I will say I'm dissappointed with the Meta, but not that surprised, I thought it could go as low as 87, which it could still hit. What made me happy is: it's scary, takes 10-12 hours for a single playthrough, and there is some replayability. I love survival horror so that is enough for me to keep my pre-order. I've enjoyed a ton of low 80's (even some high 70's) games this gen, so I'm cool.

the game is 6-7 hours long.

like i said remedy put to much into graphics and not enough in graphics-value.

Being in 3rd place never felt so good

A very very positive review from Kotaku.... I don't like how scary they say it is!

I have a review copy, I' just finished Episode 2 (all the game is 6 Episodes plus the available on launch DL episode) and I'm already 5 1/2 hours in.

The wind blowing through the woods and the swirling mist suckin you in, is like nothing you 've ever seen in a videogame.
