The Games Company (straightforward name) has today announced the digital debut of its third-person horror shooter series, Afterfall. Afterfall: Insanity will be releasing for PC, Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network early next year, and it's looking suitably f*cked up.
Afterfall has a premise very similar to Metro 2033, in that it's a post-apocalyptic horror shooter set in spooky underground tunnels. All kinds of monstrosities lurk in the sewers and it's up to a guy who looks a bit like a Warhammer 40K Space Marine to deal with them.
Yet again, Afterfall looks set to bring a serious and robust game to the digital market, and while it certainly doesn't seem too original, it does look rather demented. Demented's always good in our book, so we're quite looking forward to seeing where this one goes.

Looks interesting, I'll have to try.
Is it a good game, though? Well, I guess we'll find out.
I certainly didn't find any of it to be particularly weird or scary, however.
I couldn't have said it any better myself.
"I hope it's not as ordinary as Metro 2033 turned out to be."
You can't be serious, right? In what way is Metro ordinary?
I'm up for this.
Anyway, I don't see what looks interesting about this. Seems pretty derivative... like a mix of Fallout with the power armor, Metro 2033 with the setting, and Dead Space with the monsters.
Actually Metro 2033 was pretty good, in its own right. It still had its own cool ideas, that others have missed.
