Biggest problem for me is will they be able to sustain the game for the purported 10 hours it's supposed to last?
There's only so much running and hiding you can do before the game becomes repetitive. Or maybe they'll follow the template of the Alien film, where the first half or so is spent setting up the horror show of the second half.
Only problem with this approach is we're all so familiar with the Alien.

You see, I dont mind walking about an abondoned ship, that sounds like heaven to me. Reading all the logs and stuff from Doom 3 at start was best part. I'm guessing first few hours is exploring, next few hiding and last few getting things in place while still hiding to work out how to kill it, possibly collecting things together for a 'trap'.

As I've never been too hot on Aliens and always preferred Alien, this game looks more up my street.

Hopefully if this turns out good, they'll be given a bash at Aliens.

As a non deaf gamer, I shall also gooseberry fool bricks and possibly only play it in broad daylight.

Yeah, but you would be able to hear it scratching/skittering/chatter and knew it's coming.
I'll probably go... sneak, sneak, sneak, sneak, sneak... OH gooseberry fool as the alien grabbed me and put its penis-chomper through my chest.

My hopes are already through the roof, people who have actually played it say it's great, unlike Colonial Marines.

The thread on here was more entertaining than the game. One of the best threads we've ever had.
