Remedy: Alan Wake is finally "done" News
Xbox 360 PC News by Robert Purchese
Finnish developer Remedy has revealed that the long-awaited Alan Wake is now finished.
"It's all done, we're just polishing at this point," boss Matias Myllyrinne told Joystiq at GDC Europe, which precedes the gamescom consumer event over in Cologne, Germany this week.
Remedy will have Alan Wake in tow at that German show, but only be regurgitating the presentation shown at E3 in July to the best of our knowledge. That's the same one we posted exclusively on EGTV yesterday, you know.
We also popped Alan Wake on our analysis couch at E3. And then wrote about it.
Alan Wake is due out exclusively on Xbox 360 in spring 2010. A PC version will follow, and a demo of either is unlikely.

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/remedy... They are focusing on the 360 but they dont deny a PC version. Personally i dont think there will be a PC version for a looong time if ever.

The "PC version" is a guess. Change the article until it's actually concrete, eh? You're providing fanboy fodder and PC owners an excrutiating wait if it a) ends up being good and b) annoyance if it is good and it doesn't turn up. Think of the hurt you're spreading!

Yeah the latest vid looked like it could do with some more time on the engine - it also looked a lot more interesting than the E3 vids. It's a pity more games don't have the extra time for this sort of polish built in to their schedules as something which *has* to happen. Many would elevate themselves well above mediocrity with a bit more time.

I've sooo got my fingers crossed for this one. I love 3rd Person Action Adventures but haven't enjoyed them as much since Shenmue and Eternal Darkness. Even RE 4 started to get a bit 'seen it all before' towards the end.
I don't think theres too much you can do with the basic mechanics of 3PAA games now so it will ultimately come down to how good the story and atmosphere are. Something that Remedy seem to be heavily concentrating on fortunately. :) |

@muscleblade
thnx for the link and i remember I read this in this site along with others too :) But yeah I do feel the same way about a PC release neither I'm saying there wont be one :P Just making clear that there is no word for PC version yet. I just really hope its great. Wish it could give me the feeling the first Silent Hill ever did when it first came out. THAT was amazing back then. Good times :) |

Wasn't the PC version going to be a demo of the fantastic, up-n-coming ... DirectX 10?

Alan Wake is finally almost done.
If the current build is the same we got to see in the latest video, we are going to have quite a lot to talk about in DigitalFoundry (framerate! torn frames galore! is it HD or is it under-720p? and so on). That game needs some serious performance boost. I haven't decided yet wether I'm interested in this game or not. A demo should clear all doubts, but I don't see that happening. |

why would you want a pc port of a console game?
Usually pc owners cry about how most games now are built for consoles and then ported to pc, so why do you suddenly want that? |

Alan Wake looks interesting on the 360 but it's nice to hear that the devs are spending another six months polishing it up because it looked very rough from that E3 footage. I'm more interested in buying this for the PC though because I'm not sure that the 360 can do the concept justice. We'll see.

why not release this xmas then,im sure codmw2 wouldnt really dent its sales.i think alan wake will set a new benchmark for next gen graphics with 360 being pushed to the limit.it looks like how alone in dark should have been if done right

whatever the case, you're gonna have to wait longer than 6months for the pc version.
6months of polish.. theres should be no excuse for this game to hit with a bad frame rate, screen tearing, and glitches. |
