The upcoming horror/adventure game, Alone in the Dark, has made its way onto to Bittorrent sites and FTP. There have also been reports of the game breaking its street date in the UK. Atari got wind of this when several gaming sites have reviewed the game without officially receiving advanced copies. Loot Ninja will be getting a copy soon, but not until Atari sends us one. Some reviews were also very mixed on the game and Atari is not happy with the bad publicity. When asked to take the reviews down, the sites refused stating that they had purchased the game in a store. This has only occured in Europe, but the fallout has landed all the way in the US.

Now I might have a second opinion on this game because of the reviews..
“Atari got wind of this when several gaming sites have reviewed the game without officially receiving advanced copies.”
Ruh-Oh.
Well,I’m hearing the game starts off with a Bang but ends with a Queef,so I think Atari should be more concerned with making the next one better rather than going after Reviewers…
I was in london airport and they had Alone in the Dark on the shelves. Someone could have bought it and brought them over.
