American McGee talks with us about his latest project, Alice: Otherlands
Alice: Asylum, the anticipated third game in the Alice series, has been passed on by EA according to American McGee.
I played Alice: Madness Returns for the first time last year and it blew away all my expectations. It's amazing, fun, weird, wonderous, and so much more. A very creative and unique game. It's devastating to hear we aren't getting another Alice game. If EA doesn't want to do another Alice game than sell the license to American McGee.
Shame. Both American Mcgee's Alice and Madness Returns were tremendous games with incredible art direction.
Does American McGee not have enough clout in the industry yet to start his own publishing house? Dude has been around since the early 90s, he worked on Doom II and Quake, AM Alice was a revelation when it came out, and he's had a few other modest hits as well. Does he really need EA?
American McGee shared a little intel about his plans for the next Alice game. However, that’s up to Electronic Arts, the publisher of his game, if they will push through with a new installment in the franchise.
After how bad EA screwed up the last one, I'd rather not see another unless the rights are purchased by a publisher with a soul
Sirus Gaming reports: A lot of fans were struck when American McGee cited that he will not be able to develop any sequels, remake, and/or spin-offs until Electronic Arts, the game's publisher, will give him the go-signal to do it.
However, that might change if American McGee's Kickstarter project, a table-top card game called Out of the Woods, will be a huge success.
Out of The Woods looks awesome. And quite cheap. I hope it helps McGee regain EA's interest. Alice: MR was a great adventure.
I'd rather have Alice: Otherlands as a video game, the potential for which seems nearly limitless. As a one dimensional experience (film), I just can't get behind it.
cant wait for this one come out.
