The Evil Within

It´s a good game but a bad port, if u want to play it on a modern sistem u have to select windowed mode on properities in Windows, if u didn´t the game starts with a black screen and don´t work.

The climate and story are great. I'm sure that it's a great game, but the port to PC is just annoying. Steering is not converted well, sometimes you just cannot exit the viewing mode when examining windows. Generally speaking, it was most probably a great game on console, but the PC port is done poorly and the game is annoying which doesn't give jus the joy of playing and immersiveness.

Awesome story! If you're the type of person who get's scared from games, you're in for a hoot. I, a masochist, can only play games on the hardest possible difficulty. I play about an hour or two a day, Alt+F4 when I die for the 5th time on the same place and come back the next day

As a Resident Evil connoisseur, this game really strikes the right chord with me. It brings that same level of tension and atmosphere that I love. The performance on my PC is fantastic—runs way smoother than it did on my PS3. Overall, I'm thoroughly enjoying the experience!

I've started it here after finishing it twice on the PS. I'm not giving 5 stars because of perfection, but rather for an exceptionally good interpretation and execution of survival horror. Mind you, this and the following is an opinion. The story is fanastic and original, although very difficult to grasp at first. I'd say you fully unterstand what's happening when paying close attention to what's said and seen, reading everything you find and start a 2nd playthrough with the gathered knowledge and observations. Additionally, the DLC's reveal a lot aswell, don't play them first. Replaying the game is additionally somewhat encouraged by the opportunity to unlock more skills and weapons, for example to face a higher difficuly. Especially for being 10 years old, it graphically still looks stunning and the voice acting is decent for the most part. I haven't encountered bugs or crashes so far, being in chapter 4 or 5 with this version. Yes it's a console port and you will notice that while playing. In my experience (and as said i've played it on console) it is far better than often decribed in reviews. Some stuff, like aiming with the mouse obviously, is even easier this way and you'll be thankful for every bullet or bolt you don't waste with controller aim. Some are complaining about the boss encounters. For the most part (i'd say everything up the the endgame) they are original and fun, if you like a challenge where not only bullets count but occationally your brain aswell. And the only real nasty boss foe who can one-hit you, is in most encounters totally optional to defeat or even fight. Stealth is a big thing in this game, but optional. What's, especially later in the game, not always optional is shooting you way through. Whatever you like, stealth or guns blazing, you'll definitely find both. Also, this version comes with the pre-order bonus, which are some neat little extras to help you out a little bit when facing this nightmare-ish journey.
