I personally didn't find it that scary, but it's level of polish out does that of most survival horror games.
GRAPHICS 8/10
-Compared to other modern games released with it, these visuals weren't really anything to be amazed by. Still, the game had nice and crisp textures. It had great lighting and spectacular effects when in space.
SOUND 10/10
-Yes, this is what the game is highly praised for, the sound. It's true, the game has a very atmospheric sound to it. My favorite is how the sound changes when in outer space like with the gunshots. Also, the voice acting is great here too. In fact, it lives up to half life voice acting.
STORY 8/10
-The story starts out a little generic. But as it goes on, it gets really interesting. You discover some horrifying secrets and there are some moments that will leave you saying "wtf just happened!?" So yeah, great story with a very surprising ending.
-HORROR 7/10
The first few levels, I was scared like a little girl. But as you go on, it doesn't really get that scary. The only way to be scared the whole game is by playing on the hardest difficulty. Then, you will truly get the survival horror experience.
-GAMEPLAY 9/10
This game is awesome. Granted, it's really just resident evil in space. But resident evil games are awesome and take that with some more elements that resident evil didn't have. Then you got yourself an awesome game. It isn't a perfect game, but hey no game is. Seriously, this game is a masterpiece. Get it.
