The guys over at PSN@Home decided to go about finding the truth to this rumor that was posted on N4G. Their result... "Have not seen this rumor myself thanks for letting me know. No substance to this, Alan Wake is being developed for the 360 and Vista."
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.
Alan Wake 2 continues the writer's story, 13 years later.
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.
Who debunked the rumor? I didn't really see a source or any indication as the the authenticity of the posting. What is Alan Wake by the way?
is some mysterious game for the 360 thats been in development for a while. Not that I care if it does go cross platform but honestly this article to "debunk" "the rumor that was posted on NG4" is the first time I have ever heard of the rumor of this going to PS3 on NG4. I probably missed it, but I just thought it was amusing. It reminds me of the infomercials where people invent something to solve a problem, that was never a problem until they invented this something that would solve it.
If Alan Wake is 3rd party developer and they can develop it cheap enough on the PS3 that they would make money then they would be foolish not to make it cross platform.
EDIT:
Looks like MS is the publisher. So unless the deal falls through or they have some type of open contract I would assume this 2nd party game would not go cross. (unless MS publishing is happy to make the money on the PS3, which they may be).
Publisher: Microsoft Game Studios
Developer: Remedy Ent.
Genre: Modern Action Adventure
Release Date: TBA
There goes my hopes on playing Alan Awake on the most powerful console under the sun.
Remedy Games, if you guys are reading this which you should be, please make MAX PAYNE 3!!!!!! Please...
I agree MAx Payne 3 would be lovely :)
This rumour should have been quickly killed considering M$ is publishing it, its not going to PS3, simple as that.
Man, i'm tired of reading all these stupid rumor stories that aren't true and have no foundation. MGS going to the XBox, Gears of War going to the PS3 and now this. Who is approving these stories anyway??
Enough of these rumor stories, I prefer facts.
