I'm not sure what to make of of the teaser...

I liked the first one but that was before creepy fairy tales really took off. It had great puzzles and an interesting story along with really good visuals.

This makes me very happy. I have fond memories of the original. It's the way I always imagined Alice and wonderland should have been

slipsius · Nov 2009

i never saw the first one, but man, the beginning of that teaser, with the building, all i thought was "9" and "oh crap, not again"... horrible movie. lol

blankslatejoe · Nov 2009

Man, hearing that theme again.... Alice had one of the best game soundtracks ever. Decent game too, full of fun, odd visuals.

danshewan · Nov 2009

I never caught the first one either, but this looks interesting. I really liked the establishing shot of the teaser - very cool.

t4paN · Nov 2009

I saw this earlier, awesome awesome trailer. Very creepy.

Jeremy-S · Nov 2009

I'm really looking forward to this, but why do they have to tease this shit over a YEAR in advance? Ah well, I guess that's a different topic for a different thread.

Alice rules, can't wait (another year...)

Awesome!

But do not like the claymation style of the teaser.

Same here, well more or less I have a problem with how Alice looks slapped together. The cat, the city, the room all look pretty good.

HonkyPunch · Nov 2009

Excited.
Next to Zelda, this was my favorite game as a kid.
Influenced my drawing so much

XenoKratios · Nov 2009

It was a game? Thought it was a movie.

Mark Dygert · Nov 2009

Which one?

Book.

Disney Movie.

Game.

New Movie.

Hottie.

Disco Stu · Nov 2009

i bet theres some movies with such hottys ^^
She indeed looks very slapped togheter.
Cant really sell that as intentional especially with such a nice cat.

is that the style they're intending for the game itself? Would be pretty interesting if so. I actually kinda like the stop-motion feel of the teaser - reminds me of that old Bolex Brothers' film, The Secret Adventures of Tom Thumb.

Vig: don't forget the new Alice on SyFy (ugh...it pains me to type out "SyFy")

Mark Dygert · Nov 2009

I heard about this a while back.

Steve Schulze · Nov 2009

Nice to see I wasn't the only one fooled by Kotaku posting a fan made trailer and reporting it as official. Fools.

never the less it's kinda neat for a fan jobbie.

OBlastradiusO · Nov 2009

I'm kinda digging the claymation stop motion doll look in the teaser. It would be interesting to see that style transfer to the actual game.

Ahh not official, cool. But it is confirmed McGee is working on the sequel.

Marine · Nov 2009

Am I the only one who expects McGee to screw it up like his last few games?

HonkyPunch · Nov 2009

No, I'm sort of expecting it as well.
I'm just really hoping it doesn't happen.
Grimm was an abomination, IMO

Mark Dygert · Nov 2009

It looks like the deal with EA gave Spicy Horse an infusion of cash and they're hiring all kinds of unreal based people. Hopefully they can hire quality. Grim and Bad Day in LA weren't that bad, they weren't that great either. No where near the caliber they need to hit with this, hopefully they can pull in some talent and do it up right.
