The latest Top 10 PC charts have been revealed and as we can see, World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria and Borderlands 2 are dominating Steam’s digital and UK’s retail PC charts. Guild Wars 2 seems to be selling well, as it managed to keep its second place in UK, and is followed by the freshly released Fifa 13 and Borderlands 2. What is also really great with this week’s UK charts is that only three The Sims 3 titles can be found in it. A sign of a wind of change? We can only hope so. Skyrim is placed at the seventh place and is followed by F1 2012, Diablo III and The Sims 3: Pets.

Planned for a release next year on PC, Asylum will take players through a decayed and torn setting in which danger lurks in every corner and every room has its own disturbing history to tell. It is currently in development by Senscape, a company over in Argentina that was founded by Agustín Cordes, the talented designer of the cult favorite and award winning Scratches.

In it, players are given a taste of the games unsettling ambiance, which they can expect from the finished product; and after playing that demo myself, I have come up with five reasons which I believe, is why classic horror fans should look forward to the game.
