A name like Chris Walker seems pretty mundane. Nothing scary about a dude called Chris, right? If you really think that, there's a good chance you've never played Outlast. Here's a tip: don't. Unless you're prepared to have one of the most pant-wettening experiences of your life, anyway. This first-person title sees you play as a nosy journalist who takes his video camera and decides to document an abandoned mental asylum which, apparently, has had a bunch of weird, scary stuff happening in it. The psychiatric ward Outlast takes place in isn't short of horrific sights, but the absolute worst of all the various terrors in Outlast has to be Chris L Walker, one of the inmates who despite being confined to a hospital is absolutely bloody huge, is absolutely bloody terrifying, and absolutely invincible. Again, not that you have any weapons bar your camera, but most enemies you can deal with okay - all you can do with Chris is run, and hide, and pray he didn't see where you ran and hide.
