Upgrade to a GTX 960 or 980. The minute I upgraded to a 960, I've never looked back.

Hell the 960 is around £160 here and the 980 is almost £400

I barely had the fortitude to make it through the evil space zombie androids, but now I'm at the medical center and I don't wanna play anymore. The alien just dropped from the ceiling and I think I'm gonna just spend the next five minutes or so hiding under a bed to try and figure out if the alien has some kind of pattern. Really though I'm just cowering in terror.

Also the PS4 is objectively more powerful but I don't really know if that matters.

All that said though, if the Xbone has the titles that interest you then you might as well get that, I mean there's no point in buying a console and not playing any games for it because none of them interest you.

Are you thinking of the 500GB or the 1TB PS4?

Update: TFW there's a vent right under you, but it needs power to open, and there are no Rewire Systems anywhere on the map. **** you, game designers.

5 seconds after the first update: And I am dead. The safety of the bed lulled me into a false sense of security.

Ranting to yourself is not helping either.

It comforts me to keep everyone up-to-date on my ordeal. I really think I could get into doing Youtube playthroughs for horror games, as I could pretend I'm talking to someone while playing. And I already have my own built-in schtick.

Last save was before the plot point that summons the alien, so I am now exploring the area where I died, whereas I had previously just gone to where I was going without deviating from my course at all. I have now powered the vents and prepared the area for war, with escape routes plotted out in my mind. In a few minutes, it's gonna be on. Hold me.

I think you'd be great doing youtube walkthroughs and I strongly recommend giving it go.

I would honestly totally give it a shot, but the hardware for recording that **** (game video recording hardware, a decent mic for audio commentary, and preferably a better camera than my ****ty laptop one, since I'm too narcissistic to do all of that and not put my face up on the screen) would run me probably between $250-$300 at least. Unfortunately, even if I had that kinda dough, I would have other things I needed to spend it on. I suppose I could just do some ghetto **** where I point my laptop camera at the screen, but that would suck and I wouldn't be able to use headphones, which would blow.

Holy ****ing god. I was hanging out in the vents under the floor of the medical center for like twenty minutes, looking for a perfect opportunity to come out and make a crouched run for it that never occurred. So I waited until the alien was semi-far away, but still in line of sight of where I wanted it to look, and threw a flare through the open vent door... which hit the side of the vent and landed right on the main floor next to the vent door.

I ran like a bitch to the other side of the vents, only to find that I had gone the wrong way, making me go BACK under the fail vent, and then over to the other side of the map, where I YOLO'd it and just made for the door I had been aiming for this whole time.

Made it... somehow.

And now I can feel my heartbeat. Even though I never even saw the alien after it first dropped from the ceiling all those minutes ago. **** me, this game is so stressful.
