One of the best parts of a video game is the ending, but who has the time to go back and play through every game? Let me introduce you to Game Over: The Early Years, the weekly show where we dive into classic games and spoil both their stories and endings. From the biggest hits to obscure classics, we're taking a look at some of the best and most memorable conclusions in video game history.

Over the last few years, we've been recapping the on-going adventures of Edward Carnby in the Alone in the Dark series. It has become a Halloween tradition. So, now that we've investigated Derceto, survived Hell's Kitchen and uncovered the secrets of Slaughter Gulch, it's time for the private eye to do something he's never done before -- hit the reset button. That's right, Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare is a reboot of the franchise, finally bringing Carnby into the 21st century. It has a whole new story, new attitude, new characters and none of the old timey baggage from the first three games. Turn back now if you don't want to know what happens next, because today we're going to spoil the story and ending for Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare. This is Game Over: The Early Years!


Still want more endings? Then I recommend you discover 23 Endings: The Early Years, the holiday series that ran during the 2017 holiday season. We cover Ninja Gaiden, Street Fighter II, Super Mario Bros. 2, Ghostbusters, Golden Axe, Metroid, Double Dragon, Flashback, Final Fight and many more!
