- Rating:8.5
Don't believe the reviews that say it's unplayable!
The reviews that say that this game is unplayable are just completely wrong. The controls are not bad at all! They are very reminiscent of the first couple of Resident Evil's in fact. Although the print screen button bei... Read Full Review

Alone in the Dark innovates and makes a good start in its first appearance on the current generation.
I'm a big fan of this genre of games since the first Alone in the Dark (PC). The ones I most enjoyed playing so far were "Alone in The Dark: The New Nightmare" and the first "Silent Hill" game, both on PS1. I was very an... Read Full Review

Very impressive and cinematic epic game, with optimazation and no bugs, but one problem: Bad control!!!
Unlike the previous its a hard survial game that you got to converse items a bit, the control is terrible but if you switch to first person its just fine. Alone in the dark is amazingly well optimized and it had prett... Read Full Review

Awesome set pieces, and a decent all-round gaming experience makes this a great budget game.
This was the first game I have ever played in the 'Alone in the Dark' series, and from the moment I played the demo, I knew I would have to get it. The very odd plot is pretty hard to follow, but in a nutshell you play ... Read Full Review

I don't understand why people give this a poor review?!
This game is much better than the rating suggests. I play this game using an Xbox 360 controller and it is much easier to control the character. However, if you have problems with keyboard and mouse I suggest using an ... Read Full Review
