Must of missed this, reading the paper today and SOMA is being reviewed for Xbox one at 9/10. The newspaper loved it (The Star I think), Sainsbury's coffee-shop read while drinking edition. Anyway it's £23.00 on XBL and PS4, 'tis £5.69 on Good Old Games for the PC 75% off. From what I understand it was released a couple of years ago for PS4 and PC but Xbox just got a recent release (December this year).

Looks like a Bioshock/System shock 2 clone. For £6 or just under it seems like a good deal to me.

Played it a little while ago. It's cool and different from your average shooter (for starters: no shooting!) and you need to pay attention to understand what's going on, and particularly the ending... but not a lot of replay value IMO. Get it on GOG or wait for the price to fall on XBox

Yes it's very hide and hide again, story is good. I'm a couple of hours and am enjoying it. HLTB says 11 hours, so for just under £6 it's great value.
