Incorporating something like the Oculus Rift would be absolutely insane. Ans I’d buy it in a heartbeat.

One of the coolest moments I’ve ever heard on a rap album would be the beginning of N.Y. State of Mind when in the background you can hear Nas quietly go “I don’t know how to start this,” and then immediately just run with it.

I literally just finished this game an hour ago, and I think I’ve allowed the experience to sink in. I was completely expecting a horror game when I got it off Steam, and my stomach was in knots throughout the entirely of the playthrough. Sam’s story was touching and I actually felt an emotional connection to her and her plight. The wife’s infidelity/husbands’s writing career were just things to piece together, and the haunted-house backstory could have been fleshed out more. I’ve rarely played a game where I was waiting for something to happen for so long, and your points about it feeling creepy were spot-on. I was anticipating a survival horror game similar to Amnesia, but got an emotional and heart-wrenching story about one family’s struggle to accept their daughter. I loved it, and would give it a solid 9/10, it just felt like it left a lot on the table to be explored.

I would absolutely be up for a mode similar to Diablo III’s hardcore mode. Or an achievement for completing a level without ever stopping. That would certainly test even the best Runners.

That seems to be the plan. The open-world format should allow the developers to branch out without making the gameplay mundane

Absolutely. It really forced you to focus on using the environment.

*short but fun game

Definitely worth a try. Even if you don’t play it on Xbox 360, I picked it up from Steam a few days ago for about $5. It’s a short but fun and full of beautiful artwork.
