According to American McGee, EA Declines to Greenlight “Alice: Asylum”

Alice: Asylum, the anticipated third game in the Alice series, has been passed on by EA according to American McGee.

Wow EA you guys should do it frfr

robtion776d ago

For anyone interested in seeing what the third Alice game (Asylum) could have looked like here is a link to the design bible that outlines the art, game-play, and story for the game in great detail. Such a shame.

Excuse me for being blunt but fk you ea.

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.

robtion776d ago

He tried that approach. They won't sell the license. They say Alice is an important part of their game catalogue. They refuse to actually make another game in the series but won't let anyone else do it. Ridiculous.

IamTylerDurden1776d ago

Shame. Both American Mcgee's Alice and Madness Returns were tremendous games with incredible art direction.

sadraiden776d ago

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?

ZwVw776d ago (Edited 776d ago )

Obviously not. His studio Spicey Horse was shut down and nowadays, he's been spending most of his time being an unapologetic CCP shill. How ironic for a guy whose first name is American.

shinoff2183776d ago (Edited 776d ago )

Ea owns it

Also zw sure thing 👍 smh

IamTylerDurden1776d ago

He does not. That's all old news. Man was creative and deserves to run a studio. Alice was sublime.

Need at least a few years for a bigger game like that and that’s probably not enough.

They wanted something cheap.

RaidenBlack14h ago

Now you can get, what Obsidian went thru,
Had to create New Vegas within 1.5 years.
They had to scrap some ideas + there was limitations of console hardware as well (the strip area in the game, etc).
Hence, I say, we better get a New Vegas Redone than just a straight remaster, as was leaked.

Todd ego too big for that, IMHO.

Azurite1d 5h ago

Remasters can take longer than that.

Dandizzle1d 3h ago

not true, look up star wars first assault.

ZeekQuattro23h ago

Sounds about right. They were rushed while making the second game. Not hard to imagine that trend continued with it's ill fated follow-up.

1nsomniac21h ago(Edited 21h ago)

I actually really liked the first Battlefront. Its charm was that it was so simple and basic. It felt like a really well made modernised old school shooter. Ignoring all the COD style BS that took over all other games.

I absolutely loved Battlefront 2 as well but I enjoyed Battlefront 1 for its simplicity.

She might do better in a factory environment.

Hehe. I remember when people said the same thing about Sony entering the gaming race back in the 90s. And here we are. 😆
