Alan Wake info promises rubbished

Moderators on the official Alan Wake forums have clarified that they have no idea when the media "blackout" on the title will end.

So much for the initial promise the blackout "won't continue for too much longer", which sent the Internet bananas earlier.

Because every AMAZING PS3 title shown in 2005 is already gracing your precious system huh?

4.5 - Wasn't aware those were the only 2 games shown.
& again, Uncharted is Kameo with real people. Bright & colorful. 1 site gave it best looking & it won how many other best graphic awards? aawwwww. Since you have the right to rave about everything on your PS3 like it's the 2nd coming, why don't others have the right to enjoy what they are looking forward too? If it was a PS3 exclusive it would be the end all be all.

4.6 - At least...
The games that were shown for the PS3 ages ago release news now and then. This one is on the total dark.

Also.. this was a tech demo. The PS3 ones had different presentations.

Anyways... I think the 360 owners have enough games. They can live without this one for a while.

4.8 - They can praise all they want.
Did I say it didn't look good? No. It does look good, just not as good as you try to make it out to be. There hasn't been a single game released yet that is mind blowing. Everything that comes out on the PS3 is the greatest ever until another game comes out. The stuff isn't that damn great period. I see Sony only fans saying Lost Odyssey looks like a PS2 game but Folklore looks amazing. Please. Quit over blowing every damn thing. Uncharted looks good. It's not earth shattering. & just as you stated on Wageslave's bogus article about game scores, it's just opinions anyways right? (For above) It's an article stating a previous article was false. It's not claiming Alan Wake is going to be the greatest thing in history. People are interested in the title & thought maybe they were going to get some new info. Terrible isn't it?

Good thing they came out and squashed it before the hype got too big. I want to see more on Alan Wake like everyone else but I understand them not trying to spoil too much and keep the game fresh and exciting when it hits.

But on the other hand people want to see progress of some kind to keep themselves excited about the title, they are going to have to show something sometime soon.

6 - I for one
hope they continue the media black out. I like how Microsoft isn't saying much about their software or even showing things. Timing is everything and they are doing a good job of keeping people in suspence. To many fanboys are riding on exclusives that haven't showed up and performed yet. Really glad this game is not in that category. Microsoft wants to hype its games we all know that, and at the rate of critical, and game sales success. They know they have to deliver. Can't wait to hear more when the time is right...

What if you weren't an abide follower of the industry, you may look at what MS is currently purposing (not to much) and base your judgment on that. To convince yourself that they are keeping quite on things is just giving yourself false hope. You can only go on what is already confirmed.

Any this is off topic. I want Alan Wake info!

odd that they showed Gears of War 2 at GDC of all places and in 2+ years haven't shown nothing about Alan Wake.

my hype for this game has died since the 2006 trailer. hopefully all this blackout time did the game some good.

7 - Plan to buy a ps3 and a 360 this year but
I used to come on this site when it first started just to talk about games but all that I heard was flame war after flame about who has the better console.

I came back because I thought it would calm down a little
but I was wrong, after the ps3 has no games comments, and xbox 360 is dead comments, and so on I've had enough and decided it's time to take my business elsewhere.

How boring would it be if everyone was
- patting each others back
- giving one another flowers
- giving out bubbles for just saying "Hi"
- holding each others hands

I like these flamewars, it's interesting and fun to read. There's always someone making ridiculous comments and you just laugh.
