MMGN.COM writes: Tano & Heller bring us six truly horrible gaming reboots. These reboots are so bad, that they destroy all credibility of their original namesakes.
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "In one sense, it feels strange to even think Pieces Interactive had big shoes to fill with this series' legacy. Given what's come before, did it really? And yet, even when considering the last two flops over a two-decade span, there's still something about Alone in the Dark emblazoned on a title screen that carries a sense of revered history. In that respect, perhaps this reboot's best accomplishment is in honoring that spirit through its inventive world. It's also fair to emphasize knocks against its survival-horror design, some puzzle-solving, and so on; it certainly won't be considered a trendsetter like the 1992 classic. Still, the amount of goodwill wedded to its brighter qualities makes for something that dawdles the line between unfortunately-flawed and impressively-enticing."
The new Alone in the Dark remake doesn't do anything especially noteworthy, but that doesn't mean it's bad. It's just... cromulent.
The original Alone in the Dark - hailing all the way back from 1992 - is re-imagined with Unreal Engine 4. The story and puzzle elements are dramatically overhauled, where PS5, Series X and S strive for 60fps gameplay in a decent performance mode. However there are technical rough points to this release which detract from what could be a much better game.
series S performance mode, 800x450p - 1600-900p
so NEVER hits 1080, and goes as low as a ps2.
this consoles dead to me
If you are going to reboot a game keep it original don't sway from its roots
-TMNT:Reshelled. I dislike that boss&stages was mismatch/different from the original. Color scheme really wasn't all that.
-Shadowrun. A few companies in today is trying to pull a shadowrun reboot, Instead of sticking to the original gamestyle/gameplay mechanics they want to turn their game into a shooter.
-Bomberman:ActZero, I miss the old bomberman
-Sonic(2006) they team that created should of went back and look at SA1 or SA2. Graphically it was a improvement but graphics aren't everything when it comes to some games.
Never played Alone in the dark or that version of space invaders.
i enjoyed shadowrun.....
