That series was called Dead Space, and it truly captured the horror and claustrophobia that both science fiction classics were so famous for. With games becoming more and more realistic, and even at times are close to being like interactive movies, there was a particular game series that came out in 2008 that one could almost describe as being the lovechild of Aliens and The Thing. Well, helpless of course being a relative term, seeing as usually in games like that your player character had an overload of weaponry to fight them with.
So it will come as no really big surprise then that in my gaming days I always enjoyed games that had an abundance of monstrosities that were unleashed upon a helpless player. The more grotesque or horrifying the creature is, the better I like it.
There’s something that I have always loved about that scene, which probably has something to do with the fact that I’ve always been fascinated by monsters in films and books. Do you remember that scene from Aliens where the young girl Newt says to Ripley: “ My mommy always said there were no monsters-no real ones anyway-but there are, aren’t there?”.
