Alien Isolation

How do you guys feel about the upcoming Alien game, Alien Isolation?

Personally, I love survival horror so I'm going to keep my eye on it but I won't buy it until I read some reviews.

I'm glad someone finally figured out how to make an Alien game.  It is perfect for Survival Horror.  I hope it's great. 
Now, I probably won't play it.  I don't really like survival horror.  I'd rather blow stuff up.

Well people were excited for colonial marines when that was announced, look what happened to that

That's why I'm really hesitant about buying it. But then again Gearbox tends to make shitty games for a series they weren't originally a part of, e.g., counter strike: Condition Zero, Duke Nukem, Sambra De Amigo, Aliens Infestation, Half Life: Decay, Half Life: Blue Shift...etc.

The only thing that concerns me is that The Creative Assembly has primarily made real time strategies games for the past decade.

To begin, I am really excited.

Now, I remember the Alien Colonial Marine fiasco very well. For a while, I was helping to write on Sega Addicts (a fan site). If you listen to our early podcasts, there is SO much optimism and confidence in the game and Gear Box. This was crushed. Just utterly crushed. Luckily SEGA fans are used to being optimistic and then crushed. We call it the Sonic cycle.

Just remember, you can't spell aliens without an L, I, E, and a S.

But they fool me every time. I legitimately think it will be good this time. I am going to buy it very early on. I'm excited.

I'm interested, but I don't like non-combat oriented survival horror games like Outlast and Amnesia which this is gonna be more like that.  The setting might be good enough to pull me in though.
