      I wish so much they would do it, but sadly i can't see it happening at this point. Good chance it would not live up to the quality of the original game and even if it was developed by Creative Assembly again, much of the people who were with them involved in this project, are no longer even with CA.

    Nice review, though you failed to mention the biggest improvement of this port that convincingly puts its visuals above other console versions - the TAA. Feral got rid of the horrible pixel shimmer that existed in all other versions of the game, including the unmodded PC version, by improving the anti-aliasing with a temporal solution.

    Speaking of horror games where you need to be cautious and try not to get spotted, I played Remothered, a game I wanted to love since it borrows heavily from the infamous Clock Tower series, but apart from glitches up the wazu it is also plagued with a main character whose normal walking speed is a super slow tip-toe, and since the roaming old man who is after you has super human hearing, you rarely get away with running for very long. The best moment in my playthrough was when the old fart got stuck in a door and I then had complete freedom to run everywhere and solve the puzzles at hand, until the next cutscene respawned him.

    This would be day 1, for me, if it was physical. I have so much to play right now, I don’t need to add to my digital backlog with a relatively pricy port. I DO love all things Alien, and I DID miss this one on 360/PS3 and the subsequent PS4 re-release, so... I’ll wait for a sale, as per your recommendation.

      @@SwitchWatch Ok! There's one issue with the game but can be simply fixed. I beat the game but a few days ago but then now restarted it and the AI Voice Audio was missing. The only way to fix it is by restarting the game until Samuel or Taylor's voice audio is normal. If its normal than the game will be good. If you don't do that then you'll run into similar areas like that, that force you to reload cause the AI's will do nothing at all. So it's best to keep restating at the beginning till the AI voice audios good. That's the only issue though I found out and it took me only 3 restarts to get the game to normal. So go a head and let others know if you want to. Doesn't happen to any DLC.
