Alice: Madness Returns

Some of you may recall a PC game that released in 2000 called American McGee's Alice. It was a twisted tale that took place after Through the Looking Glass in which Alice's family is killed in her burning house and she is later institutionalized in an asylum after loosing touch with reality. Ten years later she is sucked into a Wonderland that has become a warped and gruesome version of itself due to Alice's own insanity. She then must save Wonderland and in turn her own sanity.

American McGee is now releasing Alice: Madness Returns in the last quarter of 2011. This game is to be released for the PS3, XBox 360, and PC. You'll find this sequal to be just as gruesome as the original. Set eleven years after the first game, Alice is released from the asylum to the guardianship of a psychiatrist who is helping her deal with her parents' death. As her mind tries to cope she is again sucked into Wonderland only to find that it is being taken over by an unknown evil and that Wonderland has been warped by her insanity one more time. During her quest she also tries to track down the true nature of her parents' deaths.

From initial reports the sequel seems to be identical to the original game although we can only hope that McGee takes care of this during gameplay. Either way, a bloody, gruesome Wonderland awaits...
