Alan Wake - He's Coming!

Pioneer · 02-22-10, 11:19 PM

There have been two games I have previewed, that I can use the word "stunned" to describe how I felt about them. One of them, is about to debut.

5 years ago at Gamers Developers Conference I had the opportunity to put my hands on a forthcoming release. The mechanics of the game was soon impressive, I ended up doing an interview and a feature on the game.

And now, it has a release date.

Alan Wake, billed as a psychological thriller, is to finally make a worldwide release this May. At one time a multi platform project, it is now only planned for release on XBox 360.

This game was so impressive, I'll probably buy an XBox just for this game.

But for now, I already have the tshirt...unworn from 5 years ago.

awww, shame it's only 360, wasn't it originally going to be PS3 exclusive? Or was that something else?

Anyway I'm eagerly awaiting delivery of Heavy Rain

My brother rented it yesterday, just started today while I waited to go to the dentist. Looks interesting so far

Ah well. A shame, that. I remember seeing something about this years ago and it looked interesting.

This is the second reason I got a 360. Although I hope I can finish it. I tend to creep myself out of certain games.
