    This is a big step up from the dualshock 3 controller. It has a bunch of new features and really enhances gameplay. My only complaint is the battery life is shorter on this vs the previous iteration.

    The Evil Within is just not interesting. I don't care what is happening to the characters because they're just so bland in The Evil Within. I think so many survival-horror fans like it because there's just a shortage of survival-horror games out there. The characters in this game lack personality and barely/unbelievably question all the wackiness that is going on around them. This just took me out of the experience and I couldn't continue playing.

    Though controversial and having received mixed reviews, I find it to be a very fair horror game that exhibits similarities with the classic franchises Resident Evil and Silent Hill. Very obscure.

    Most of the bad buzz around this game was from children complaining about black bars. Game is fine.

    This game was just what I was looking for. If you want a game that will keep you on the seat of your pants this is it. Play it in the dark by yourself and you will be looking behind you.

    This game is awesome. It's kinda like The Last of Us, but it's also got elements of Silent Hill & Resident Evil. Must buy. Trust me...well, as much as you can from a complete stranger.

    The Evil Within is a great psychological horror game. Fluid and challenging gameplay, puzzles, problem solving and a rush. Basically what you imagined an RE4 sequel would be like.
