Teaser: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/tgs-10-alice-madness/704476

 

[Visualante]

Bioshock Infinite's character artists could learn something from these, I think.

 

[Luigiv]

Looks pretty.

 

[THE Caffeinated]

Yeeeeeeees, secret favourite upcoming EA game.

 

[jersoc]

style is so awesome. probably looks wonderful in motion.

 

[WickedLaharl]

her eyes aren't big enough.

 

[VoteForPedro]

It looks awome, of course, really like Alice's design.


It will probably end up playing like shit though

 

[Scrow]

unnecessarily low res textures... look at what she's standing on

 

[Amir0x]

the first picture is not near dark and gothic enough. Needs more melting mushrooms and wrist slashing.

 

[Fraeon]

Someone has to tell the guys at EA that the title needs more American McGee.

Also, I'm really liking the second screenshot.

 

[rainking187]

her eyes aren't big enough.

Eye see what you did there.

 

[GothPunk]

She looks like Drusilla from Buffy now, maybe Juliet Landau is voicing her?

 

[Chao]

I really hate how you are supposed to write "American McGee's Alice" . Putting your name on the game title is like the ultimate form of attentionwhorism.

 

[RavenFox]

Glorious. PC or console? Hmmm what to get. Played the original on PC so I guess I should continue on that platform.

 

[Backfoggen]

At least it looks better than Bad Day LA.

 

[Joseph Merrick]

this one isn't going to play like a quake mod hehe. but you've probably got a gamepad amirite

Except when your name is as bad ass as "American McGee"? and marketing did this, not you?

Aside from that, this will be the first boxed PC game I have purchased since Half Life 2. Yes, I am a console & indie/casual player.

 

[Dynoro]

She looks like Drusilla from Buffy now, maybe Juliet Landau is voicing her?

That would be a perfect fit imo

 

[Jerk]

*Seizures*

That is all.

 

[Lost Fragment]

Game seems like a very mixed bag, graphically. Art direction is ace, and the game does look good...but at the same time, it doesn't look good. Like the bullshot equivalent of MySpace angles or something.

 

[Jinfash]

She reminds me of the Evanescence lead singer.

 

[Scrow]

maybe things like that are a marketing call on the publisher's part and he has nothing to do with it.

 

[Corto]

I think not. But this is cool also, let's see though how it pans out at the end.

 

[Chorazin]

Looks awesome, looking forward to playing it when it comes out. I loved the first one, picked it up the day it came out.

 

[pslayer666]

The original Alice was a game I spend countless nights playing as a university student back in the day.... Those were some glorious times.


I can't wait to play this, i'm super hyped and excited, even though those images don't look too polished, I'm sure the final product will no doubt be awesome.

Let the good times roll in again (minus the weed and the all nighters :lol )

 

[Fersis]

Alice + Madness = Malice.

 

[obonicus]

How crooked are the doors this time around?

 

[Mr. B Natural]

How crooked are the doors this time around?

They're next gen crooked

 

[Stumpokapow]

Those textures are truly rotten. Look at the die that Alice is standing on in the first shot, the ground texture near her, the entire floating island chunk, and the cloud/ground-box. Yikes.

The bright vibrant looks is a good one, though.

 

[wizword]

Graphics are awful.

 

[madara]

Wow an EA game that actually looks somewhat interesting to me. Sweet shots.

 

[mrwilt]

Loving the pepper grinder gun.

 

[Combichristoffersen]

Ugly ass textures in that one shot. But still, the first one was pretty amazing, so I'll be getting this day 1.

 

[thefil]

This is one of those games you just want to buy for the art style.

 

[CrunchyFrog]

Grooooovy, lots of nice stuff coming out in the next year. Chalk one more up to my hopelessly insatiable backlog

 

[Purkake4]

Wow, some really nice CG in that teaser.

 

[SturokBGD]

Whoah... the original American McGee's Alice is 10 years old now!?

 

[twinturbo2]

Does anyone have the art that was used for the GamePro cover of this game?

Also, Alice, you got red on you.

 

[Purkake4]

This one?

 

[twinturbo2]

That one, yeah.

 

[momolicious]

Does anybody know if theres a good pic of the the artwork showing just alices face during their announcement?

http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/photos/uncategorized/2009/02/19/_ec_1399.jpg

the one on left

 

[Princess Skittles]

Well, this actually looks good.

 

[darkpaladinmfc]

That one, yeah.

http://zave.dailyrando.it/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/alice_wallp_1920.jpg Cropped though.

 

[MMaRsu]

unnecessarily low res textures... look at what she's standing on

It's a work in progress?

Also, looks damn great.

I know there is one, but I couldn't find it anywhere.
I did find this on McGee's Flickr apparently done by the games art director in his off time:

 

[epmode]

It's like Alice in Wonderland, only DARK AND SCARY

edit: Old Man Murray said it better so

The problem with making a dark and disturbing version of Alice in Wonderland is that it's pretty dark and disturbing to begin with, which gives it little training wheels that help cultural firebrands ride it into geniusdom once every eighteen months or so. Masterminding a trippy reinterpretation of Lewis Carroll is like making a version of Crazy Traxi, only crazy! At this point, about the edgiest thing you could do with Alice in Wonderland is try to make it a little less fucking insane.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Here's a new screen that I ran across

 

[badcrumble]

Bioshock Infinite's character artists could learn something from these, I think.

They don't need any help designing a girl whose eyes are bigger than her waist, thanks. They've shown that they are perfectly good at accomplishing that on their own.

 

[Rush2thestart]

Looks like a breath of fresh air to retail PS3/360 games in terms of art and gameplay. I'll definitely buy this if its good.

 

[Lijik]

It's like Alice in Wonderland, only DARK AND SCARY.

Which is funny, because its one of the most colorful "hardcore" games this entire gen.
