Alice: Madness Returns is set over a decade after the original game.
Alice is finally free from the Rutledge Insane Asylum, and is placed into the care of a psychiatrist who will try to help her conquer her nightmarish hallucinations. Alice is still struggling to recover from the emotional trauma of the fatal fire that accidentally killed her family. The repressed memories start to come back to her, but the stress caused by regaining these lost memories cause her hallucinations and internal struggle to increase in severity.
Alice embarks on an adventure to try to retain her sanity by seeking out the truth of her families’ mysterious accidental death and to save the residents of Wonderland from the evil that is trying to take over. Cross worlds between a gloomy London setting to a richly provocative Wonderland.
Sega publishing Gearbox’s long-awaited game sequel to landmark sci-fi film early next year for the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360; first trailer inside.
Sega and Gearbox have at last announced a release date for their long-awaited game sequel to James Cameron’s classic sci-fi film Aliens. This morning, the publisher and developer revealed that Aliens: Colonial Marines will ship for the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 in spring 2012. (A previously revealed DS edition of the game was not mentioned.) Also, no rating information for the title was available, but given the gory subject matter, an M for Mature label is likely.
Aliens: Colonial Marines’ story will pick up shortly after the events of Aliens. Players will join a squad of the titular space soldiers who board the USS Sulaco, the spaceship the film, after it is apparently abandoned. From there the action will spread to the surface of the planet LV-426 and its main settlement, Hadley’s Hope. The first-person shooter will also feature environments and weapons inspired by the film.
