    The Official Alone in the Dark Thread

    I searched the forums and didn't find a thread for this title.

    New video on Gametrailers for Alone in the Dark. Another cool title Wii owners can look forward to. Looks like developers are finally getting the hint! Enjoy.

    It looks good in some ways, but it seems like they're waaaaaay overusing motion controls. Steering by tilting the wiimote and nunchuck? I don't know, I'm very skeptical. Motion contols should be used when they improve the control of the game. Swinging the pipe and the chair seemed like good examples of that - that looks fun. But it looks like they're forcing every little thing in the game to be based on motion controls, and that's a recipe for frustration.

    Anyways, it definitely has some promise. Hopefully my impressions based on the video aren't correct.

    I agree. I'm psyched to play this but hope that all the motion doesn't deter from the fun.
    After look at some more about the game I am thrilled with what I have seen graphic wise.
