014 - Alien: Isolation
Welcome to Geekscape\u2019s newest gaming podcast, Xbox Game Passengers.\n\nEvery other Wednesday, host Derek and a guest will dissect and discuss just one game available on Microsoft\u2019s Game Pass service, which was chosen for them completely at random.\n\nWhether it\u2019s a magical or a horrible experience, they\u2019ll force themselves through it, share their thoughts, and let you know whether or not the game is worth your time! At the end of each episode, they\u2019ll also randomly select the game for the following show.\n\nThis time around, John is back (yes, again) to discuss survival horror gem, Alien Isolation. John hates horror, and Derek has been trying to get him to play or watch numerous scary IPs over the near-decade that they've known each other. This is the first time that he's said yes.\n\nHow did he react? Well, you know how to find out.\n\nDiscover the true meaning of fear in Alien: Isolation, a survival horror set in an atmosphere of constant dread and mortal danger. Fifteen years after the events of Alien\u2122, Ellen Ripley\u2019s daughter, Amanda enters a desperate battle for survival, on a mission to unravel the truth behind her mother's disappearance.\n\nAs Amanda, you will navigate through an increasingly volatile world as you find yourself confronted on all sides by a panicked, desperate population and an unpredictable, ruthless Alien.\n\nUnderpowered and underprepared, you must scavenge resources, improvise solutions and use your wits, not just to succeed in your mission, but to simply stay alive.\n\nWe\u2019ve had a blast making Xbox Game Passengers so far, and we really hope that you\u2019re enjoying it too!
