We've always been big fans of fire. Not just in a Crazy World of Arthur Brown way, but in the sort of can of WD-40 and an ant's nest sort of way. Which is partly why we're so delighted to present you with this video showcasing the way in which fire is dealt with by Alone in the Dark's incredible physics. Impressive.

Saw this on Gamer TV ages ago. Still looks impressive though.

Ask yourself one question. Who is releasing this?

Smack bang into uncanny valley with this. Yeah, looks 1000x better than any prior attempts at doing fire but then you have a new set of counter-realisms that turn up :
- unless they're covered in lighter fluid, things don't really want to burn that much. OK, a foam couch, paper, etc, but *wood* from a cold start needs a few seconds of sustained contact with a *very* intense flame to then start burning, otherwise it just singes
- flames don't stay at a nice uniform 12 inches, large objects develop a single massive flame. That bit of wooden beam propped up against the wall would have (by the time its entire length was burning) produced a big fat flame meters in height !!!
- etc

Having said that, it *is* a great step, I'll be buying the game. Just commenting on the uncanny valley angle.

The physics look great, obviously a lot of work has been put into getting it look good, now the proof just rests in the playing. I'll be really interested to see the review scores for this.

Can't wait for this. I wonder if Condemned 2 will tide me over until then.

looks cool, the people that make the game should invest in some PR people. The voiceover sounds like a genuine mong.

@ tessatickle

Just assume everything that catches light 'too' easily has just had a fresh coat of varnish.Sense of realism preserved - huzzah!
