Alright, let me get right down and dirty with Outlast. I decided to check out this game after watching the Sourcefednerd crew play the game. If this game could make Meg Turney cry, I just have to check it out. I was trying to figure out the best way to describe the game, so check out the synopsis below:
“In the remote mountains of Colorado, horrors wait inside Mount Massive Asylum. A long-abandoned home for the mentally ill, recently re-opened by the “research and charity” branch of the transnational Murkoff Corporation, has been operating in strict secrecy…until now. Acting on a tip from an inside source, independent journalist Miles Upshur breaks into the facility and what he discovers walks a terrifying line between science and religion, nature and something else entirely. Once inside, his only hope of escape lies with the terrible truth at the heart of Mount Massive.”
PROS:
- Decent graphics.
- Scare factor.
- Decent play time.
- Semi-unique characters.
CONS:
- Unoriginal story.
- Repetitive gameplay.
