Atari has released a list of the changes to be made in the PS3 version of Alone in the Dark, not due out until November this year.
With the 360 version having scored a disappointing average score of 58, Atari will probably be hoping these PS3 tweaks can improve on that.
Here's the full official list:
Full 360 camera control: enhanced camera controls allows complete freedom of the camera and better handling of first person view camera movement for even more immersive gameplay;
Fine-tuned controls: quicker and smoother reactivity of the hero's movements in third person view make for more rapid movements in nail-biting situations;
Inventory system more accessible: more logical jacket inventory system with the ability to combine objects using only the D-pad, and more fluid hero movement makes item selection a breeze.
More tips: players will get all the help they need to get through every situation and get the most out of the game;
Spectral Vision tuning: a tutorial explains the need to burn roots in order to gain spectral vision and difficulty tuning means less spectral vision is required to reach the end of the game;
Improved car dynamics and handling: car handling has been tuned to make driving a car a walk in the park in every situation, including increased suspension and reduced drift;
59th Street level tuning: one of the game's most exciting sequences just got better. 59th Street has been tweaked for a more satisfying race against the fissure with difficulty tuning, an added checkpoint at Columbus Circle and clear voice directions given by Sarah;
Brand new thrilling action sequence: an exclusive new sequence has been added in Episode 6 for even more pace and variety of gameplay in the episode.
surely they knew the game was gonna be crap before they released it why not spend the extra 2 months developing it to the standard after the update and get hopefully better reviews. hardly any magazines are gonna re review it if any and anyone who wanted it beofre would probably have it by now!
Keep polishing that turd, Atari, maybe one day you'll make it into a half decent game...
Atari are rolling these turds out like they've been on a prune diet. They don't usually bother with polish or patching bugs, just roll out the next one.
I think you guys are being a little harsh. The game wasn't crap at all. Sure, it had a number of issues, but being crap wasn't on the list.
It'd be nice for these to be patched into the 360 one though.
Aye, it'd be a lot fairer. If it makes a better game, that is. From what I heard about the 360 version, they'll need to pull their finger out with this.

No it's a decent game I'm on my first play through now but the controls suck balls, which is a big shame as otherwise this could of been so much better in that respect in my opinion.

That's basically it. The game itself is a really cool idea - it's cinematic, atmospheric, and engaging. Sadly, the interface to interact with that world is terrible. Also, there are parts of the game towards the end that are 'questionable' too...

Not that far from the end now at light from the sky part.

are you serious? it felt like an early code of a game comparing to other FINISHED games, i'm not paying for good ideas but for good games
Each to their own but it's not that bad a game just the controls. They are patching very little otherwise for the PS3 version hence why I say they may need to do more on the control side but we'll see.
Lots of games have been released needing serious patching straight away PC and consoles alike.

i think that patch for 360 version might not be enough, altough i'm still keeping my copy

I'm hoping there will be more control improvements myself, god knows why we have to wait so long for patch though.
I'm sure an improved control system will make things slightly bearable. But the problem of poorly developed trial and error gameplay of some sections will still persist and that will still be a glaring fault.
I do wonder whether they would be releasing it on the pc and xbox 360 as a new seperate product : ALITD: remastered edition or something.
Oh stop whinging, at the end of the day, all these 360 buying morons have play tested it for us with their hard earned money so us real gamers with ps3's can enjoy a better product. Give them all the games first I say, at least its only the inbreds who will loose out..

Don't you mean the 360 owners will have already finished it so you PS3 owning morons can read the guide on how to complete the game, as you wont be able to complete it otherwise. Oh and its whinging not winging see as I said morons.

Fanboys do bring a smile to my face, especially when they actually care about a game as s**te as this. Then again, people did buy Heavenly Sword and Lair... ps. the 360 game is being patched with these updates when the PS3 version is released, meaning PS3 owners will be paying more for the exact same game when 360 owners could probably find this in the bargain bin for £20.

hey thanks for the spelling lesson, i knew you lot would come in useful for something, as for using a guide, how the hell would a 360 owner type a guide up let alone finish a game bareing in mind most of you have hooks for hands and noodles for brains, I can only assume your care worker is typing these replies for you, wish her the best from me, she's got a hell of a tough job

Ooooh a real Sony Fanbot, I could have real fun here but time isnt on my side now. I would suggest you run your post through a spell checker before trying very badly to insult someone.

It wasn't your grammar he was correcting, it was your spelling, thus highlighting the irony in your supposed intellectual superiority to 360 owners.

I dont hold any superiority over the owners of a different video game system to the one I've chosen to own, it's just some saturday hangovers are better spent reading you geeks go off and get on your high horses about supposed console wars...and i get paid to sit here doing just that, so please mr wolf, do go on

Erm the comeback is highlighted in bold as from your first post I assumed you had a sense of humour (well we all know what assumption is the mother of don't we). The rest of what I wrote was tongue in cheek but you then flipped a lid tried to correct your spelling and then launched into fanbot rant mode after you were caught trying to do it sneakily. I have no problems with people mispelling stuff, I and I'm pretty sure others here have to look up spelling. You were the one calling all xbox owners inbred 360 buying morons. I only take offense to peoples spelling if they try and insult someone with gibberish.
If you can't stand people answering the shit you write then maybe it's best to leave the keyboard alone.
Also in your rant you said "I knew you lot would come in handy" pray do tell me what is my lot?

You get paid to frequent forums and mis-spell words and then don't know if I'm taking the micky out of your spelling or "grammer"(as you put it). You must be self employed as thats the only way you would get paid for anything.
Wow, are you still ranting on? I thought my wife could go on but you take the biscuit. Lesson learnt, "don't banter lonewolf2002, he never shuts the f**k up" lol

p.s lonewolf give it a rest mate
I was only answering the idiot after he asked me "do go on MR. Wolf" so maybe you should of asked him to give it a rest eh. Or is there some other reason you have asked me to stop and not him
Um, Suiv...I mean Dr Phibes, how can you call 360 owners morons when they spent 'their hard earned money' on a console which, at the moment, is better value that the PS3?
