    The man you're sent to kill is actually you!

    Oh wait, that was Stalker wasn't it?

    I saw a couple of movies of the gameplay and i didnt find all that scary, maybe just playing it. I think the old Alien vs Predator is a lot more scary..

    I love Penumbra trilogy and I'll definitely buy this game.

    And perhaps this is the only game I'm glad is multi-platform: developed for Windows, ported to Linux...

    Playing as the marine was probably the scariest time I have ever spent with a game. It might have had to do with my young age, but damn, trained my clench response quite well!

    The story sounds a bit Lovecraftian, which is always good. I hope the full game lives up to and possibly exceeds the expectations raised by this preview.

    I'd be quite happy if this game didn't detract from its predecessor's much.

    Yeah, "bunny-flavoured lollipops" sounds more scary that the title could ever be!

    As a big fan of the Penumbra series, I'm looking forward to this.
