Alone in the Dark. WTF Happened?

I hate to interrupt your playing of the Wii version of Alone in the Dark.

Hah. See what I did there? None of you are playing this game. And if you are, I pity you. Do you know why? Because this game, which showed a lot of promise, is actually awful. Nobody is playing it, and across all of the internets, there is only one review for the Wii version, which calls it abysmal.

I was actually a little excited for this game. I hadn’t been tracking it much, but from what I had heard here and there it was going to be pretty good. I guess the 360 and PS3 versions aren’t bad, but as has been happening all too much with cross-port third-party titles, the Wii version was pretty much ignored.

Oh well. Just a warning to you guys, in case you were thinking of picking this up. I don’t want any of you wasting money on crappy games, even if the game is the last hurrah of a once-giant company that I had a lot of affection towards.

RIP Atari.
