The Summer Game brouhaha kicks off with a show saturated with space-based horror titles. Saints Rows Boss Factory is a breath of fresh air.
The Summer Gaming Brouhaha is officially upon us. After last week’s State of Play, we now transition this week to the Summer Game Fest and its accompanying conga line of smaller shows. This will eventually culminate in the Xbox showcase on Sunday. The Summer Game Fest, which kicked off yesterday, featured a few fun game reveals, but. well, you may have noticed a pattern. I certainly did. For who knows what reason, the Summer Game Fest was absolutely lousy with space-based sci-fi horror titles. These include Aliens: The Dark Descent, The Callisto Protocol, Fort Solis, and Routine. Apparently several game developers got collectively nostalgic for Dead Space/Alien Isolation/System Shock a few years ago.
