Gameplayer has gone live with their take on the poorly received Alone in the Dark game form Eden Games. They are adamant that within the title there is a stack of great ideas, but ultimately their implementation results in frustating gaming.
"Another example of this ambition gone mad is a car chase that occurs when you first hit the streets of New York. As the ground behind you rapidly opens up like some kind of sentient earthquake, you're tasked with steering a speeding car to safety. You need to dodge traffic, take corners flawlessly, avoid collapsing architecture, line up perfect jumps, nick through gaps without hitting scenery and so on - and yet, one mistake is punished with instant Game Over and you're required to restart the entire sequence from the top. Argh."
