Talk About Alone In The Dark

I forked out a few dollars the other day and rented Alone In The Dark on 360. I hadn't read anything about it before I did and like always, that was a bad idea. The game started out pretty decent but once I realized how broken the controls were everything else went down hill from there.

For a "next gen" game this one really falls short. I only managed to get in a few hours because I couldn't get past the second or third level (can't remember) where you drive the car through New York. I have never see so many flaws in one level. If only I could have gotten past that I might have seen the other flaws in the game, but I dunno. I should at least be able to get past the third level.

There's really nothing more I can say about this game because that's all I could get to. It makes me mad when they release god awful games like that. Companies take so much time to make them but they can't fix the bugs. What I can tell you is don't buy, rent or even borrow this game. It's what crap wants to be when it gets older.
