Finally, a TRUE survival horror game
The creator's of this game did a fantastic job with everything within it. While it does have it's minor issues (game glitches, but i've only seen two and they really weren't anything so bad as to ruin my gaming experience). Let's take into consideration the graphics first, which right from the opening sequence look beautifully crafted and equally as good as those games running under the Unreal Engine (the fire I honestly thought was real fire).
The level of awesomness within this game is just...well...awesome. By awesomness I mean how much the game puts you on the edge. Right smack in the beginning of the game you are thrown into a level of chaos where you have no idea what the hell is going on, **** is being tossed at you and blowing up all around you, you just want to continue playing until you figure out what exactly is going on in the freakin' game.
Now, let's get to the controls that everyone seems to be **** about. What's wrong with the controls you ask? Well, if your a gamer who could actually play the original Resident Evils and Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare, absolutely nothing and that's only the movement that's like those games, aside from that, the first person plays just like your typical first person and your standard melee fighting plays unlike anything I've actually played before. The ability to use the right analog to control your movement with your hands allows for more freedom to do things and there's no other game I have seen that does that yet.
Overall, Alone in the Dark is a phenominal game and I really don't understand half you people who gave it such a poor rating. Sure there are some minor issues with the movement controls and some glitches, but also take into consideration that this is the first Alone in the Dark game that's been out for quite some time and there hasn't actually been a REAL survivor horror game in awhile either. I truely believe they did a fantastic job transfering this into the next generation consoles and it's totally worth the play. The people that rated it so ****ty probably just rated it that poor because it's actually a relatively difficult game to play instead of something you can prance right through like Halo.
