We are hugely excited to announce The Dark Pictures Anthology - a series of intense, standalone cinematic horror games. The first game is Man of Medan coming to PS4, Xbox and PC in 2019.

Main character looks like Shaun Ashmore from Quantum Break

Looks great. Massive Triangle vibes from it.

I strawberry floating loved Until Dawn on the PS4.

The Inpatient was okay-ish. So can’t wait for this!

You would have thought that somebody, at some point in the creative process, would have pointed out what the word anthology actually means.

Didn't they say that each game under that banner would be a total different story with different characters?

OK. But that’s still not an anthology.

Merriam Webster has it down as a synonym for "assortment" which seems appropriate here.

And their definition of assortment is “a collection of assorted things...”

This isn’t a collection. It might be, one day. But I don’t encourage their hubris.

Anyway, back to the game, which looks pretty decent.

It does look great though. I strawberry floating adored Until Dawn, which made a fantastic game to pay through with flatmates. The best late 90s/early 2000s horror film never made.

I’d really have liked to play that. Looks very much my kind of thing. Very pleased that this one is coming to Xbox.

Yeah! And this was without the phone app stuff of the Play Link mechanic they developed for Hidden Agenda (which I'm not sure if they're using here tbh but I hope they are).

So what’s Black Mirror then?

So got this.

And there are achievements/trophies that can be only unlocked in ONLINE mode. Which kinda sucks. And only the host can unlock them as well. Some collectibles can be only found in two player online. :fp:

Is anyone getting this for the PS4, and fancy trying get those trophies out of the way (after a blind run of course.)

Got this too. Love the fact there's a 'pass the pad' mode; going through it with the wife and so far so good. Cheesy ass horror gooseberry fool, very similar in tone to Until Dawn.

After two play throughs, I would say it’s a disappointment. It’s not as good as Until Dawn.

If that ends up as the general consensus then Until Dawn is looking increasingly like it was a flash in the pan.
