Oh, look, another Night Dive Studios joint! This time around, the team remastered a beloved cult classic from the PS2 era: The Thing. The third-person shooter might not have had the best combat around, but it made up for it with great atmosphere and a unique AI/squad system that forced you to be careful around your NPC friends lest they assume you were a dangerous alien in disguise. But at the same time, as you tried to survive the arctic base from the movie, you had to worry about your own squad mates acting strange. Were they just scared? Angry? Or were they actually the deadly alien, masquerading as your friend?
This system made every moment of the original tense, and The Thing Remastered cleans up the UI and textures, and makes this chilling shooter easily playable on modern consoles. Now a whole new generation of kids can be scared by The Thing.
