‘Alien: Isolation’ Will Look Identical On Xbox One and PS4
Afraid October 7th will arrive and you won’t be able to decide which platform you should get Alien: Isolation on? Assuming you have a PS4 and/or Xbox One, or are planning on grabbing one and/or the other by October, developer Creative Assembly is making the decision an easy one.
According to Gary Napper, lead game designer on Isolation, both current-gen versions will look “identical”. Obviously, that doesn’t extend to the last-gen versions, but at least we won’t need to worry about varying frame-rates or all that other technical junk that seems to plague so many new releases these days.
The news comes from a chat with Official Xbox Magazine, where Napper confirmed “There’s no noticeable drop or change in graphics between [the PS4 and Xbox One].”
Napper describes the game as being “platform agnostic”, because “I only think about the differences between platforms and the different mechanics we can use like the light on the PS4 pad and the stuff with Kinect 2.0.” So unless you really want to use the Xbox One’s Kinect or have a certain controller preference, it won’t matter which version of the game you get.
Alien: Isolation will release on PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One on October 7.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
