Alan Wake will return 'when the time is right'

I love Alan Wake, I just got to play it today, love everything of it! Cn't wait to finish and write my own review!

Alan Wake was the one game that would have made me want the Xbox One. Without that my decision becomes much easier.

I wish Remedy would just dump M$ and come back to the PC, they're too awesome to be held back by consoles!

:\

Microsoft: "Ok we need an exclusive that sells. Make Alan Wake 2"

Remedy: "But... we told the fans..."

MS: "No buts. We've already had our marketing guys make a list of all the things that have to be included in the game."

R: "wait, what? they're not gonna tell us how..."

MS: "For example, lets see, oh! here's one:
'Alan must lose his wife somewhere in between the first game and this one because she's ugly and boring, and in the sequel he'll have a hot and scantily clad love interest that will appeal more to our tween demographic.' see? this is genius! "

R: *blank stare*

MS: "come on... you didn't really think it was YOUR decision or anything, right?" *pat on the back* "ok, get to work."

do M$ own Remedy?

Quantum Break could be really good, but the trailer was just poopy. I think the fans would want Alan Wake 2.

I can't tell whether there hasn't been a sequel because of money issues? Or because THEY didn't feel like hey had the right game? Either way I frickin loved the first one and can't wait for a sequel

For you guys on PC Alan Wake and Alan Wake American Nightmare are currtently offered in the weekly humble bundle deal. Go grab it! You pay what you want.

So pc gamers saved the alan wake franchise and now they're making their next game xbox exclusive...what a d*ck move.

Alan Wake's American Nightmare came out only a year ago. It's not like the series has been dormant for years and years. I can be patient for a sequel. Alan Wake is one of my all-time favorite games. Maybe on the next-gen Xbox One we'll get Alan Wake 2. As long as the story is great, the suspense is intense, the characters engaging and the gameplay fun I don't care how long it takes to come up with a new installment....well as long as it doesn't turn into another Duke Nukem Forever of course. lol

I'm sure Quantum Break will be really interesting, it's just a great shame Microsoft is going to make it XONE exclusive. Especially when Alan Wake took just 2 days to recoup costs when eventually released on PC.

It's a shame that this game was overshadowed by RDR.

American Nightmare was Not so Good as 1st game that's where they failed they released sequel too soon.

They should simply make Alan Wake an Xbox exclusive...really though M$ is horribly short on exclusives.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Why does Remedy have to worry about money? I assumed they were at least owned by Microsoft or had exclusivity with them, otherwise it made no sense why they never put wake on the ps3 and why there next game appears to be an xbox exclusive.

And 3 million in sales on a single platform is beyond ridiculously good.

I loved Alan wake because it was an ode to story tellin and while people can rip on the gameplay, you felt theimpact of the revolver you had, and the dodge nature was pretty interesting.

People say is a movie, but its much like heavy rain, in that it being a game really adds a complete experience to the story. I thougt it was phenominal, and if they want to take a minute to make sure tey got all their ducks lined up to make te best sequal imaginable, I am all for it.

And its more of a mini series than a movie to anyone who wants to be a jerk about it;p

@TrueGB American Nightmasre is Garbage compared to 1st game.

My best recent gaming weekend was last fall playing Deadly Premonition, doing a Twin Peaks marathon during breaks, and finishing up with both Alan Wake games. While not perfect, it was very entertaining and interesting to play. I just hope when they release the sequel, it will be released on PC the same day it comes out for consoles.

I think the big problem with this strategy is money. They say money from slow sales of Alan Wake is the driving force behind moving on to a new exclusive game on the Xbox One. How does that make sense? New console = relatively small owner base in the first few years. Meanwhile 360 has 77 million sold = huge owner base. Of the Xbox One owner base how many will actually buy Quantum Break? a smaller number again. Do the simple math on this and its suicide to start a new IP "on a launch console" when your last game sold too slowly for liking. I'm more concerned Remedy may have weakened their financial footing further thereby making the sequel to Alan Wake even less likely. Grrrr!

In case nobody knows, you can pick up Alan Wake and American Nightmare for whatever price you want to pay at humblebundle.com. Obviously it's PC only, but if you can run it, now would be an excellent time to play it.

I wish more games were like this. It really was the little things that I loved. The episodic format was great. I always knew what was going on as I work away from home for two weeks at a time and it was nice that they reminded the player what happened. From the killer sound track to real life people references. I found the story very dismal, but I like subject matter like that. I loved the show 'Twin Peaks" and found this game reminded me of that great show. They made a prequel live action miniseries for this game called "Bright Falls" that used the real life models from the game in that show. The bottom line is that it was refreshing to play this. Heck my wife sat and watched me play as she love Steven King books and this was like a King book.

Played it on PC. American Nightmare too. Great games. Looking forward to more Alan Wake.

I loved Alan Wake, and I hope a 2nd installment but I expect it not to be action oriented like most of today titles

please don't make alan wake 2 Xbox exclusive. i want for at least PC

Alan wake was a good game imo, but I really have no interest in a alan wake 2 at the moment. I would love to see alan wake 2 in 2-3 years.

Quantum Break got me hard knowing that Remedy loves the Live Action / Game. Will get Quantum Break.
