Alan To Wake In 2008??? News

US publication reports that Remedy's psychological action thriller may be at least twelve months away...

A highlight of both E3 2005 and X06, Remedy's Alan Wake has been something of an elusive title, only popping up once in long while; and if reports from the US Official Xbox Magazine are accurate, then it may be quite some time before the psychological action thriller finally makes its appearance at retail...

According to the publication, the game has been pencilled for a release in the US during 2008, although publisher Microsoft Game Studios is yet to confirm or deny the report.

TVG saw the latest preview of the game back at September's X06, where Remedy refused to put any sort of release period on the title.

We'll have more news shortly...

Compare Bioshock or Dead Space to TES IV: Oblivion or Farcry 2 or Fallout 3. As great as sandbox games are I think this new direction will make Alan Wake much more satisfying as a story and as a thriller.

	By: Anonymous Added:Fri 10th Jul 2009 20:26, Post No: 31 For a couple of years nowI have been flamed and even banned at one gaming site for saying AAA mainstream PC gaming is on it's last legs. I say this as a 20 year PC gamer who has never owned a console. I say this eith a sad heart. But it's what I beleive. This is just another one of many signs that what I have predicted is coming true. Last year Gamespot reviewed just 52 PC games, the year before it was 98. The average review score in 2008 was 68%,in 2007 it was 75%. Retail stores around the world are having clearout sales. There'll still be the odd indie game,and of course we have easy pc retro gaming thanks to DOSBox and sites like GOG, but no longer will there be the headlines and the mainstream coverage of PCgaming as we have had for the last 15-20 years. It will be on the periphery, like stamp collecting is today, or folk music. Not gone completely, but a lot less visiable to the general gaming marketplace. I wouldn't be surprised if we get this same situation with Borderlands - and they'll be more. It's so so sad, but it has to be said so there is a just a miniscule chance of change happening at the last minute....

	By: SegaBoy Added:Thu 09th Jul 2009 12:38, Post No: 29 I'm beyond caring about Alan Wake now. Evidently Remedy revealed that game way, way too early... It looked awesome three years ago, but everything has come on a long way now. The only way Alan Wake can possibly suceed is by being a great game - I'm not entirely sure whether shining lights before shooting the enemy sounds like a particularly great or innovative combat mechanic. I've got a better idea - STOP working on alan Wake and put Remedy back on Max Payne 3 - that way we might actually see Payne heading back to where he belongs.
