Be careful with Mr. Scratch. He might just be a little bit of a psycho.
Part one of a series of developer diaries from Remedy Entertainment for their upcoming Xbox Live Arcade title, Alan Wake's American Nightmare.
Part two of a series of developer diaries from Remedy Entertainment for their upcoming Xbox Live Arcade title, Alan Wake's American Nightmare.
A super special edition of the PC version and American Nightmare is just the beginning.
Alan Wake had a rather lengthy development cycle, and at one point, Remedy’s third person horror game was intended for PC. The game was then slated to go multiplatform before becoming an Xbox 360 exclusive that had the bad luck of launching the same day as Red Dead Redemption. Now, as Remedy puts the finishing touches on the XBLA release of Alan Wake’s American Nightmare, the original game is finally ready for its PC debut. Remedy hasn’t forgotten their PC roots, and intends to make the Alan Wake release something special.
Remedy's game will be released on Steam.
PC gamers will be able to get their hands on what was previously an Xbox 360 exclusive sometime this February. In a forum post, Remedy's community manager revealed that Alan Wake is coming to PC via Steam. The PC version will not use Games for Windows Live and will come with the previously released DLC content, The Signal and The Writer.
Remedy talks about the XBLA game, and announces the first game for PC.
Alan Wake was one of those interesting games that had the misfortune of getting released on the same day as a juggernaut (in this case, Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption). Even with a protracted development cycle, the cancellation of the PC version, and poor sales, the game garnered enough praise from critics and gamers to warrant a new game for XBLA. Revealed at the Spike TV VGAs, Alan Wake’s American Nightmare looks to be more of the cerebral horror game that the first one was. Or is it?
Or is this just another title for Night Springs?
We’re just two days away from seeing the first trailer of the next chapter in the Alan Wake series on the Spike TV VGAs, but we have some interesting news today for fans of Mr. Wake. Last year’s Xbox 360 exclusive was the culmination of years of development, only to release the same day as Red Dead Redemption and have poor sales. While we know an XBLA game called Alan Wake’s Night Springs is on the way, we got word today that there’s something else Alan Wake related.
It's a quick look, but it's sure to get some people pumped.
Spike TV's Video Game Awards has become a popular place to stage major release reveals. Last year’s show saw the announcement of Skyrim which will see release this Friday and a host of other major releases such as Portal 2, Batman: Arkham City and the still mysterious Guillermo Del Toro’s Insane.
Remedy's latest title fails to impress, but still manages some good ideas.
After seven years, Remedy has finally resurfaced with their newest release, Alan Wake, a title which has been in development equally as long. The third person shooter has elements that manage to bring back memories of their previous title, Max Payne. While there’s no bullet-time shooting or film noir storyline this time around, it does keep the fun shooting mechanics that made their previous effort an instant classic.
