A release schedule came out of Atari this morning with a couple of key games confirmed for 2007 releases, predominantly Alone in the Dark, Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 and Turning Point: Fall of Liberty.
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
Fantastic news - I have been following the Alone in the Dark game for sometime and I am glad it is due this year.
Only problem is, with all these games coming out, I am going to be seriously lacking in the funds dept.
Woohoo DBZ:BT3 coming in November... now there's the real news. Stuff Alone in the Dark :D
now hurry up with silent hill.
The old PC version was the scariest thing in my time. I can't wait for this!!!
