McGee was fired from id Software in 1998, but it all worked out pretty well for him.

    God I wish the IP didn’t belong to EA. It has so much potential, I always wanted Alice 3 to be a Soulslike personally but I know American McGee himself had some ideas already for Alice: Asylum to be the next installment. Shame EA doesn’t give two fucks about the franchise.

      That would definitely keep me from buying it; I can’t stand those sorts of games. I did like the first two, though, and still have the CD for the first one kicking around.

    Calling American McGee “Alice creator” with no additional context is a bit absurd.

      The article contains all the context that is needed. You can’t have a full blown article as a title.

    In an alternate reality, people played Sid Meier’s Alice and American McGee’s Civilization
