Pre-order Alone in the Dark PC News

PC News by Ellie Gibson

16 June, 2008

You can now pre-order the PC version of Alone in the Dark at the Atari Store for EUR 49.99.

That gets you free bonus content including two music tracks from the game's soundtrack, and a two-part Making Of documentary feature.

Plus you'll be able to pre-load the game 24 hours before it hits the shops. Activation keys will be handed out shortly after midnight on release day so you can get started sharpist.

Alone in the Dark is out on June 20th and will also be available for PS2, Wii and Xbox 360. There are plenty of videos, previews, interviews and screenshots to enjoy over on the gamepage.

Exactly... need to know whether to cancel my pre-order or not before GAME take my money early like they did with Haze, the gits! I'm more than a bit dubious about the quality of this game after all the negative comments I've been reading and the videos make the game look a tad rough and unfinished... :?

Playr on Bravo reviewed this at the weekend, said it was brilliant and annoying in equal measures. Still gave it an eight out of ten though.....

brillient and annoying in equal measures? that doesnt bode well... Anybody else see the wii version video? The wii-mote and nun-chuck implementation seems quite cood. Graphics wern't too bad either concidering. If the 360 version (and by proxy the PC) sucks, the wii version might swing it for me.

There are "reviews" up on The Times and The Guardian websites, but they're completely useless. It looks to me like they've read the back of the box and written a review based on that. It's not boding well though:

"The problem is that a twitchy camera and wretched controls make it tempting to skip all too often. Tasks such as battling demonically possessed New Yorkers and hot-wiring cars are nightmarish for all the wrong reasons."

EG's review should appear any time now, unless an embargo is underway, right?

I wish EG would actually let us know when to expect the review. Theirs is the only one I'd trust really. If it doesn't appear by tomorrow night I think I'm going to cancel my pre-order for the Special Edition then if the game does turn out to be good then I can reorder the standard one. There's supposed to be a playable demo due any time now - Phil Harrison said a month or so back that it'd be out a week before the game came out...

I'm also waiting for a review of this, although I haven't pre-ordered yet, so can (just about) hold out until I do get the info to make an informed choice.

Can I make an advance plea for an EG opinion on which version will be the one to get (if it's any good) as I've seen very little about the quality or otherwise of the Wii and PC versions - it all seems to focus on the 360...

50 euros! What a rip off. When there's no guarantee it will actually be any good, I think i'll stick to 24.99 pre-orders that everywhere else is offering!

It's episodic right? So is this just for the first episode?

No thanks, it's got SecuROM, same as Mass Effect, Spore and Bioshock. No game is worth *that* hassle.
