Got this on the Xbox, it's pretty damn good.
Nice references to the film when you visit the US base at the start (McReady's tape, the rec room, Blair's homemade UFO etc) and once at the Norwegian Base, it kicks off.
Even has the Norwegian in the chair that slit his wrists and has frozen blood to the floor.
In short:
Atmospheric, creepy, involving and one of my companions wet himself.
So I shot him in case he was The Thing.
But he wasn't.
Doh

Nic to here it's not just a bog standard movie licence rip off. I think I'll check out the PC version sometime soon, as I loved the film.

Shoot random members of your team. It'll make you happy, and you might occasionally get The Thing.

Played this yesterday. It is suprisingly good. Sort of Resident Evil style, but without the fixed cameras.
I shot a barrel when one of my team was too close. He hit the deck.
And the walls, and the corridor. It was like a fleshy firework going off.

Sounds good. (writes note to self: check out The Thing - no! Not THAT thing...)
