The story takes a pretty big departure from the first game in that the only resemblance to the original is the main character Edward 'The Reptile' Carnby, who has abandoned his detective nickname and role of detective in general to turn into some kind of super-spy hero du jour. But if you're Hindu or believe in the powers of Karma in general, then you'll discover the true unfairness of it all when you play the unholy sequel that was spawned: Alone in the Dark 2: One-Eyed Jack's Revenge (or Jack is Back as it was called in Japan, which makes my mouth water because it reminds me of Jack in the Box for some reason).
#Alone in the dark ps1 review series
Said creator, Frederick Raynal, got into an argument over the issue that won in the favor of those who wanted to make the sequel, resulting in Raynal taking a long walk into developer obscurity leaving the series in the hands of a bunch of idiots who took them almost eight years to make an adequate horror-adventure game and even that one had huge, inexcusable game flaws. Originally, the first game was only going to be one game, but because it was so successful for its time, a sequel had been planned against the will of the original's creator. This example has in fact happened with the Alone in the Dark series. What you'd end up with would be a series of games livened up by a gang of developers who felt that in order to make a series memorable and scary they have to riddle each poor excuse of a sequel with bad game design choices, horrible game play decisions, interesting but miniscule plot twists, laughable enemies and above all an evident lack of atmosphere established by the original.
By codeblue2 | Review Date: ApI want you all to use your imagination here: What would you get if Team Silent - the development team branched from Konami responsible for the Silent Hill series - made the original classic Silent Hill game in 1999, but somewhere along the development of Silent Hill 2, the entire staff responsible for Silent Hill 4 came in and got into an argument that won in their favor and the original staff walked out?
