Ok, Alone In The Dark, when I bought this game I felt confident that it would be a good game, I heard stories that it was good and gameplay movies online looked good, so I went along and bought it. At first it was pretty confusing and the controls weren't all that great, but I looked past that and kept playing. Then the zombies come out and oh my god, I have never seen such stupid zombies in my life, they just stand there, they make no sound and they are not even scary!! But the most negative thing in this game is the glitches, I have never seen so many glitches in one game in my life!!! There is at least one glitch a level, and they aren't minor glitches that just look funny or missing walls or something, they are game altering glitches, like on one I came across is the 2nd level I think (cant remember) you have to break down this door, and I saved right before that, and the next room disappears, and you just fall through the floor to another part of the game. So I got mad and thought it was just that one time, but restarted it god knows how many times and it just kept happening, and I had to delete my save data and start the game over again. That's not the only time, I had to do this numerous times throughout different parts of the game, and that is very frustrating. But if you can get past that, the rest of the game is pretty good! I tried to look past all of the glitches and cheesy stuff because this game had potential, a good storyline, good screen display, and good gameplay as well. I really wanted to like this game, but the numerous glitches made it very hard.
Bottom line: If you can look past the many downfalls of this game, many of the other aspects make this a solid action adventure game.
