Editor freaks out over scary Alien virtual reality game

Oculus Rift is widely-considered the future of video games because the virtual reality headset is able to fully immerse you into game environments like never before. That may sound like hype, but then we saw this video.

Andrew Zucosky, editor at Shacknews, had a chance to check out the very atmospheric demo for Alien Isolation while wearing the VR headset. In the demo, you are alone in a desolate space station, listening to the rumblings and clan kings of an alien who is out to get you.

If you ever wanted to see a professional video game writer freak out, this video is for you. It also makes us really want an Oculus VR in the office ASAP!
