    A better title would be nice.


    Alice 2: Electric Boogaloo would do nicely.

    I'm admitting total ignorance here, but did any American McGee games actually get released, besides Alice? I know Alice had a pretty wide distribution, I liked it for its style a lot more than its gameplay, but it was an alright game. I was kind of eagerly awaiting Oz but never heard anything about it getting actually released? Am I CRAZY, and if not, what are the chances of this game actually getting released?

    @tha_pwn_ranger: Scrapland, Grimm, and Bad Day L.A. got released. Oz is the only one that hasn't.

    This is quite exciting. I know everyone gives American a hard time but the fact is, the man is passionate about what he does and he genuinely tries to offer us the type of games that we rarely see: original ones. They're not always good, but he's trying, and I can't wait to see how this project progresses.

    I admit I haven't played Alice yet. Is it any good? I'm stoked that more games like these are coming to consoles.


    Wait, wasn't Spicy Horse a company that was featured here in Kotaku before? Former employees of a big publisher/developer that relocated to China if I recall correctly...

    What do I want out of this game? I really don't care for the game, but if the development process can produce quality concept art, that'd be awesome!

    Also, here's the trailer for the original game. I'd like it if it played more like the trailer, which is very well done. Almost none of the CG used in this trailer was in the game:

    ANY kind of decent platformer will be good right now. I'm tired of not playing anything since Ratchet & Clank: Quest for Booty.

    @Gorilla Snow is hot for Snorlax: We're getting a decent amount of platformers on 2D, specially on the DS. I mean a 3D platformer.

    @liquid_kore: That picture alone might be enough for me to rent/buy this game when it comes out. I've heard of the first one, but I know absolutely nothing about it.


    That Giant snail is, for lack of a better word, SCARY!! And usually the only thing I'm frightened of is the thought of a girl telling me she's pregnant.

    @Weirdwolf: Snails are all hermaphrodites, so when they mate, they both end up pregnant. Just imagine two of Those snails mating. *Shudders* uh.. snail sex.

    @kablammyman: I don't know, really, people are just flaming around. Am I the only person who really enjoyed that game as a complete experience?


    Sure, there were some places where game design was a bit off, but as a complete story it was great! One of few titles that had me drawn into the world so much that I would actually play it 'till the end without any cheating.


    Gears of War bored me at some point, so did Bioshock, so did Dead Space, GTA IV was a joke - to name but a few recent titles. But I have finished Alice twice. So perhaps it's not for the crowd of console 'tards, but for people with imagination?

    @Barts: Dunno I loved Alice plus Bioshock and GTA IV. So perhaps it's got nothing to do with 'tards but just people might have a DIFFERENT FUCKING TASTE in games to yourself?
