The game takes about 15 hours to complete, but more than half of that time is spent wandering around and waiting for something to happen. Even so, I suggest at least trying the game out, through rentals or demos. It’s a game that deserves to be played if only so we can imagine how the series can get better still.
It’s a shame that Isolation doesn’t track stats, because I’d be curious to know how many of its roughly 15-20 hours I spent hiding in lockers, staring at the motion tracker, and, most of all, how many hundreds of times I died without a chance to save myself. It may seem strange to complain that a game’s too long.... Someday, someone is going to make an incredible Alien video game that checks every box. But, sadly, Isolation is not it.
Like its extraterrestrial boogie man, Isolation has its ugly side. On a decent PC, hitting and maintaining a locked 60fps isn't an issue. In contrast, the console versions often plummet below their 30 frames target. Yet tech issues never fundamentally dilute the base pleasure of being seduced by those scares. Before Creative Assembly honoured sci-fi's seminal horror film, there were dozens of Aliens games. Now, there's precisely one Alien game.
