Alone in the Dark: Inferno, the re-worked version of Atari's survival horror, er ... horror, is coming to the PlayStation 3 on November 19. Not only is it supposedly "better" on Sony's console (due to more polish and heavy tweaks), but it'll make you get up dance, too. 

Atari has passed along the latest trailer for the game, which features a remix by producer/DJ Tiesto. The ass-shaking beats will be available on a CD single, digital download, and a limited edition 12" picture disc vinyl on Streamline records on November 18. 

All of this dancing has tired out my legs, but I'm still not sure if I'm going to be willing to take the plunge on this re-worked version of Alone in the Dark. Yeah, it'll have fancy PS3 Trophies and it lands at retail at a "discounted" price of $49.99. But I still have the taste of disappointed in my mouth from the Xbox 360 release.

OK fine, I admit it ... I'm just kind of scared.

Ung... Played the demo, still seemed the same to me from when I played the 360 demo. Aside from the ps3 demo adding the car level into it... At least I think the 360 demo didn't have it...? Either way still more than likely will be a bargain bin buy. I saw it at target for pc several times for a whopping $7 on clearance and I still passed it up.

Does this remind anyone else of the trailer for Parasite Eve?

I take for granted that they'll port those improvements and fixes to the 360 version... right?

I don't really think they can fix this broken game.

If I get this, will I have to write a post entitled "Alone in the Dark PS3: God Help Me, I Like Techno Even More Now"?

Played the demo, this game is fucking terrible on a purely gameplay perspective. Graphics and story seem great, but what does that all mean if you have different controls for every different scenario.

Question: If a patch/update goes out for the 360 version of Alone in the Dark: Whatever Subtitle that makes major changes, will Destructoid (or should they) re-review the game?

Played the demo too, I've played the 360 and PS3 demos now and sadly the difference is slight. Yes its good that accessing your inventory now freezes the action, that just makes basic common sense. Yes the third person controls are somewhat improved. Aside from those things I barely noticed any difference with the demo.

The first person view is still surprisingly bad, combat still too awkward, controls still too complicated. The car level was annoying as well, even with checkpoints it's still an annoyingly overly scripted piece of trial and error.

It was good that they've tried to fix it, but without completely overhauling the game I just don't think it'll ever be fixed.

This was a solid game on 360 so it's nice to see such a large range of improvements. Gunna be good
