Does this game still include the 1st Alice game?
Back when Alice Madness Returns was released, the sequel had thre original game available for download for free. Is this still happening?

Nope, it doesn't (sadly, as I would love to play the original as well).

Actually, you can still get the DLC dresses by modifying a line in one of the game files.
As for the original game, no it's unfortunately not included. I believe it was a pre-purchase exclusive.

@19delta3 That is my understanding of it too. Very annoying to know that it has been updated to work on todays hardware and could be sold. But for some reason isnt available, even in the Origin store apart from that one pre-order period.

Perhaps its some licensing problem, as I cant believe any software company would refuse to sell a finished product without a decent reason.

Whatever the reason, I for one am not buying the game on PC until it is available together with the frist game.

I suppose I may eventually have to consider getting it for console as I believe both the PS3 and Xbox 360 version included it. At least for a while.

Apparently you guys aren't aware that the version with the 1st game, dresses, and weapons is still available. They just haven't released it on steam.

I got the Complete Collection off amazon for 7.50 - it went on sale during holiday and again in early January. It installs on Origin, but once installed, i just launch it through Steam, and take screen shots with steam overlay and I dont even open Origin.

Game is gorgeous and plays fantastic so far. Original Alice plays nicely so far as well, but I've not played it much as I own the original box and beat Alice several times.

you can unlock all the dresses with .ini code for regular version of Alice.
- Go to My Documents\My Games\Alice Madness Returns\AliceGame\Config\
- Open AliceEngine.ini (after making a backup copy)
- under [AliceGame.AliceGameEngine], change GIsSpecialPCEdition=FALSE to TRUE will unlock all DLC dresses and weapons.

The only thing you dont get is Original Alice - you may see the in-game link to launch the game, but without the files it will not work. If original alice is what you're after then you'll need the Complete Collection which you can get from the amazon link mentioned above.

Is this even legal that they sells it on steam without the first one ?

I bought this game on steam but it is in my origin library (uninstalled) now. Does anybody know if I was to download it through origin would it include the first game ?

Why wouldn't it be? If EA wants it to be that way, then it will be.

It does not. I didn't know if it ever did actually. Had the game for years and I can't see the first one in my library. Was it a pre order bonus or something??

The EA Origin (not original) version is the 'complete' editition with the extra weapons, dresses, and first game.

The Xbox 360 version is the same as the Steam version but came with an unlock code to get the first game on Xbox 360.

Unforntately Alice must have come out in the middle of EA's launch of Origin. They are at the top in terms of publisher size (and not much else) and feel arrogant enough to only sell online through their client. It basically means you'll never see the first game released on Steam unless EA falls on very hard times.

No, I believe Xbox and PS3 versions came with a download code for the original Alice game in HD. This game sucks in my opinion. I beat it on hard. It is one of the most stylistically nausieting games ever

The original Alice game that comes with the Complete Collection is found/launched from inside the Madness Returns game. Start Madness Returns and you will see the option to "Play American McGee's Alice".
