Eden To Patch 360 Alone In Dark To Equal PS3 Version >
2008/08/21 16:36:24: Posted by DM
Eden Studios, the developer of Alone in the Dark for Atari, has said it is preparing a patch for the Xbox360 version of the game. This patch will put the MS console edition of the game on par with the apparently heavily re-worked Sony PS3 version. The PS3 edition was shown at Leipzig by the developer, who owned up to the rather big flaws that the 360 version of the game suffered from. The initial reports are that the PS3 edition feels much better, to say the least. Of course, no word on when this patch may be available, by that time you should be able to pick up the game for Xbox360 used for a very cheap price.

Blame Phil Harrison for this !!!!!

lol!

But if the patch can do it to make it equal to PS3 version, then why didn't they do it in first place... Stupid Developers...

blacktiger:

You and I agree twice in the same day??? That is a record!!!

Developers seem to have the following attitude for some of their games:

Step 1: Release the game on Xbox 360, since the Xbox 360 version is so much easier to program for.

Step 2: Release the game on PS3 a lot later, but try to include things like extra characters or extra levels.

Step 3: After the PS3 version has launched, let the Xbox 360 owners of the game Download the extra characters and levels that were included in the PS3 version.

Step 4: Release a new Platinum Hit version for the Xbox 360, which will include all of the Downloads from Xbox Live...that way the Xbox 360 version has all the stuff from the PS3 version, and will still be at a lower price than the PS3 version.

Normally the Xbox 360 games launch with software that is great without glitches...But Alone in the Dark was a game that had some glitches. It shouldn't have been released so soon.

The devs really screwed up on the 360 version. This game did NOT sell well on the 360. The ps3 version is better so now they've gotta go back and fix the messed up 360 version. Pretty simple

dudeman:

You, blacktiger, and I all agree on something!!!

Atari is in danger of getting kicked off of public stock listing because they are doing so poorly. Messing up on an Xbox 360 release is even worse than messing up a PC game, since the Xbox 360 is even easier than a PC to program a game for.

Atari needs to get their act together or its over for them.

Blacktiger:

You're not making sense. If they can patch the 360 version, why didn't they just release it patched to begin with? What? Do you think half of the studio is doing nothing while the game is being optimized for the ps3? The improvements after the 360's release are being added to the ps3 version natively and to the 360 version through a patch. Is this really so hard to understand?

Krogan:

Shut up, your ASSumption about the developers attitude towards development is WAY off.

krogan, no i don't agree with you. EVER.

shut the **** up.
