Our friends at Big Download took both the PC and Xbox 360 versions of Alone in the Dark for a spin in an updated version of Big Versus. In their words, "Shying away from our original concept of which is better than the other, Big Versus has transformed to a comparison piece regarding our overall experiences." So which version left them with a more positive half-smile? Check it out here.

We really took the comments people made about previous Big Versus features and tweaked it into an article that makes more sense to our community. Thanks for the tips everyone!

So, is the PC version playable? The article didn't shed much light. The previews looked good, but recent gameplay footage looked bad.

But if the PC version is decent, I may just 'aquire' it ;)

The PC version is playable but the controls are rough. If you have a gamepad you'd be better suited hooking it up to the game.

I really enjoyed the 360 version. It's going to be the most under-rated game of the year IMHO

I have to say I preferred the older, more definitive version of the Big Versus than this one.
