I'm not 100% sure because the PS3 version sounded really good as well. It's definitely the most elaborate sounding game I've ever heard, the level of detail on my Beyer T1s is absolutely insane. There's also no issues with volume levels which is a god send coming from garbage like Wolfenstein and Infamous.
Nice, same headphones as me!
I would say that a good part of the emotional impact of the game gets lost if you don't have children.
Not just on the main narrative but in the gameplay. Every house is family home and its always moving to walk into the kids bedroom.
Playing it on grounded is freaking amazing.
I don't have children, but have a very big family and have grown up around children my whole life, looking after or being there for my cousins etc from when they were born. And I must say, parts of this game had a pretty profound effect on me, without much really even happening.
In particular a house in Bills area that had children's playrooms in it, notably this little jigsaw mat unfinished in the living room, and most of all the nursery school in the sewers at the end. Reading those letters and learning of what likely became of those poor children's fate. Honestly, was like a punch in my gut. For a while I was kind of left sapped and hit hard. I remember the first time I played the game I just paused for like half a minute, having to give myself a few seconds to come to terms with the scenario implied. First time a game has really had that sort of an affect on me.
