Re: Alan Wake (360)
it's not Alan Wake, they came out in the forums and said that it's not a first party game
No it's not. Alan Wake isn't a first party title. Remedy isn't owned by Microsoft, MS simply have publishing rights.
Development is continuing as strong as always. Hang in there.http://www.myspace.com/phillthegenesis

Re: Alan Wake (360)
And I don't blame them when so many people write off early versions of games that are shown if they aren't perfect.Originally posted by BlzerLet me assure you that I am a huge proponent of size, and it greatly matters. Don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise.
If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)Comment

Re: Alan Wake (360)
More developers should follow their lead."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

Re: Alan Wake (360)
The goodies from X06 are starting to come out, so we bring you screenshots of Alan Wake, the upcoming psychological action thriller from Microsoft Game Studios and Remedy Entertainment. The game centers around Alan Wake, a famous writer who finds himself one day in a strange town, trapped in some sort of nightmarish world. (Hmm... a writer, trapped in a nightmarish world in a small town... where have I heard that before...)
For now, we don't have much to go on, so here are the screenshots just released today, as well as information from Microsoft's fact sheet on the game. We'll bring you more about Alan Wake once we've gotten the chance to get our hands on it (or new media for the game comes out, whichever happens first.)
Fact Sheet
Product Overview
“Alan Wake” is a psychological action thriller from Remedy, the legendary and renowned developers of highly successful action titles. In this exciting new title exclusively for Windows and Xbox 360, gamers assume the role of Alan Wake, a best-selling suspense author who escapes to a small town to recover from the mysterious disappearance of his fiancée.
Set in the deceptively idyllic town of Bright Falls, Wash., “Alan Wake” immerses players in an intense and expansive cinematic world that enables players to roam freely in hyper-realistic, dynamic and interactive environments. “Alan Wake” is mission-based with a deeply engaging and suspenseful story line unveiling new twists and profound character revelations at every turn. Players will unravel the riveting plot through multilayered character interactions, unique problem-solving and intense combat against terrifying enemies. In this nightmarish world, Alan Wake must use a variety of weapons to survive, including his most powerful ally against the creatures of darkness — light itself.
Features
Intense psychological thriller: “Alan Wake” delivers a deeply psychological and finely crafted plot that raises the bar for storytelling in video games. The riveting story of “Alan Wake” is propelled by a movie-like atmosphere, compelling situations, memorable characters and real-time pacing. Remedy has a record of creating and developing games with unique cinematic presentation and exceptionally high production values. The developer has harnessed next-generation gaming technology to tell a powerful story that immerses the gamer in the intense emotion and suspense of Alan Wake’s thrilling adventure.
Massive, open world to explore:
The free-roaming elements and massive open world allow gamers to investigate the mysteries of Bright Falls and encourage them to explore and pay close attention to detail.
Light as a combat element: As the story progresses, nights grow longer and days grow shorter. This poses a severe problem for Alan Wake since his enemies seemingly gain strength from the shadows, and before long light itself becomes his greatest ally. Players must skillfully combine their use of light with more conventional weapons to stand a chance against these creatures of darkness.
Realistic, interactive environment: Set in the town of Bright Falls, the hyper-detailed environments of the Pacific Northwest play an important role; even the change in daylight and weather will profoundly affect the characters and enemies in “Alan Wake.” The game’s advanced rendering engine provides amazingly realistic environments that bring this world to detailed life — from the lush forest of evergreen trees to the quaint small-town buildings and streets. The world of “Alan Wake” is alive and real.
Episodic narrative: The mission-based structure of “Alan Wake” creates an episodic narrative similar to a deeply structured dramatic television series. As the episodes progress, gameplay will evolve to introduce new elements and characters, escalating the level of threat and action in the game.

Re: Alan Wake (360)
I wouldn't doubt Remedy, the Max Payne games were very impressive looking with the original Max Payne on the PC setting the bar for graphics when it came out. The screens above aren't new, they were released in 05 and 06, so who knows what it looks like now.Go Noles!!! >>----->Comment
