PS3 Daily: Where is Alan Wake? Looks like an Xbox 360 exclusive

proArchy - 515 days 17 hours ago

Japan established the Survival Horror genre( Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Siren, etc.) and Japanese gamers are historically more interested in games with a deep story. It seems TGS be the perfect place to show Alan Wake after years of a media blackout? MS has been trying awfully hard to court the japanese gamer if you haven't noticed. It doesn't matter anyways as Remedy has stated it won't show at TGS, which is probably a mistake.

I dunno why people were disagreeing with you proArchy... it seems opinions aren't allowed in the place where people write their opinions.

Perhaps your comment wasn't filled with enough fanboy ranting.

NextGen Exempt - says
" Most likely a timing issue
Personally I would think Microsoft is doing this because they want to release this at the correct time. It wouldn't surprise me if they wanted to release this around the time of Heavy Rain."

MSFT has nothing to do with Alan Wake not being shown, MSFT wants to show it and they have claimed they were going to show it many times and the devs keep saying no. Pay attention.

My point was, not enough is known about Heavy Rain for any competing dev(assuming REM has even been paying attention to HR) to be strategizing releases to compete with a game no one knows anything about lol.

Nice try...

It will be a generic Max Payne ripoff. I really don't care if it comes out or not. It has nothing on Killzone 2, don't kid yourself into thinking that.

Its funny how when you pm'd that same comment to me, you added the fact that my opinion is "moronic", but preceded to remove that from your response after I pointed out the fact that 237 people who have ignored you seem to think that you're moronic.

You obviously cant comprehend what I was trying to convey. I was stating that it would most likely be in the best interest of Microsoft and the Developer to release this game at a suitable time, when Microsoft doesn't have any other titles interfering. I even mentioned that in the reply below but you still cant seem to understand.

In your own words, Nice try.

Its very easy to see the thing that got you going in the first place was the fact that I compared your 360 exclusive to a title that, god forbid, wasn't being made for the 360. Please leave your fanboyism at the door before you decide to post biased nonsense that just proves how idiotic you are.

Good day.

Way to turn what I was saying into a fanboy argument.

All I said was that Microsoft is most likely looking to use this game as an opportunity to boost their console when their lineup is weak. I'm not trying to make this into another console argument.

Its really annoying when people cant read a comment without relating it to some form of fanboyism.

As for your comment, I agree with it. Microsoft could be waiting for the right moment to bring this game out, especially when they're out to steal Sony's thunder. :/

Heavy rain is PS3 exclusive(and first party title).. but from what Iv heard, I think Alan wake is PC/360 project..not exactly 360 exclusive

I believe in them , and I think it will be a good game like max payne(I love that game).. but imo its alil bit strange ,why they didnt show ANYTHING for 3 years!?

even CG killzone trailer become reality after same period.. 3 or 4 years is enough for making a huge game(for devs that have only ONE project)

There are also a lot of errors.
1. The game is still slated for Windows according to the official website.
2. The game is being published by MGS but is not "owned" by them. The Alan Wake website clearly states that Alan Wake is the property of Remedy Entertainment.

dazzalfc - 515 days 18 hours ago

PS3 game gets set back, everyone pokes fun. 360 game gets put back, nobody even blinks.

Im far from a fan of either console, but i find the ignorance from both sets of 'fanboys' or whatever the pleb type term is used today, is frankly both a) hilarious and b) stupid. Neither console is perfect, neither sets of fans should find their choice of console 'perfect'.

Both consoles have sets of games or features that are delayed, simply because it happens. It doesnt mean a system is poor or better, and the fact the PS3 seems to suffer more is mainly due to complexity of the hardware itself, than it being a 'OMFG POS3 iz de worzt console eva!!!1!1!' scenario.

With big budgets, big development teams and an ever increasing need for people to demand perfection, coupled with dificult hardware, titles will get pushed back. If it isnt this title or the Burnout update, its Home or LittleBigPlanet. Its the changing face of gaming. If you dont like it, maybe you should go back to playing in the 16mb era.

I often wonder if people visiting this site do so just to wind people up they've never met, or to actually discuss gaming and have an interest in the industry. Not been on N4G long, but i can already work out which one it is

EDIT - love the way i get disagrees on this. Obviously, we have people in here with more experience and knowledge in the gaming industry than me, which i find suprising

SkyGamer - 515 days 16 hours ago

I think that one of the reasons why people are upset at ps3 titles getting pushed back is because they either have crappy ports and/or few titles so when something does get pushed back, it matters. MGS4 may be a great game but you cannot just survive on one game. You need to have a flow of great games and that is one of the reasons that I think people do get upset. sony has done enough promising and needs to start fullfilling those promises. They need to treat their gamers the respect they deserve and cater to the gamer. Like they say the road to hell is paved on good intentions. sony needs to start getting a stream of good games and not just rely on first and second party. You need third party as well. It takes time to make a game on this gen so you need ALL the help you can get. All of those presumed projects and how long does it take to make? Even then not ALL the games will make it like the ps3 vegas game and getaway. Personally I didn't mind the getaway game and was bummed when it got the axe.

thekingofMA - 515 days 6 hours ago

do you think it's an insult telling him to go play braid?

Braid is an amazing game-now its ranked the highest XBLA game of all time (and on a side note, it's ranked higher than over 90% of ps3 exclusives)

Braid will be remembered for a long long time, and not because of its controversial price

it will be remembered as a captivating experience with a great but strange story and fun platforming and time manipulation

so next time you think you're really smart and clever (an incorrect thought if i may add) and want to tell someone to go play a game as a (terrible, stupid) insult, don't pick Braid because its a fantastic game and one of the best downloadable console games ever (yes, even better than that glitch fest Pain)
