Catshade: It hasn't changed since...two or three weeks ago? (the week with Another World + Sanitarium promo) That, or your Strategy First/Rebellion promos were total failures, since none of the games is in the top 10 bestsellers list for their respective weekends. On the other hand, the Another World + Sanitarium promo was a humongous success since both consistently occupy the first and second bestseller spot for two/three weeks.

JDV72: I've noticed that the list hasn't included anything from the last 2 weekend promos (which is odd) and looks stuck at the Another World/Sanitarium week.

That's really odd, but thanks for pointing that out - we will look into this. :)

Kunovski: and I'm kind of confused, AitD camera is pointed at some areas the player goes through, Tomb Raider had a camera stuck behind Lara's back... how is this similar?

TR also has the 'tank' control (left/right = rotate, forward = the character moves the direction he's currently looking at).

the guy who's in charge of updating the week's bestsellers' field was probably on vacation for the last 2 weeks, eh? :P

I hope this is a sign we will get the original trilogy as well. I love the first game.
What about Shadow of the Comet and Prisoner of Ice? They now belong to Atari as well, I guess?

Leonsito: I hope we get the original trilogy, this is the worst classic AitD :(

+1
This one really pissed me off.
Doublebarrel revolver, triplebarrel shotgun, four holes in the ass.

Nice adition... But I hope you will add the 3 first Alone in the Dark games!

Not really that odd. If I'm not mistaken there were many who tried to improve both revolvers and shotguns by adding cylinders or barrels. I think it was a nice touch to help set the mood with obscure things...

Ditto. This is a nice release, but I was hoping to play the first one again. Getting the trilogy release would be great.

I'm just happy you guys aren't releasing the reboot! I feel so ashamed that I waited around at midnight for the game! At least I got a nice-looking shirt out of it.

I liked this game. However it frustrated the hell out of me on a couple of occasions. One word of advice if your playing as the female character don't run out of bullets before you shoot a mirror, else you won't be able to complete the story.
I would recommend it to fans of the genre, though.
Hopefully we'll get the first 3 games to this series as I could never find them when I looked.

well, you could say the same thing about the first Wolfenstein for example :) (I'm sorry if I don't remember right and it had strafing) but bansama is probably looking for some console-like control system, where you push "up" and the character goes up the screen no matter what ;) still, I had no problem with "tank" control, it suits these games perfectly...

Really hoping this means the original trilogy is gonna get released. Alone in the Dark 4 was alright, but the original was fantastic.
Hold up your hand if you can fondly remember sitting on the trap door and laughing as the zombie tries to creep in and fails horribly. :D

Great, I love this game :D
Guys guys, while it's true that it's not as good as the first three, this game is still awesome...
But my favorite is still the first one...

Can I add my name to the list of people who would snap up the earlier games!
And I 2nd the request for Shadow of the Comet!
