what is this game about? whats the story behind whats going on?

 The Wiki summary of it is pretty good:

Set during 2008, the story continues with Edward Carnby, the main protagonist from the original game, looking for answers to strange supernatural and bizarre occurrences while battling his way through the opposition in New York City's Central Park.

The game story centers around myths, allegations, and suspicions of clandestine activity in tunnels found below the park. Upon current speculation, a secret society may have an at least minor degree of involvement with the activities of the game's plot. This shadowy society, or organization, is hinted at in the synopsis found in the official game website, and is said to have protected startling secrets from the public, like possible sinister activities in the park, for years. At the time of the game story, it is assumed that this society's effort to keep its secrets from leaking to the public has failed, where the synopsis states, "...the truth can no longer be contained."

When browsing the official website, there are sections of the site dedicated solely to the mysteries of Central Park. Subjects of investigation include possibly mutated trees, unusual aviary migration behavior in the park, astounding insect invasion problems, as well as the park's value in real-estate; which is stated in the website to be in excess of $528,783,552,000, a finding produced in 2007. In addition, the park's value is compared to the national defense budget, with the park being 26% higher in value than the defense budget in 2007. Also, to further support rumored reports of tunnels found below the park, it is said that the atom bomb was invented by instigation of the Manhattan Project (Curiously enough, Central Park is located in Manhattan). Conclusively, at the time of writing, there is a historical reference to a treaty between The Dutch and The English in 1667, in which The Dutch gained the island of Run in exchange for the Manhattan Islands. Ironically enough, Run suffers from poverty, whilst Manhattan remains one of the most valuable islands in the world.

Alone in the Dark will develop ties between these mysterious aspects of the park, while dealing with supernatural elements as well.

 



This looks like it will be full of win.

I can't wait for this game to come out.

The only thing Im not impressed with is the graphics, everything else from gameplay to the trailor is great, just not pleased with the graphics.
You serious? This could be the gens best yet? Alot of the first playtests in magazines and that say the game engine is quite something to behold. Even in the hd trailer you can see how gorgeous it looks.
