Alan Wake confirmed for 2008

Alan Wake is probably one of the most anticipated games of the moment after the recent footage. That's why it is too bad that Remedy Entertainment today confirmed that game won't come out before early 2008.

The game is planned for a release on Xbox 360 and Windows Vista.

2008? That really sucks, i was expecting this game within the next 6 months.

Moostache6353d ago

Just look at how many times Half-Life 2 was delayed before it was finally released....

The bottom line is if the choice is between a really good unfinished game or a polished classic, I'll wait the extra time gladly...

THWIP6353d ago

...since there's been so little shown so far.
However, with MS publishing, you can bet your ass, that if the game is 95% done by Thanksgiving 2007....that game is shipping for X-mas.

Kind of a goody story...

On a serious note, that is why I try activating gift cards asap. It's happened to me where the store didnt scan it right where the card was unusuable. Happened at Wally World.

I just bought two of the MonsterVerse Godzilla movies on 4K - both had digital copies expiring in 2023. Both were actually expired.

I'd be surprised but it's WB, of course they'd actually expire them

Usually most of those redemption card have an expiry date on them. If they expired all buyer did was buy recycled paper. And some of those codes are country locked to certain countries. I buy a card from the States I can't use it in Canada.

Dumb and silly story. She wasted her money for no reason.

Is it really that hard to go to Steam or GOG. She spent $240, when its currently 70% off on GOG, and only costs $4.49.

Gee, I wonder, should I spend $240 on eBay, or $4.49 on GOG? 🙄

Rynxie9d ago

Most likely she wanted to resell a few or most of them. However, it was a too good to be true situation.

So in short she paid $240.00 assuming usd for a bunch on unactivated game codes.

I still don't understand why I guess cause there's not a physical version and she wanted something for a collection or art project.

Rynxie9d ago

No, most likely to resell. However, she ended up getting screwed.

This is Alan Wake 1, it had physical copies.

A thermos is upending the Alan Wake community

Remedy has Alan Wake merch on sale, including a pretty blue thermos. Unfortunately, things haven’t gone according to plan, and many players who want a thermos find themselves without one, though it does appear that Remedy is attempting to fix things. Nevertheless, it has resulted in a lot of upset, illustrating just how much the thermos means to Alan Wake fans.
