Until Dawn Review | Clickonline

Clickonline writes: "Until Dawn is a bit of a triumph in everything from its glorious tech to its simultaneous skewering and service to horror. It’s a sterling example of what an interactive movie can be an absolute must for genre fans. Just try to keep everyone alive"

This game is getting amazing reviews, it makes me look forward to picking it up.

triple_c3178d ago

Wow, another perfect score. Sadly NONE of the perfect scores that this game is getting will appear on Metacritic but reviews from clickbait sites and blogs that people have never heard of like Digital Spy, Level7.nu and Quarter to Three will get approved. Idk why this game is a 79. This game deserves a Metacritic above an 80 at the very least but sadly Metacritic won't count any of the good reviews that this game is getting. It's almost seems as if Metacritic is purposely doing this to underscore this game

uth113178d ago

Until Dawn made it to 80 on Metacritic. It would be a little higher, but apparently their review system is weighted so some big name site(s) are holding the score down

Kratos0Ultra3178d ago

It's a bad system in my opinion. As those so-called reviewers always defend themselves saying "its just their opinion." That hardly sounds professional and therefore I think that all reviews should have the same weight in order to make things fair.

triple_c3178d ago (Edited 3178d ago )

It's back at 79 because some site called Toronto Sun gave it a 7 today.. See? This is what I'm talking about. This game has gotten a lot of perfect scores and not 1 perfect review of this game has been added to their site. They are not adding all the good and perfect reviews that this game is getting to their site but they're quick to add average or mediocre reviews from clickbait sites like Toronto Sun or sites no one has ever heard of..

TheDrunkenJester3178d ago

5/5 Seems a little too high, I'm liking the 80 on Meta, it feels about right for this game. Personally after playing it through twice I would rate it in the low 7's, but that's just my opinion.

guyman3178d ago

Luckily your opinion doesnt count

TheDrunkenJester3178d ago

It doesn't count to you I guess, anyone's opinion doesn't matter if you don't like what the person says about something you hold dear...

I've played it twice, platinumed it, and will continue playing it 10/10 for me.

TheDrunkenJester3178d ago

Really? Honest question here... I beat it twice and once I realized my choices mean nothing in the end (besides who is alive and runs out the door) I felt cheated, because I was told my choices actually would change the outcome.

So my question is how after you platinumed the game and know the story can you keep playing this game and have fun? It's like watching a horror movie over and over when you already know the twist, but instead of it being over in 2 hours it's 6-8 hours of something you already know is going to happen...

Officialxandr3178d ago (Edited 3178d ago )

@thedrunkenjester Yes! I keep seeing new scenes and different dialogue. I love these types of games so I will dissect it to extinction!

Ristul3178d ago

It has one negative review on Metacritic, no big surprise that it's the biased Digital Spy that is the culprit.

TheDrunkenJester3178d ago

Well to be honest I wouldn't have rated it all that high either, just not my type of game.

TricksterArrow3178d ago

Go home DrunkenJester, you're drunk. You're making a fool of yourself.

MasterCornholio3178d ago

That's like asking someone who hates soccer for his opinion on a soccer game.

What I'm saying is that if it isn't your type of game then why did you buy it?

I mean COD isn't my type of game so I never buy it. So why didn't you just avoid the game if you don't like the genre?

blakstarz3178d ago

This game seems like it plays like Heavy Rain...which is AWESOME! I'm definitely getting this!

gangsta_red3178d ago

Plays way better than Heavy Rain.

Officialxandr3178d ago

Agreed I love Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls but Until Dawn is unparalleled so far.

Doesn't look any different to the ps4 version. Hope it's not another lazy Sony remaster a.k.a remake.

Andy_Dee91d ago (Edited 91d ago )

Wrong, they even showed it on the last State of Play and I just played it the month before since I wanted to go back to it.

It does look better and more cleaned up, it's not a remake at least what they said. They said remaster so this article is wrong from the info I've heard.

Until Dawn is getting remastered to coincide with the live-action movie.

So not a Lazy remake and yes it looks better! :)

CrimsonWing6991d ago

It’s pretty different looking.

Neonridr91d ago

I'm sure it's a fair upgrade seeing as it's UE5 now. That being said, the original was not ugly by any stretch and I can't fully understand the need to remake this other than a cash grab to coincide with the movie that is coming eventually.

Crows9091d ago

Please point to me to a lazy remake?

Hedstrom91d ago

A good game, had some fps troubles on ps4. So hopefully thats ironed out with some better looking graphics.

solideagle91d ago

I think Sony should rename PlayStation to RemakeStation. I am a Playstation fan but this is getting ridiculous. I think this is the weakest gen software-wise compared to all other gen.

PS2 > PS3 > PS1 > PS4 > PS5

Battlestar2391d ago

Agreed. Sony has released only remasters/remakes of games and noting new. MS has released so many new games i don't have the time to name the all.

solideagle91d ago

I have never owned or cared about Xbox, so I don't have any opinion about that. if you say that MS has released then I believe you I guess

Terry_B91d ago

Ratchet & Clank, Spider-Man 2, Gran Turismo 7, Helldivers 2 , Horizon Forbidden West to name a couple.

And what Microsoft released in the last couple of years was way beyond the league of those listed games.

MrNinosan91d ago

Ratchet & Clank, Returnal, Spider-Man 2, Gran Turismo 7, Helldivers 2, God of War Ragnarök, Horizon Forbidden West to mention a few of the good ones.
Then everything on PSVR2.
Then we have the bad ones, like Destruction AllStars and medium ones like Sackboy: A Big Adventure.

On top of that, there are lots of third party games.

Compare that to MS.
Redfall, MS Flight Simulator, Forza Horizon 5, Forza Motorsport, Starfield, HiFi Rush. Did I miss anything?

Now lets compare the games, and see which console had the best start this generation.

solideagle91d ago

I think Sony should have abandoned the PS4. we have not seen true PS5 potential yet. where are those games that would load Assets from SSD where the character is looking <-- Mark Cerny

I hope all new games from Sony Studios are PS5 only from now...

CrimsonWing6991d ago

What’s worse is this gen is almost over, if you can believe it.

staticall91d ago

@solideagle
I completely agree with you. At first it was like «Hey, so cool, i've never played this game and it's getting a remake, means it'll be much better!» but now it's «Come on, i was just playing that, it still looks and plays just fine». I want to play new games, try new experiences, hear new stories from new characters. It's like gaming companies have hired George Lucas as a consultant or something.

@Battlestar23
> MS has released so many new games i don't have the time to name the all
Suuuuuuuure, dude. Come on, be real.

Felix_Argyle_Catbro91d ago

Looks like the PS4 version. Lol, that'd be 70 bucks.

Machina90d ago

Cheap and quick way to fill in the release calendar in-between major new games - that's why pretty much all the major publishers have been doing it.

This is a fun game. But remaking this is lazy. A cheap remaster while a new game is being developed would have had more value for the customer.

EvertonFC106d ago

Yeah I here ya, I'm on the fence tbh as I think the haptics could be really cool but it seems a little early.
I guess it's to tie in with the movie release so makes sense somewhat.

outsider1624106d ago

This over Killzone remake? Or Socom 2 remake?

monkey602106d ago

Less effort and there's a movie release to tie into.
I am very tired of all these remakes and remasters of games from recent years. If they're going to remake anything it should be a lot older.

Chevalier106d ago

If the Resistance trilogy on PS3 was being remade I would buy that day 1. Really hope the franchise returns along with Killzone

JEECE106d ago

Socom 2 remake wouldn't be worth the effort. I don't know the exact number it finally sold, but from looking at articles from a few years after launch, it looks to have gotten in the ballpark of 3 million. It has been twenty years now so many of those people probably don't even play games anymore, and the people who play multiplayer games now would start whining about Socom about three weeks after launch about how "there isn't enough content" and "they just sent it out to die." Granted, it would probably develop a small but dedicated player base from the old crowd who want a stable, solid multiplayer game instead of a live service, but that isn't a lucrative proposition for Sony.

EvertonFC106d ago (Edited 106d ago )

It was the same when millions of gamers asked for a sly remake then when the game came out it sold like 10,000 copies.
Sometimes we think we want the old games then in reality nobody ever buys it 😂🤣

outsider1624106d ago

You have a point though. I guess we want it because of nostalgia. Was hoping we'd get a socom with a good single player and ofcourse multiplayer, maybe it'll sell well.
