@GezForce As a matter of fact, it never was a new engine. They did explain that they talked about it being new because they had made so many modifications to the basic engine that it could be considered "new".
In any case, if Activision wants to continue to milk the franchise they better be working on a totally new engine adapted to the new consoles.
The first Alone in the Dark at the very beginning... that room where you could barricade the trap door and window to stop monsters from entering the room...
In my case, most of my friends are non gamers so it really isn't a driving force for me when choosing which platform to get. However, before every game was online I would often gather with a bunch of gamers in a Cyber cafe playing mostly LAN as said in this video. The transition ot the internet has made LAN parties scarce, and with that my circle of gaming friends has grown narrow mainly due to the fact that I rarely dedicate to a single game (last one I think was CS 1.5).
I know I'm probably not the norm, but online just made me lose that interaction I previously had.
