Sorry PlayStation 3 fans, more bad news. The anticipated mystery-of-a-mystery game Alan Wake has just been confirmed to be an exclusive for the Xbox 360 and PC (Vista is being pushed here). Now go be like Justin and cry me a river:
The Microsoft connection will also set limits to the Remedy games. Alan Wake will require either the Windows Vista operating system or Microsoft's Xbox 360 gaming console as its platform. The game will not be translated for other consoles. Myllyrinne does not see this as a hindrance. The fact that the game does not have to be translated to all different platforms will simplify and speed up its production.
[Thanks Aetsen]

UNTHINKABLE!!1
Seriously though, wasn't this already confirmed back at E3 06 when it was announced that MGS was the publisher?
Yes, in fact. It was. Go to 1:08 in this video.

"Exclusively on Windows and Xbox 360"
Why do all protagonists in Remedy Games look constipated? Max Payne, A. Wake...
MS is publishing the game for Xbox 360 onto DVD.. but this could've been released onto other consoles..
It was REMEDY who developed this game from the ground up
