"Earlier this year, the highly anticipated Alone in the Dark launched to highly disappointing reviews. The Xbox 360 version was only mediocre and the PS2 version was absolute trash, which is why PlayStation 3 owners weren't so annoyed that their version was delayed. At that point, it was like...who cares?"
Phoenix Down is hosted by Drew Leachman and Matt Quinn. Each segment focuses on an older game the duo decides upon with another member of the ZTGD crew or special guest. They play through and discuss the mechanics and how well it holds up today. It is the ultimate in backlog elimination.
It is time to get the stones in this classic survival horror.

I highly recommend Infected on PSP, if you can find it. It's not on the PSN, so I can't play it on my Vita. :/ It would've been perfect for 2 analog sticks.
Galerians, Koudelka, Haunting Ground, Afraid Of Monsters and Rule Of Rose are great choices......
After a brief hiatus, the Players make Alone in the Dark (the 2008 one, mind you) their big return game.
What have we become?
Ironic how most of the times ps3 games get delayed, or is a worse version it always comes from a bad game and a bad developer? Kinda funny because bad developer plus issues with ps3 makes a delay = bad developers suck at developing.
This version of AITD is much better than its other versions. At least this game involves some innovative gameplay than rehashing same old ideas. Even though not all of them work to full perfection, some do work to playable degrees. So, what if its story is B-movie type, the game is fun, at least better than Silent Hill which didn't deliver as expected, not in respect to horror (which is done nicely in SH), but in respect to innovative gameplay. Even Siren beat Silent Hill this time, though I'm saddened cause I'm a extreme fan of SH series, I was disappointed this installment was mediocre.
