    ....Trying to start a new game. Seriously, this game has one of the worst saving interfaces ever. Once you start a game, the game does not let you delete that file or start a new game. You actually have to go into the Xbox memory options and then delete the save file from there. Honestly I had a real "What fucking year are we in?" moment here. It's not like my enjoyment is lessened by it or anything, I just can't believe that a game would ship like this....

    Roughly a third of the recent games I've played have had no in-game save deletion interface. I'm surprised you haven't come across it more.

    But you're right. I find it very frustrating when I have to cross-reference in-game and in-system timestamps to ensure I don't delete my most current save.

    At least most games have a "new game" option which essentially deletes your save file. Your options in Alice are "Continue game" or nothing...
