New Alan Wake Cinematic Trailer Released



Alan Wake. Briefly considered vaporware by many people due to a stunning lack of any new information. Well, it looks like it can now be safely removed from the vaporware list that includes the likes of Duke Nukem Forever, the Phantom, etc. The following cinematic trailer should go some way to easing those concerns.



While a definite release date hasn't been announced, the latest news points to a Holiday 2009 awakening for Alan.

And just like that I am interested in a game that I had completely stopped caring about.

Echoing President Fred's statement. I began watching the video with disinterest, but was very pleasantly surprised.

Does anyone else see a Fable 2 logo in the first picture?

Nevermind. I'm going blind in my old age.

Great atmosphere in that trailer. Renewed as one of my most anticipated games. Can't wait to see more.

Gives me a Silent Hill vibe. But not the kind that makes me hate SH.

Microsoft Game Studios?


Why do I remember this as a PS3 exclusive? I must be thinking of something else.

Yeh it's always been a 360/PC title.

Dunno where people got the idea it's vaporware. Just because some people (like RMD in this case) don't show every piece of scenery months or years before release doesn't mean something is vaporware. But yeah, good thing they are finally showing something concrete. Judging from MP1 & 2 and their media releases, we'll probably see a february or march release.

It's the A.D.D. mentality.
