There was supposed to be a sequel to this, but EA being EA has it legally tied up and won't release the rights to American McGee.

He's actually pretty messed up about it, to the point where he retired.

Unfortunately the creator of these games has said that EA has no interest in doing anything else Alice related and also won't return the rights to him. So, this series is just dead on the shelf. This is part of his statement from a year ago:

"We did everything we could as a team and a group of fans to convince EA to let this next chapter happen. EA decided to kill the project and the possibility of any future for Alice. That decision is on them. But we can make a decision of our own – and it's a strong decision to make – to move on. That is what we do have in our power."

While he was specifically talking about a third game, rather than a remaster of this, I take his statement to mean they're not going to even do a remaster.

Someone at EA has it out for American Magee. Likely because both are a PITA to work with.

The original did. However the mods on the Nexus will be probably be the closet thing we get.

Very happy to pick it up at this price point on Steam considering 360 store closed without this going on sale, physical 360 copies are going for $20+ at this point, and MSFT wants to charge $20 to get it digitally on their newer consoles at this moment.

Good price, but I refuse to give EA any money for this series considering their sabotaging of it.

Works great on Winlator on my S24 Ultra. You can find it on abandonware sites. 😉

No, you don't.

I just got the game and uninstalled "EA App" just to check (Had it for Battlefield games) and it did not install it like some games.

I don't think "Origin" exist anymore and its just called "EA App".
