GI:In one of the classiest moves in recent memory, Remedy's creative director Sam Lake has taken to video to answer fan cries for a new Alan Wake title. The news isn't great, but the delivery strikes the perfect chord.
Alan Wake, from Max Payne and Control creator Remedy, is a horror classic, prompting one player to buy 4,000 copies that don’t even work.
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? 🙄
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.
Sam Lake has been a key player behind the success of Remedy Entertainment, and the heart of classics like Max Payne, Quantum Break and Control.
TechStomper's Stuart Cullen speaks to the Finnish visionary about Alan Wake 2.
What a POS. No audio or the lip sync is off in cut scenes. This is affecting all platforms. Fix ur f@#king game!
After 2019’s Control became a breakout hit, Remedy’s creative director Sam Lake has returned with Alan Wake 2 – his strangest game yet.
Translation: MS didnt want to fund a games development which wasn't going to sell and gave us another chance to make a new IP
Typical MS eh, why dont Remedy go multiplatform. I want AW2 so badly
Remedy stopped on the second game again.. I like new ips but i wanted to see another canon alan wake badly..
So if ms push out sequels it is bad. If the push for a new iPhone it is bad. Lose, lose.
Cool insightful video. I wish every game developer would do this on a regular basis. It means so much more coming from their mouths.
That's a shame, but I think it's more important to get a new IP out at the launch of the Xbox One than to do a sequel. Also, it's nice to hear the original Alan Wake has gone on to sell over 3 million copies since launch.
That is a success in every sense of the word, hopefully they can go back to crafting Alan Wake 2 for the Xbox One down the road a bit. Remedy are master storytellers though, so I'll definitely be paying attention to Quantum Break.
