It’s that time of year again, when people watch horror movies and prepare to shit themselves under the guise of enjoyment. If you are that person, or you’ve cleverly convinced someone to go on this journey with you, I have the perfect accompaniment: Alien Isolation.
Probably the best thing ever made by Creative Assembly, Alien: Isolation is an aural and visual assault on the pants, whether you’re running away from pesky androids, shivering in a locker and holding your breath, or just listening to the soundtrack.

Alien: Isolation had broken again.”]
