Can anyone give me a bit of their personal feedback on Alien Isolation if it's worth buying?

i saw a lets play on youtube by a guy named nicked goes by username tetra ninja, it was good enough to scare him into not finishing it, it was pretty entertaining to watch...
i know this is not first hand experience, but it's all i've got.
i keep telling my cousin to buy it and he really wants to too.

check out some "let's plays" on youtube.... unless you don't want to spoil it.

It was my favorite survival horror game last year! It was truly a stressful and gratifying experience. I highly recommend it.

If you liked the first movie, I think you would like it as well.  The creators of this game got all the little details just right.

It is a slow and long burn.  not much combat and lots of trial and error.  Very good game.

I love it. It's very scary when the alien is hunting you. I recommend wearing a headset too. You can hear the loud thump of its footsteps when it's close. You can't do the same thing twice either or the alien will adapt and catch on. I learned the hard way by running to the same hiding spot and the alien came around the other side and met me head on. I felt an adrenaline rush like real fear as I tried to run away, but the alien is faster than you so this will not work unless you have a significant head start and can lose it around a corner and find an adequate place to hide. I was just murdered for the umpteenth time and my heart is still pumping. The music and atmosphere is also perfect. I highly recommend it.

The little details thing is huge - the more you like the movies, the more of those little things you'll see, and it really makes the game feel special!
