There are some pretty cool games in December’s Xbox Games with Gold. Paying subscribers to Xbox Live can grab four games for “free;” the two games for the Xbox 360 are backward compatible, so you can play them on your Xbox One as well. Remember, these are only free if you have an Xbox Live Gold subscription.
Outlast 2 developer Red Barrels released a demo for their upcoming horror game yesterday in Xbox One, Playstation 4, and PC. I sat down for a late night playthrough to see if the demo could bring the scares. It does.
Our favorite games are often the ones that made us feel these really cool, powerful things. How’d you feel when you met your first Colossus or saw Rapture for the first time? I think the best games stick with us because everything about them, from mechanics to presentation, is all about crafting that perfect, powerful…
The first thing you’ll hear in the premiere of YouTube Red’s new show Scare Pewdiepie is its host, Felix Kjellberg, screaming. Of course it is.
Few games shook me the way Outlast did in 2013, so it pleases me greatly that we’re finally getting a sequel next year.
You don't have to be afraid of missing out on Outlast's scream-inducing fun any more, Xbox One fans. It's now available on Microsoft's latest console, Major Nelson announced in a blog post this morning. The terrifying survival horror game made it through our latest revision of the PS4 bests list, so Xbox One owners…
There's a fine line any artist walks when trying to titillate and terrify at the same time. But making video games scary is especially tricky. Repetitive behavior—even when that behavior is running and hiding from flesh-eating monsters—doesn't mesh all that well with the spontaneity required to make someone jump out…
Outlast was one of the best and most disturbing surprises of 2013. Whistleblower, a prequel out this week, is less surprising but no less terrifying. The new chapter offers up a fresh batch of blood-drenched bad guys that will make any horror buff cower in delightful fear.
Here is the trailer for Outlast:Whistleblower, the prequel DLC for the excellent horror survival game Outlast:
Buckle Up: Outlast's "Whistleblower" DLC is coming to PC and PS4 in April. It'll tell the story of Waylon Park, the source who contacted the protagonist of the main game. Judging by this screenshot, it will probably be super scary. We recently added the main game to our PS4 Bests List, and I can't wait to play more.…
It cost one video game company $35,000 to be featured in one of Conan O'Brien's Clueless Gamer segments. Re/Code reports that the late night talk show receives payment from game companies for some of the segments, with confirmation that horror game Outlast paid to be part of a three-game scare-focused spotlight.
To get in the spirit of Halloween, Conan O'Brien checks out some scary PC games in the dark.
This isn't the usual watch-someone-scream-at-the-jumpy-moments kind of "let's play" videos you're used to on YouTube (though I'll throw in the headphone users beware warning because it's still in there). It's a bunch of friends saying silly things because alcohol and friendship will do that.
When Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs and Outlast launched a week apart from each other, I was not going to play them. I’m a wimp when it comes to getting scared, so the idea of subjecting myself to hours of cowering in the dark while terrifying creatures hunted me down? Please, not going to happen.
Public attitudes regarding mental illness are frequently apocryphal and damaging, and a major source of these views is media portrayal of a topic that affects all of us to some extent.
This is Outlast, a first-person, combat-free horror game about investigating an asylum.
We caught a first look at it a couple of weeks back, but here's a longer, better look at Outlast, an upcoming survival horror game from Red Barrels, a new studio made up of former Assassin's Creed, Uncharted and Splinter Cell developers.
Red Barrels are a new studio based in Montreal. You've likely never heard of them, but there is some serious talent there.
