It's amazing, looks amazing.
So much atmosphere, the city sound effects really add to that eerie feeling. Every corner I keep peering round, wondering what the heck is waiting for me.
Got to say, and I won't spoil anything here, but the early rooftop scenes are frickin amazing - that flyover :eek:
Underwear still white :D

Oh my goodness, this is amazing. Even better than I hoped, even better than I thought it could be. Only a few minutes in and I had already yelled 'oh ****' at something, out loud, it made me jump.

It's brilliant, something as simple as knocking a lamp off a table with your hand is so satisfying, it feels and sounds real.

I picked up a hardhat in a building site and tried to put it on my head not thinking it would work, now I've been wearing a hardhat for the last few minutes. Gravity gloves are great fun, I'm grinning while flicking objects. This is so good.

This is it.

I did one better than that, I put a cone on my head and walked around like that for a while :D :D :D

The hardhats are actually pretty good protection

if you accidentally walk into a barnacle, they'll take just the hat instead

I think it will play just fine. Enjoy it :)

Working fine, just the odd stutter now and again but loads better than I envisaged - still looks incredible. This is the game I have been waiting for - HL2 was epic, and this has now taken the series to the next level. I think I stood on the balcony for about 10 minutes just in awe before I even moved.

Loving this so far, done the first 4 or 5 parts I think. Had a panic with a face hugger and loading a gun, it's quite tense. Playing using a Quest and linked to my pc with a 1070, smooth as anything and looks great.
