with my favorite kind of horror movie--the slasher film. UNTIL DAWN is a game where you as the player are essentially directing your own slasher film. Every choice that you make has a ripple effect on the story, and who lives and dies will do so because of your decisions (or lack thereof). For #OctFearFest, I'll[...]
