Gloomy Alone in the Dark (Microsoft Xbox 360, Sony PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, PC) may be, but Atari sure enjoys shedding light on the upcoming survival horror title developed by Eden Games. Producer Todd Slepian is at it again to tell us about Edward Carnby's impending adventure, detailing how the game will be presented in its episodic structure. Hit that jump!

You gotta love trailers, and here's another one to further pique our interest on Alone in the Dark 5 (Microsoft Xbox 360, Sony PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, PC). It's the usual dose of Edward Carnby in the dark version of New York with a creepy creature popping out. See it for yourself at the full article.

Eden Games haven't said much about its upcoming Alone in the Dark: Near Death Investigation (Sony PlayStation 3, Microsoft Xbox 360, PC), but German magazine PC Games was able to visit the developer's studio and learn more. Check out what they found out at the full article.

Eden Studios has generously presented Alone in the Dark's demo with a few more words concerning the gameplay. Even though this survival-horror game (no, Eden Studios says it's called action-driven suspense) is expected to ship for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 sometime in 2007, there's a lot of preview details that makes us anticipate its release. Some of these are about weapons, cars, visual effects, mysterious action locations, and the retailing of the game itself.

One key feature of the survival horror game is the weapon system. Players can choose their guns and items from Edward Carnby's left and right pockets. They can easily be accessed and tucked away again. Then, player immersion can go a long way down to the use of cars. Moving the analog stick allows players to position themselves from the driver's seat to the backseat or act as triggermen.

Camera angles and visual effects allow players to get a real taste of action. These are evident on the motion blur, dense lighting, and depth of field. But the real suspense lies in the fact that all the action happens in New York's Central Park. Unbeknownst to many, this might just answer some of the mysteries lurking in the conspiracy theories that add suspense to the game.

No word on pricing yet, but there's a possibility that you can buy Alone in the Dark per episode as you would a regular TV series. Eden Studios says it's much like buying a whole or part of a TV season on the Internet or in stores. More details about this game will soon come out, and expect us here at QJ to give you the latest updates.
