Alien Isolation report so far. 2 or so hours in. 1 alien encounter, a few incidents with the other human survivors. Surprisingly intelligent human AI, haven't had enough Alien encounters to judge its AI. Incredibly fucking tense all round. As a result of fantastic sound design and creeping around knowing that most things are 1-hit kill and you have no idea where the next save point will be. Wish I could take a few days off work and play it non-stop!
Yet to try the survivor mode but I think they messed up in making it a time-based objective. The tension is much greater when slowly creeping around the areas. However I found this nice video of the folks over at Escapist, including the chap who does the Zero Punctuation videos which I'm a huge fan of.
