2009-08-17 20:24:08 I find it sad that they showed such a tech for this game back then, and now they are saying lighting is a very important thing in this game, and they cancel the PC version? |

2009-09-24 14:53:17 New demo section shown at TGS, man sounds so sweet! Alan Wake's arrival in Bright Falls kicked off a series of unfortunate events and that coincidence was not lost on some of the local authorities. One FBI agent named Nightingale thinks Wake is responsible for the whole ordeal and so he has marked Wake as a fugitive and instructed the deputies to fire on sight. Today's demo picked up with Wake in the woods and on the lamb. The fog is thick and the path is rocky, but surrounded by a pine forest. Search lights are scattered in the distance. While it normally is important to stay in the light, these ones are carried by people hunting for you and they spell doom. For the opening moments of the demo, it actually looked a bit like a stealth action game. Wake moved deliberately through the woods, avoiding flashlights as they swept back and forth. At one point, he went under a bridge as lights cast down from above filtered through eerily. It all seemed to be going well until a flare lit up a tree, illuminating the entire area and giving away Wake's location. Gun fire began to rain down and there simply was no choice but to run into the darkness once again. This is where Alan Wake started to earn its designation as an action thriller. The dark presence began creeping through the woods around Wake and the mood turned seriously sinister. It almost felt like the woods were alive and they truly became their own distinct character. I don't want to spoil what happens next because it really is looking like this story is one that will be worth the wait, but I will say that things end on a massive cliffhanger. Remedy clearly has an excellent grasp of what it takes to make a game thrilling and spooky. Everybody is out to get Wake.When the demo finished, Remedy discussed a bit about what to expect in the daytime sections of the game. These portions of Alan Wake are designed to counter the high tension of the night with some humorous and twisted character development and a little exploration. Of course, we were told you can expect to be forced into dark caverns and buildings even when it is light outside, so the daytime can still present some danger. We also were told to expect things done during the day to be reflected on the game later on, perhaps when you revisit a section during the night. I have yet to play Alan Wake, so it's unclear exactly how well the camera changes and slow motion pans will work in practice. Still, this is clearly a game to keep tabs on. While many horror games have shifted towards action or grotesque imagery to attract players, Alan Wake is reminding us how cool a focused thriller can be. --- |

2009-09-27 21:19:02 i really hope this turns out great, becasue next to mass effect 2 it's my most anticipated 360 title next year. the footage i've seen hasnt sold me quite yet. but hopefully when it finally is released, we'll be witness to something really special. if it's anything less then amazing tho, i have a feeling we'll have a bit of a fable 2 on our hands. |

2009-09-30 22:05:18 Expecting the game to be longer than 12 hours is a bit naive, IMO. Hopefully the game won't be regarded in the game length/development time ratio. --- |

2009-11-09 15:44:32 LOL I was there. This video was recorded by my friend. Alan Wake is the best Igromir 2009 game. Even Mass Effect 2, Gran Turismo 5, Heavy Rain, Assassin's Creed and Splinter Cell demo were not so cool. --- |
