Whatever Happened to Alan Wake?
Dreadnought \| 12:55 PM on 07.18.2008	17 comments

A couple of years ago, I was filled with glee when I viewed the trailer for the Windows/360 thriller. In an apparent homage to David Lynch's Twin Peaks, I believed this was a game that would give me a deep emotional disturbance, something I have not experienced since the original Silent Hill.

Unfortunately, disappointment soon became the general feeling for this game. It started with Remedy's release date of "When it's done." I first assumed the game would be given the highest quality in gaming experiences. However, this was stated back in 2006 with no real updates since.

With no listings at E3 2008 or Microsoft Spring Showcase 08, will Bright Falls ever see the light of day?

It's going to be at Tokyo Game Show. That has been confirmed in a number of places.

A main factor is an open environment where light plays a crucial role in the game.

I have the same feeling towards Heavy Rain, And no news at E3 didn't help either.

Huxley.

@Gynecologist Cobra The announcement of MAG made me instantly think of Huxley.

It must be because nobody shows their cool stuff at E3 anymore.

Heavy Rain was shown behind closed doors at E3. journalists can't talk about what they saw though. N'gai Croal said it looked AMAZING.
