TGS 09: Alan Wake has a helicopter in it, confirmed photo

Despite delays, the marketing people at Remedy Entertainment and Microsoft have been pretty good about releasing in-game images of Alan Wake. Tons of oft-delayed titles rarely get this sort of treatment. With most games in Wake’s position, we get the singular “hey, this thing is still happening,” screen or the Duke Nukem Forever 2x2 pixel. But Wake is no Dead Rising 2 or DNF. The stuff below proves that.

Microsoft released these babes for TGS 09. All of them feature a stoic Alan Wake doing something in the dark -- stuff like looking backwards, evading a car, and even diving away from a helicopter. There isn’t much to glean other than the fact that there is a helicopter, which is actually big news around here. Day one purchase (and helicopter): confirmed.

oh joy, yet another game where they say there's a pc version but they don't do it until a year after it's initial release with crap graphics at full price.

I thought pc games were $50.

Yeah, and for PC $50 is full price. Your point?

Console games cost more because Xbox and Sony and them take a cut. PC no one takes a cut. That said, Activision has priced Modern Warfare 2 at $60 just to be pricks, and people will probably pay it, and then we will pay $10 more for nothing. Yay.

It's been too long since we've had a good inFamous (Game of the Year material) vs Prototype (mediocre game, crazy fun anyway, how'd that happen?) fanboy war. I think it's time for another one.

Heavy Rain is going to be fantastic and Alan Wake will be lucky to average a 65 on Metacritic. Go!

How long has this fucking game been in development? I feel like I've been hearing about this game since before the 360 was released and I still know little to nothing about it. I don't have a lot of confidence in games that have taken this long to develop.

I think you feel that way because it's true. I'm pretty sure this was one of the titles being touted on the original Xbox 360 packaging.

It looks good, but yeah, that's a lot of development time.
