General thoughts? I hadn't been paying attention to this one, but recently it's caught my eye, though I'm trying to stay as ignorant of the details as I can.

I'm intrigued. I like the film noir style, and as soon as it was said to be inspired by Twin Peaks, I really took notice.

I haven't been following it as much as I should have, mostly because they've been somewhat tight lipped about it.

Here are some recent videos (probably spoilers, not sure on Work Safeness):

I've been keeping track of this since E3. Should be highly entertaining.

Video's of the first 20 minutes of the game are online if you go looking. I've been good & avoided looking at them.

I have checked out some screen shots though. I believe they confirmed it'll be running in 720p.

This is one of the games that makes me want a 360.

I received my collector's edition yesterday, but was unable to play due to extreme exhaustion and a fever. I can't wait to jump in, though.

I've tried to avoid information as much as possible, but if anyone can answer this question, I'd appreciate it.

Spoiler:
The "darkness" or whatever plaguing town...please tell me it's supernatural, rather than sci-fi (like aliens or something).

Mid-way through episode two. This game is GREAT! The mood is just astounding.

Would there be much replay value in this game? Or is it more of a rental type game?

You could probably fit two plays in during a rental period. Playing again on the hardest difficulty will get you a little more story fleshed out.

It also depends on if you care about DLC. They're giving away the first downloadable episode to purchasers of a new retail version.

The Signal released yesterday, for the interested.

Trippy.

Is this coming out for PC or PS3? At all? I can't afford another system :(
