Atari has endured some hard times since their initial dominance in the games industry, but the company is on the rise and ready to make an impact again. Hardcore Gamer was lucky enough to preview a few of Atari's upcoming games during PAX Prime, including Alone in the Dark and Haunted House.
The armadillo returns.
I personally do remember Infogrames in the years prior to merger. They really did have a portfolio that stuck out and I enjoyed. I wonder what value they see in reviving it now though?
The good old days of Driver and Stuntman. Unfortunately both games are long gone.
Skewed and Reviewed have posted a video showing what Atari had on display at PAX East 2024.
While managing the games department at Lagoon Amusement Park in the 60s, a young college student named Nolan Bushnell had an idea. Instead of managing and maintaining other vendor’s games, why not start a company and produce his own?
If only they could make a Horrorcoaster game, they'd be set.
All they had to do was make a good Rollercoaster Tycoon game. Instead they made a pay 2 win mobile game.
I really hope these games do well. Atari really needs to come back in a great way.
Haunted House sounds good, but I think Atari's rebooting Alone in the Dark in the wrong way. I could be wrong, though.
Maybe if both games do well, maybe Atari should consider bringing them to consoles...
Horror...yet they've shoe horned co-op into it as some kind of last resort to save the franchise...taking the easy way out.
I find it hilarious the game is called Alone in the Dark and they've turned it 4 player co-op game.
Yeah that's going to be scary alright.
They had a chance to reboot it and they've already failed.
Is it me, or does Haunted House and Alone in the Dark seem like rushed attempts to capture an easy fanbase?
