A Dark Past: An Alone in the Dark Retrospective

Before the "survival horror" of Resident Evil and the foggy streets of Silent Hill, there was the original Alone in the Dark - the granddaddy of the game that hits Xbox 360, Wii, and PC today. It set the course for horror games to come and spawned three sequels that have led to Atari's first stab at a next-gen blockbuster.

Summon up your courage and join us for a terrifying look back at the series' evolution from perilously pointy polygons to an ominous Old West and beyond.
