Anyone else seen much about the PS4 exclusive game Until Dawn? It's a survival horror game based around 8 friends staying at a mountain resort who u play as each one, catch is any or all can die within the game. It plays like a slasher movie but interactive. It's got me interested as i love horror games/ movies plus one of the characters in the game is voiced by Hayden Panettiere and her likeness too.

"Until Dawn is designed to be replayed multiple times as players will not be able to understand the full story with only just one playthrough. Each playthrough will last about 9 hours in length and the game mechanics will utilize a new in-game system called the “Butterfly Effect” in which any choice of action by the player may cause major unforeseen consequences later on. Throughout the game players will make difficult decisions during ethical or moral dilemmas such as to sacrifice one character in order to save another as one example. The “Butterfly Effect” system blurs the line between right and wrong decisions and it is possible for players to keep all eight characters alive or to have them all killed, allowing for many different paths and scenarios players can take and seemingly endless multiple endings. Until Dawn will have a strict auto-save system to prevent players from reloading a previous save file to an earlier point in the game if they regret an in-game decision that they have made"

Never heard of it before today. Sounds interesting. It's like a more serious version of the game "Dyscourse". In Dyscourse you're basically trapped on an island with a bunch of other characters and you have to try make it off alive but each decision you make has mass repercussions. It's designed to be played many times over getting a different game each time.

Yeah i'm not sure when Until Dawn comes out, rumour has it june/july this year. I just invested in a PS4 just for this game...well it was part of my reason to get one. I had State Of Decay on my 360, not a bad game at all for a small company.

Pretty common problem but many different causes. Try turning it off (hold the power button for about 7 seconds) then unplug everything. Check the connections to make sure they don't look bent or warped at all. Reconnect it all and try again. If this doesn't work you can try replacing the HDMI cable and try connecting the cable to a different port on the TV. If this doesn't work then the power supply may be faulty and you'll have to contact Sony.

Yeah i'm looking forward to it. I really liked the Witcher 2 and this one looks like it's gonna be even better.

Also did you see the video of Conan O'Brian playing it, it was actually funny.
