That much is a given, everything else would be a travesty. Hopefully it can match the success of other games in the genre as well.
Sony suuuuucks about physically releasing their OSTs. Most of them dont even get an iTunes release, only the big hitters like TLoU get the good treatment. At least they usually ship them digitally with CEs, which is better than no OST release at all.
Yuuuuuup.
love the slasher genre and dont mind its cliches. i will get it in oct but yea it would be nice to try a demo, i could have sworn it was confirmed a few months ago that it would get a demo. maybe a later release.

Well, Sony is working on that, despite some journalists outcry (referencing Metro here): "we dont understand why Sony is so invested into this genre we dont like"
Pretty pathetic, so it makes me happy Sony will likely push it even more now.
Why? Could easily be a:
No.
You need to pad that spoiler bar out. Way too easy to determine what word lays underneath.
Last month or the month before Supermassive on twitter asked for retweets to gauge demand for a demo. Maybe it just didn't work out.

I haven't looked into any reviews yet, I'm planning to just hasn't had a chance, just a couple questions.
How long is the game?
Does it happen to have a chapter select, like the Telltale Walking Dead games?

7-8 hours or about that. It does have a chapter select and its broken up like Alan Wake/Siren were each chapter is an episode (previously on...)
Roughly 7 hours, and yes, it does after you finish the game.

7-10 hours depending on your urge to explore everything. Chapter select is unlocked after you beat the game, the plot is told in episodes.

I think im doing terribly, I already have three killed.
I'm 1 hour from dawn and I have to say I love this game soooo much. It is the perfect realization of Cage- and Telltale-style games to a pretty remarkable degree. Been a long time since a game had me hooked for sessions this long. I'm super tense in just about every chapter, and I was torn apart when one of my favorite characters died because of something I knew I did wrong as I was doing it.
Even the horror tropes are classic but don't feel predictable. Can't believe it took so long for a game like this to be developed.

It's about 8-10 hours if you explore and take your time. Might take more depending on how you play.
Yes there's an episode select.

Emily's face in the pause menu is so much better than the one in game. She looks a lot prettier in it.

Metro tries way too hard to be dudebro it's ridiculous. Can't take anything they write of any of their reviews seriously. They also love to hate on Sony exclusive games, it's just how it is.
Good thing the vast majority if the gaming press have given the game a fair shake.

Beat the game and managed to save everyone. Love love love love love this game. Was definitely sweating in the final chapter though, holy shit. I really didn't wanna lose anyone after coming that far.

Took 6:30 to beat the game and I'm quite mad. Everyone lived up until literally the last part of the game and then died. Frustrated beyond belief.
The idle animations are so freakin' good.
Seriously impressive.

if u know of a place with alot of gifs like this from until dawn let me know, please.
Canadian retails are training me to either pre-order everything I'm interested in playing day-one during E3 discount week (I can always cancel), or just wait for the price to go down.

Anyone else think ashley could be the most attractive female in gaming? She's so endearing
Easy? Yeah, but kind of tedious / slow since you can't skip anything.

Is there an option for Spanish menu and subtitles, while keeping the original voices?

Don't know, I made that one myself from my own video.
I think it's all or nothing based on regional setting on the console. Unless your region didn't get full VA then it's subs and menu translations.

Chapter 5 with Mike
I'm so mad that I did that in turning the game off for the night lol
Chapter 5 with Mike
I used my machete down to the handle to get Mike's fingers out of the bear trap. I'm so mad at myself. That's obviously going to bite me in the ass later. FUCK. I didn't want him to have to amputate his fingers 
But once I tried once and the machete broke, I figured I may as well go to the end because the machete became useless after it broke the first time...
The butterfly effect for it is mocking me, too. "Mike freed himself from the bear trap. Mike no longer had a usable machete."

I don't watch tv or listen to radio, but was this marketed in any way? I know I never saw a single commercial of it in YouTube. It seems to have completely gone under the radar, which is a shame since its been getting good reviews.(for the record, I haven't played it yet.)
It just seems like something a lot of people would like if they had heard about it. It feels like Sony is trying to sweep it under the rug like it was Devil's Third or something.

This game, man, so freakin intense.
I'm now at Chapter 4,
I'm now at Chapter 4,
I think I just managed to kill off one of the annoying cast, Jessica. 1 down, 6 to go, emily will outlive everyone.
PS4 owners are more interested in a new game than an up res?
This game is so damn good. My wife and I watch a ton of horror movies together (for example we saw Maniac Cop 2 last night at Alamo Drafthouse Yonkers!) so we played this together and we had a blast. We just stopped at the start of chapter 4.
So far
deaths,
. I think we might have avoided one super early possible death but I'm not sure. Which chapter is the earliest you can have someone die? Is it
?
So far
0
other than the opening tutorial and I'm guessing they aren't actually dead
in the mine
FUCK.

Hmmm...
A broken machete is better than nothing. You should have cut his finger.
Don't know what horror awaits you now. >

Okay the game ramped up and I'm really loving it now. Think I'm on Chapter 6 now. Damn good.
Just wondering two things...
For my second question if so, this very well may the first game in years I will play twice.
Just wondering two things...
the very beginning was there a way to save one of the sisters?
The scene where you choose between Ashley or Josh is there any way to not kill either?

Its not that bad, SCEE is putting some effort in. SCEA is sleeping on the job, but that was to be expected.
I sure hope so.
The twins die no matter what. Not sure about the second, I didn't make a choice and Josh got halved still.

Earliest death possible is Jessica after the cabin.
No to both questions. Keep playing though.
