The Limited Edition of Alone in the Dark has been revealed, and it has some surprisingly juicy stuff. It includes:

• Alone in the Dark game, one of the most anticipated games of the year;
• Figurine of the game’s legendary hero, Edward Carnby;
• Official Soundtrack CD featuring 8 in-game tracks of original music by Olivier Derivière and performed by Grammy® Award-winning choir The Mystery of Bulgarian Voices;
• Full colour, bound art book featuring never before seen production sketches, storyboards and original artwork from Eden Games;
• ‘Making Of’ documentary feature DVD with exclusive interviews, behind the scenes footage and additional bonus content.

And the box looks awesome too.

This is a story that has been created, and then torn apart within the space of a few hours, which is pretty awesome. But I arrived late, as typical for me.

There were reports lying around that an ex-Activision Underground employee had said that after Call of Duty 5, Infinity Ward would be the sole developer of the Call of Duty series.

Since then, Activision has come out, and told Eurogamer that it was a total lie, or “fabrication”, as they put it, and that Treyarch and Infinity Ward will still make the series in alternation.

Now, I have to admit that I was holding my breath at the tip-off. Infinity Ward have made the original CoD title, along with CoD2 and CoD4, and quite frankly, they are the best at doing it, so Treyarch are an inferior developer. There, I said it. Who remembers Call of Duty 3? I honestly felt like it slipped under the radar. Couple that with the amount of people that bought Modern Warfare, and now know Infinity Ward to be the makers of CoD4, and ergo by standard thoughts, they make the series. So people are going to be bummed out.

Make IW the sole developer! They know the series, damn it.
