That new trailer looked like Far Cry Wii level graphics...

Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

You know, just because it looks like **** doesn't mean it's any good.

Seriously, don't you have better uses for your money than to buy a $50 game from a company that tries to sue negative reviews to censor them?

Wow, the next-generation isn't working so well for Phil Harrison.

But I think he knew things were tumbling down anyway.

the game doesn't have to look amazing, but the trailer on the nintendo channel looks especially terrible. If the game looks better than that, either put up a good looking trailer or don't bother with a trailer at all.

This speaks to a larger issue, all the games they show should have trailers, but the trailers should be marketing tools, not 1:07 of random images and moving pictures.

Oh KDR. Don't worry, I don't buy EVERY third party game in existence you know! Besides, if I don't buy Alone in the Dark, just think of how many Majesco games I can buy instead! ^_^

These new screenshots are the best ones I've seen of the Wii version so far:

Is it just me or is that jacket inventory screen really disorienting?  I d'know about y'all, but my head's centered on my torso, not floating somewhere off to the left of my shoulder.

Basically he fits his chin into his left lung.  Only Atari can bring this level of realism to games.

Kairon if you ever were in NJ I could show you where the Majesco office is. I actually met a really nice game tester that works there.

Thanks, but I don't think I'm going to be visiting my relatives in NY anytime soon.

I do know that they have a development studio in Santa Monica, CA...

Boy, reviews on the Wii version of this game are sure slow coming. I won't make a move until Bozon gives me his score. ;)

NO reviews from the mainstream media yet. I've been forced to turn to Youtube reviews. http://youtube.com/watch?v=gUaSXxXX2uc

That and he always seems completely drunk in all of his pictures/interviews that I've seen.  Figured he may as well let it all out finally.

I planed on getting this game till Atari started trying to sue everyone over reviews and they didn't send out review copies. Thank you Shy Guy for the review it is the final nail on this games coffin.

What a turd so far.

- When you die twelve times before the intro title, it's not a good sign.
- The enviroments are actually well rendered. The character models are ugly as crap though
- Jeez, they change the rules so often. Sometimes you can walk off an edge, sometimes you can't. Sometimes you can put out a fire, sometimes you can't. Sometimes you can grab a ledge, sometimes you can't.


- HOLY CRAP THIS GAME IS STUPID
- Who designed the controls for this? I personally hope that Atari goes out of business and this person loses their job.

- Suprise, suprise, the driving sucks too.
- I don't know how much more of this I can take. I think this is the worst game I have played on the Wii. Worse than Cooking Mama.

third parties really dunt understand wii development.  makes sense if they didn't understand gamecub development the first time around.

well, my Brothers in Arms will sell as credit towards Wii Music.  How about your Alone in the Dark?
