I can't help but laugh at the BS in this article. Is this some ridiculous attempt at making the casual gamer think they are out to please people and not just rip us off? Giving us what we want? Seriously? As if Alan Wake fans want some over priced DLC 2 years after the first game came out instead of full fledged Alan Wake 2 on a disc. This release is completely pointless to anyone who is a fan of the game. Yeah it might be a little bit of fun here, but don't come on with that BS like you think this is what the audience wants. It did not take 5 year to make this game it took so long because they played around and never got it done. Hilarious how they turn the series into this ripoff direction and at the same time try to act like they are doing us a favor. Then at the end of the day this game will have less emphasis on story which is what MAKES Alan Wake and takes place TWO YEARS later. WTF happened in those 2 years? I don't expect them to even touch on that either.
Remedy not finished with Alan Wake
Company CEO Matias Myllyrinne confirms that studio has "put things into motion" for new entry in franchise; hints that next game to be released digitally.
Alan Wake developer Remedy has more in store for its psychological thriller series beyond next week's Alan Wake's American Nightmare. Speaking with gaming blog Joystiq, Remedy CEO Matias Myllyrinne said plans for a new game in the franchise are already "in motion."
The developer said its main focus presently is finishing Alan Wake's American Nightmare and releasing it later this month, but the company is also looking to its future.
"It's too early to talk about what our next move is, but we've obviously put things into motion," he said. "We're crowd pleasers, we'll do what the audience wants, 'cause usually that's the good business move as well."
Myllyrinne also dropped a hint that the studio's next title will be released digitally, as opposed to on-disc at retail.
"I'm loving the digital [distribution] side and we'll see how that evolves, but just being able to give people quick access to bite-size chunks of gaming is maybe more fun than working for years and years," he said.
The original Alan Wake is due out on the PC on February 16, with American Nightmare following on February 22 on Xbox Live. For more on the latest game in the series, check out GameSpot's most recent preview of American Nightmare.
