It appears digital piracy is to blame for I Am Alive's all-but-confirmed PC snub. Reflecting on the future of Ubisoft Shanghai's urban disaster game, creative director Stanislas Mettra told IncGamers the upcoming title will likely appear for download on XBLA and PSN, but skip a PC version altogether for fear of losing money on illegal downloads...
If you're running a densely-packed gaming database like Hardcore Gaming 101 and putting together your first hard-copy, made-of-paper book for the public, you'll probably want to start with something small: “Metro City Limits: More Final Fight Clones Than You Require,” or “Remember Irem?” or some such. Or, hell, you could just start out with a guide to most every old-school graphic adventure ever made, presumably launching Hardcore Reading About Gaming 101 in the process.
