Abstract: Classified as a survival horror/stealth game instead of an action shooter, Alien: Isolation differs significantly from last year's Alien: Colonial Marines in that there is just one Alien who can't be killed, requiring you to employ stealth tactics. Altho...

Abstract: Recently, more games are making the jump to film than publishers are making movie games. But that wasn't always the case. From the 90s to the late 2000s, we were blessed with some of the best movie video games after, what seemed like, almost every single...
