ThatGamingSite says:

The heat of the PS3 is set to rise with the release of Alone in the Dark:Inferno later this year. Atari have released a statement saying that the PS3 version is set to be the ultimate experience for Alone in the dark with its many improvements.

The PS3 version does stay true the original storyline and you are still playing as Edward Carnby.

So what makes this version the ultimate one then? Well lets take a look…

PS3 - Alone in the Dark - Alone In The Dark Control Work Around

That Gaming Site Writes: "Since it's release Alone in the Dark has received some pretty harsh criticism regarding the control scheme.

Instead of waiting for the day that may never come we have found a way to make your experience with the controls a little more tolerable!"

PS3 News from N4G | Alone in the Dark

PS3 - Alone in the Dark - PS3 'Alone In The Dark' Changes Not Guaranteed For Xbox 360 Gamers

MTV Multiplayer's Patrick Klepek reports:

"Eden Games is making some much needed control, camera and inventory changes to "Alone in the Dark" before it arrives on PlayStation 3.

These changes are in direct response to criticisms of the Xbox 360 version. At the Leipzig Games Convention, Eurogamer reported news of a patch so Xbox 360 owners could enjoy the same changes.

While checking out the tweaked "Alone in the Dark" in a San Francisco hotel yesterday, game designer Emile Morel couldn't explicitly promise such a patch was coming."

PS3 - Alone in the Dark - Alone in the Dark may debut with budget price

PS3 Fanboy writes: "The long-delayed PS3 version of Alone in the Dark looks to be coming with enhancements ... and a price cut? A Gamestop listing shows Atari's survival horror game with a very nice price of $30. Of course, considering the overwhelmingly negative critical reviews it received when it debuted on Xbox 360, a lower price may still not justify a purchase."

Atari Actually Posts a Profit in Q1

PS3 - Alone in the Dark - Atari Actually Posts a Profit in Q1

Gamedaily.biz writes: "Break out the champagne. After endless losses, Atari has posted a net income of $3.5 million for its first quarter. The release of Alone in the Dark was a big factor.

A couple weeks ago French publisher Infogrames reported its own first quarter fiscal results, revealing a 91 percent rise in sales, which was driven in large part by a "strong recovery" of the U.S. business (i.e. Infogrames' subsidiary Atari). Today, Atari announced its own fiscal results, and Infogrames wasn't kidding: Atari posted a profit of $3.5 million for the quarter, a vast improvement from the net loss of $11.9 million during the same period last year."

PS3 - Alone in the Dark - Atari: Positive Alone in the Dark reviews keep coming

Videogamer writes: "Atari has revealed it wants more from its major summer release, Alone in the Dark, despite the title placing at No.1 in the Xbox 360 chart and at No.3 in the All Formats chart.

"The positive review scores continue to come in and marketing support is scheduled to run through to the end of August," Atari product manager Ben Walker told MCV. "Our target now is to build upon the start and keep Alone in the Dark selling through-out the summer"

We found Alone in the Dark to be one of the most disappointing games of the year so far, scoring only 6/10 despite much early promise and plenty of good ideas"

Legal Mess Over Euro Alone In The Dark Reviews

PS3 - Alone in the Dark - Legal Mess Over Euro Alone In The Dark Reviews

Kotaku summarises: "This week, the following events took place: 1. We got a bunch of tips telling us that the Xbox 360 version of Alone in the Dark had turned up on BitTorrent sites. 2. Scandinavian games site GameReactor were one of the first to review Alone in the Dark. They gave it 3/10. Ouch. However, they then promptly pulled the review, and accusations of shady dealings were levelled against the site by Atari, who said that press copies had only been sent out the day before (the review has since been reinstated, and the 3/10 stands). Odd, seeing as many other European publications also had reviews go live this week, but whatever. 3. German site 4Players reviews the game. Gives it 68%. Then is threatened with legal action by Atari because, yes, Atari had no idea how the site got a copy of the game."

Atari Threatens Reviewer 50,000 Euros for giving Alone in the Dark 68/100

PS3 News from N4G | Alone in the Dark

PS3 - Alone in the Dark - Atari Threatens Reviewer 50,000 Euros for giving Alone in the Dark 68/100

The german videogame site 4players.de reviewed the new 'Alone in the Dark' game and gave 68%. As we know that's quite a low score and influences your decision to buy the game or not. 4players said that 'Alone in the Dark' has a lame story and bad dialogue besides some technical issues like clipping and shitty artificial intelligence.
Atari wasn't happy to hear that and decided to threaten 4players to force them to take the review offline. Atari says that the review is based on a pirate downloaded version and is only set online to make profit through clicks. Atari wants to sue 4players about 50.000 Euros; if they do not take the review offline.

Hit the jump to know all about this unbelievable story!
