No Alan Wake In 2008

A Microsoft Spokesperson has told TVG that Microsoft's Gamers Day (soon to start in San Francisco) is showcasing all of the company's major game releases for 2008, strongly suggesting that triple A title Alan Wake (which isn't on show at the event) will quietly slip into the 2009 release window that gamers all probably knew but hoped wouldn't happen.

Billed as a free roaming, psychological thriller that takes place across six square miles of the town Bright Falls, Alan Wake was originally announced at E3 2005 and subsequently revealed as an Xbox 360/PC exclusive at E3 2006. Since then everything has gone extremely quiet, not even a new trailer in the subsequent years.

[Montrealien]

Allan Wake Forever?

To bad, I am looking forward to this one. Eh well, not like I have good games to play till then. ;D

[SL1M DADDY]

Sad too, I was really looking forward to this title.

[kevoncox]

This game is never coming out. They will have to re-write the graphics engine because it's just average right now.

[Leathersoup]

I've got my fingers crossed that it comes out in early 2009. ;)

Well when ever it comes out I'll be getting it. If Max Payne is anything to go by these people know how to work with game mechanics.

[DethWish]

Thought I'd write the same thing then saw your comment.. :/
DAMN YOU!

[chaosatom333]

see what i mean.

[marinelife9]

Alone in the Dark looks really good you can enjoy that until Alan Wake finally comes out.

[CrashSharc]

I'd like to see people complain about sony showing KZ2 @ E3 05 and delaying it till Feb next year, in light of this from MS. I'm not saying any company sucks, It's just that I hate hearing the whiney people who can't bear delays. Good things take time, deal with it... Be it PS3 or 360.

[shanbcn]

While Alan Wake doesn't even have release month yet.

[Montrealien]

You tell them fanbot! Put a mark on your wall of victory! And be proud, you clearly don`t have much to be proud of irl.

[Greysturm]

Just owning the 360 in every department in 2008 and unless e3 proves me wrong 2009 as well.

[JasonPC360PS3Wii]

We still have 6 more for 08, 3 more than you :)

[White-Sharingan]

lol @ Jason counting games like Viva Pi~ata and Harry Potter games

EDI: WAIT! I THOUGHT 360 GAMES COULDNT GET DELAYS?!? and here Xbots have been telling me its only the PS3

what a shame

[Sir Ken Kutaragi]

;-D

So it's just 'GTA4:DLC' and 'Cartoons of War 2' WOW!!! ;-D

[kid from brooklyn]

2008
MGS4, Little Big Planet, R2, Socom

-These four games dump on anything Microsoft is putting out so how bout you shut your biased mouth

[Montrealien]

Let me just add these titles to the games I am looking forward to play in 2008

Gears of War 2
BK : Nuts and Bolts
Resistance 2
MGS 4
Socom
Too Human
WotLK (maybe in 08)
Ninja Gaiden 2

and a bunch more that I am surely missing...

2008 is not Sony`s year! It`s My year! woot I win!

[t-0_ot-]

@White-Sharingan - Actually, Alan Wake hasn't had a set release date, yet. KillZone 2 did and then got delayed..

There is a difference between "Delayed" and "Moved Back."

[Homicide]

HAHAHAHAHa! The 2008 exclusive list for the 360 has become more sh1tty. Dumb bots just got owned.

[Skaterboy Tell Em]

Ok moron since killzone 2 had a release date can you tell us what it was? Do you have a link to back up your idiotic statement? didnt think so dumbass, killzone never had a concrete release date so saying it got delayed is just foolish. Now go crawl back into your little hole moron.

[Montrealien]

Since I can play all these amazing games, I declare victory for all the True Gamers over all the fanboys on the planete!

[Pain]

or just Jump out and hope u can swim.

lolAlan tech demo good luck on that one.

[chaosatom333]

hahahha.

[White-Sharingan]

@t-0_ot- whats the difference between having a set month of release than having a set year for release?

the game was set for 2008, saying its for 2009 automatically makes it a delayed game

just like Too Human (2007) and Halo 3 (release day and date with the PS3, lmao!) :\

[BIoodmask]

by the trailer and physics engine that was shown a while back. I had a feeling that Alan Wake wouldn't be released in '08 anyways bc Remedy/Microsoft never mentioned a release date.

[decapitator]

Yeah I agree but then makes you wonder why it still isn't coming out after been announced a while back. Is been over 2 years since we have heard anything about the game.

If the 360 version is not ready, they should at least release the PC version. I really wanna play this game already.

[kevoncox]

It's a thriller, you can't really give out too much info. see RE

[mirroredderorrim]

I will always wait for this one. I can't wait to see how this will stack against SH5 or even SH2 ( my personal fav)

[jkhan]

Bummer :(
I was really hoping this game will release in 2008. I mean apart from NG2, Fable2 and Gears 2, microsoft doesn't have any good exclusives:(

[green]

I am so sad.Well we will just have to make do with what we are going to get.NG2,Too Human,Banjo3,Gears 2,Fable 2,Halo Wars and Infinite Undiscovery.

Not looking to bad but Alan wake would have been a great addition.

EDIT:this should be a lesson to both Sony and Microsoft.Dont show games until they are ready.

[AngryXbot]

The author said "triple A Alan Wake" as if it is already somehow confirmed that a game of which we have only seen a few pics of, is somehow triple A.

Not even confirmed to be Single A. Not even confirmed B. Not even confirmed C. Its trash until proven otherwise. And Alan Wake is not an exception. Trash until proven otherwise.

[le killer]

man you are an idiot, and have no life! just crawl back under your rock. everything this year from sony is supposedly AAA... i thought 08 was sonys year?

[Shadow Flare]

That's why ps3's been outselling 360 every week of this year le idiot

[AngryXbot]

Their line up is unmatched and therefore triple A.

That makes 2008 Sony's year. Cos it certainly isnt MSs year.

So far, the first 5 months, Sony has owned every competition MS and the xbots brought forth. Dont you have any shame or are you just stupid or what.

Blue Ray - HDDVD war
No Blu Ray for 360
Goldeneye 360 shiat
Outsells 360 without pricecut
GTA4 PS3 > GTA4 MS
PS3 outsells GTA4 DLC effect
DMC4 outsells DMC4 360
KZ2 unmatched in next gen gaming
GOW2 dissapoints.
PS3 sales surpass 360 sales in EU
MGS4 bundle
Official PS3 GTA4 bundle
RROD still a problem
Fail oddysey
And of course, how can I forget: ALAN FAKE confirmed 2009 and triple C (aka average). Hahaha.

And the list goes on and on. It certainly isnt 360s year, now is it. And this is just the first 5 months of 2008. By the end of 2008, youre gonna cry cos it hurts so much boy!

[juuken]

Lol, they crack me up every single day.

[le killer]

oh outselling. but not by much ey shadow?! and compared to the last sony consoles...it's not anywhere near as successful!

sony are lucky the 360 died in japan, and europe stuck with the brand. still, you can comfort yourself with 100K more a month sales worldwide. your beloved ps3 mite catch up sometime late in 2009.

@angyxbot "their line-up is unmatched and therefore AAA" you idiot! they're games not yet released! so how do they equate to AAA? when you said so in a post above that. "Not even confirmed to be Single A. Not even confirmed B. Not even confirmed C. Its trash until proven otherwise. And Alan Wake is not an exception. Trash until proven otherwise". so i take it in your demented and sad brain that it only applies to 360 games?? naturally, ps3 games are AAA as soon as they are mentioned.

you moron...and why aint you using one of your other logins like alexM or zimbo or shadow hearts or sammy_mantra??? you really are the saddest loser on the net...just beating shadow fanboy.

[40cal]

Alan Wake and Killzone 2 are good examples. Hell, you could even put RE5 and FFXIII in the mix.

[Bladestar]

I wouldn't compare Kill Zone 2 to Alan Wake... microsoft never indicated that this game was going to be released this year... and kill Zone was shown by Sony a year before it... not to mentioned the how much they showed this game when Gears 1 was going to come out.. that people thought it was going to come out soon after... and that Gears 2 will be release soon.. the same..

[aiphanes]

It still not delayed as much as Alan Wake....Killzone 2 is aready up and running...its not vaporware...and it will come out in 2009....and it will be awesome. The developers just needed time...and money and they got both.....and its good that gears 2 comes out before killzone 2...because we all know Killzone 2 will look and hopefully play better than Gears 2.

[Mcrmarcher]

Fanboys are going to love this, i dare not step foot in the open zone. Its a shame to it looked realy good, and the xbox needs some great games this year but a delay is not all bad it only gives them more time to improve the gameplay not to mention thoses great graphics.

[thor]

Yeah to be honest, we should all get used to the fact that games get delayed, on both consoles. I don't think Alan Wake has been getting that much hype though, has it?

[Antan]

I think its only "certain" 360 supporters who have been hyping it, certainly not read any online previews or sneak peak articles for a long time. We know pretty much nothing about it to be honest so its a bit daft trying to claim it as the second coming of christ. This applies to any game of course when we know pretty much nothing about them. As long as its a good game people will wait.

[LaChance]

thats why you still aint got nothing to play compared to the 360

Gt5 demo for 40 euros ? euh .... what else ?

Were already half way through "Sony's year"

Dont bring up any multiplat game Im talikng about AAA console exclusives.

We can still ride on our 2007 line up while youre busy looking at VGCHARTZ.

LMAO. I hope for you next year aint Sonys year too otherwwise you'll be one sad bored sony fanboy bragging about a 30 000 lead in sales on an entire continent.

On topic : Oh well , looks like the 360 got its own KZ.

Sony fanboys always say delays are PERFECT because that means the devs are gonna make the game even better.Funny how that doesnt apply to 360 games.

[Antan]

"Were already half way through "Sony's year""

Lets be fair about this, Halo3, Mass Effect and Bioshock all came out from August onwards.

[meepmoopmeep]

2+ years and nothing to show in terms of screen shots or any information is a little unsettling.

[Marcello]

Vapor Wake is its new title

[Montrealien]

Allan Wake Forever, much better title ;D

[Imalwaysright]

Alan Sleeping Beauty

[WIIIS1]

Snorezone 2 is a better title cos its taking forever and the gameplay will be boring.

[PSMonster21]

Vaporwake, snorzone 2? You guys are funny, i wish i could be as clever as you.

PATHETIC!

[Marcello]

Jeez dont get yer knickers in a twist PSMonster its only a joke

[TrevorPhillips]

better so they can make the graphics more better and to check for bugs etc

[name]

I always expected it to come out in 2009. A friend of mien is really excited about this one. I'm sure the extra dev time will do the game well.

[thenickel]

Strange how MS has been quite for so long and just last month Shane Kim mentioned a release this year! Oh well it's still not a for sure thing it's not going to make it and I'm sure they will have more secrets even after this show! E3, TGS, ubidays, and xo8 are still upon us so this really isn't bad news other then wanting to see this in motion already!

[liquidsnake]

Alan Sleep, you get it? The delay?

[PSMonster21]

ROFL...

[toughNAME]

but hey maybe we can get some actual info on the game today

[meepmoopmeep]

i agree, i've wanted more info on the story and the character since i first saw the trailer. hopefully we'll get some more goods or by e3 at least.

[decapitator]

Dont get your hopes up. E3 looks like a better place to demo it.

[bootsielon]

Should I now say "DelayBox"? Serves them right.

Just to name a few fanboy names of those that mentioned how only PS3 has delays:

Jenzo, Darkiewonder, PoG, Jason 360, InYourMom, Icewake, Genuine, Zhuk, theMart...

By the way, when is the next generation Xbox coming out? You know, the one that should have come with Blu-ray (or HD-DVD for that matter) but never did. That has been delayed to like... forever. Will it be 2009 or 2010? Because PS3 came out in 2006 with Blu-ray.

"DelayStation" my ass.

Edit:

"We still have 6 more for 08, 3 more than you :)"

6 more games? You don't even know which games are coming out, and as usual you'll use the straw man argument of citing few PS3 exclusive games that you know of, and perhaps even conveniently forget others that you know of. Since you only have a 360, what would you know anyway?

Here's 2008's PS3 exclusives:

GT5 Prologue, Singstar Vol. 1, Resistance 2, Little Big Planet, MotorStorm 2, Metal Gear Solid, SOCOM: Confrontation, The Agency, Haze, Siren, Valkyria Chronicles

I did not even count: Infamous, Eight Days, Tekken 6, White Knight Chronicles, Singstar Vol. 2, which might come this year, nor Haze which might just remain exclusive. Nor Metal Gear Online which is part of MGS4.

On 360 there is:

Too Human, Banjo Kazooie, Ninja Gaiden, Viva Piñata 3, Fable 2, Halo Wars, Gears of War, GTA IV exclusive content, Tales of Vesperia

I'm counting Ninja Gaiden despite the fact that it might be Timed exclusive unless Tecmo wants to waste the fine job they did with the Ninja Gaiden Sigma Engine. I'm also counting GTAIV exclusive content as a game despite the fact that we really don't know anything, and in the end it's just an expansion.

I'm also not counting Arcade games nor anything not yet announced.

It's nine games on 360 versus 11 on PS3, despite the fact that I eliminated potential 2008 games for PS3, and added potentially non-exclusive games or put exclusive content for 360 in good light.

In 2009, things look worse for 360. Assuming all these games are delayed to 2009 (Infamous, Eight Days, Tekken 6, White Knight Chronicles, Singstar Vol. 2), 2009 will be too cruel for 360, because Afrika, War Devil, FFXIII, Eyedentify, Heavy Rain, FFVersusXIII, Killzone 2, GT5 and maybe even God of War 3 and the Getaway 3 will come out; Heavenly Sword 2, Jak and Daxter, and Uncharted 2 are also possibilites. I'm also assuming L.A. Noire might be multiplatform.

What will Xbox 360 have? Alan Wake, Halo Chronicles, Halo 4, Killer Instinct 3, Bioshock 2, Mass Effect 2, Cry on and? More Namco second or third tier timed exclusives? Halo 4 and KI3 haven't even been announced (and who knows if it'll happen), and Bioshock 2 and Mass Effect 2 are likely to end Multiplatform. Microsoft's first and second party studios have almost disappeared, so what's next?

My bet is that Microsoft just wants to sail it slowly from now on and hit profit so they can reboot the Xbox business in 2012 with a not so powerful Xbox 720 (for the time) in order to mimic the success of the Wii.

[Montrealien]

Both sides of the crazy fanboy fights here are so cute and usless. It is slowly starting to make me giggle more then it pisses my off. lol

[Homicide]

I agree boots; those guy are tards. I bet they can't even name 10 exclusives for this year.

[PwnShop]

I dont mind the wait, just show some like gameplay footage or something to keep my interest

[Whoooop]

too bad.

@ above: agree

[name]

Wasn't there a max payne sequal announced? If the next xbox is coming in 2010, then when is that supposed to come out? I'm sure alan wake is coming 2009 so would that mean the next max payne won't come out this gen? Aren't the max payne people working on alan wake?

[eddierivera]

Not to get off subject, but I just am so excited, so many games for both consoles this year. The one I look forward to on the 360 (which I dont have, but will buy soon) is Fable 2.

[Z501]

What does PC/360 exclusive even mean?
I know what it says, but what does it mean.

Meaning ... They made the game for (2)two specific platforms instead of (1)one.
I thought exclusive meant simply, just for one.
I am confused.

EDIT:
Thanks meep.
That makes sense, i thought i was going crazy.

Thanks Bladestar for not sounding anymore biased :-(

(you forgot to add Nintendo, or maybe you did'nt hmmmm)

The way they make it sound.Sounds like GTAIV is a PS3/360 exclusive.
Sounds and looks wierd.

[meepmoopmeep]

1. Excluding or tending to exclude: exclusive barriers.
2. Not allowing something else; incompatible: mutually exclusive conditions.
3. Not divided or shared with others: exclusive publishing rights.
4. Not accompanied by others; single or sole: your exclusive function.
5. Complete; undivided: gained their exclusive attention.

exclusive is suppose to relate to a SOLE entity, so saying PC/360 isn't really exclusive in the definition.

but then, being published soley by MS makes it so.

kinda confusing.

[Bladestar]

It means the game is going to be released and run on Microsoft platforms... which include XP, Vista and XBox 360 and not on any Sony platform.

[Whoooop]

PC/360 Exclusive is MS's own definition of exclusive. The obvious people will tell you that it's Microsoft exclusive and you have to give money to MS because of windows..yada yada.

It's a contradiction. The game will be available on PC and on the 360. People that have the 360 might not have a PC that handles the game and people with gaming PC's might not have an xbox 360.

So the term "PC/360 exclusive" only makes sense to MS and 360 fanatics.

[Bladestar]

What's so confusing about it Whoooop? If microsoft didn't benefit from it would be released on the PC? If the PSP would handle the graphics on the PS3... wouldn't both platforms get the same game? Sony released God of war on the PSP and the PS3... does that means GOW is not exclusive? It's a unique situation because usually companies don't have two platforms that share so many similarities in terms of development tools and hardware... Why shouldn't microsoft help Windows by bringing some of the xbox 360 games there? and the other way around? They purposely create both platforms to be very similar in terms of API to do just that...
Why is Gears 1 not available for linux or MAC?
Why is so hard to Sony fanatics to understand or accept that Windows is a microsoft platform... just like the PSP is to Sony and the DS is to nintendo? simply because it makes them feel better that they are not supporting the xbox 360 (though the Money made on windows, game ends up on the same bank account as the money made on the xbox 360)..

but... but... microsoft does not collect royalties games published on the PC... lies... and this should be obvious.... games exclusive to the xbox 360 like gears, mass effect are published by microsoft and those that are not microsoft holds exclusibity which means they get royalties for each copy sold on the PC... so if you get Gears 1 on the PC microsoft gets a % of that.

also, don't forget that Microsoft does not pay for your PC hardware.. they do not subsidize the hardware cost as they initially had to do with the Xbox 360... which means they benefit more if you buy their games even if you don't buy the hardware...

it also benefits do to anti-xbox mindset of meny people... that would not buy an xbox 360 no matter what.. and therefore no game... why not release it on the PC so these ignorants can buy the game which endup on microsoft bank?

[THWIP]

The PSP has had NUMEROUS "exclusives" end up on the PS2....and SOON we'll see Echochrome (another "exclusive") on both PSP and PS3. They're both Sony platforms, and Sony makes money no matter which version sells.

How is that any different from MS calling games that will ONLY be available for their Games for Windows or 360 platforms, "exclusive"? Let me help...IT ISN'T.

[Meus Renaissance]

New screenshots/trailer is needed. It's one thing delaying a game but you should feed the interest by releasing something

[Cpt Longcock]

I bet my left ball that even God of War 3 will be released before Alan Wake

[THE TERMINATOR]

Alan Wait

[Montrealien]

hehe, not bad.

[Drekken]

Starcraft: Ghost.

[mirroredderorrim]

At least Blizzard comfirmed that SC: Ghost isn't vaporware.. not yet anyway.

[xtreampro]

i dont care about delays be it a game being delayed on xbox or PS3 i dont care, but to tell you the truth this game is going to show truely truely what the Xbox can do and well thats baisicly it, when i saw this game running on a hi end PC it looked realy good but that was on a PC i doubt what i saw is even capable on the xbox360, to tell you the truth i think the PC version is allready finished in development but now the developers are trying so hard to get that same level of quality on the xbox, so far no game on the xbox has made me say WOW but this game will truely show what the box can do, even after 4 years if it looks crap then the 360 is crap

[meepmoopmeep]

but what we've seen so far is only a tech demo. remember, this is an open world and so there's a huge restriction on it already.

i'm more interested in the story line and the character.

[juuken]

And the xbots complain about PS3 delays.
That's what ya'll get for hatin' on the PS3.

[DevilsJoker]

Man this is like one of 2 things i was looking forward to on my 360 this year. Gears 2 and this. Well i guess its just gears 2 this year. Woo.

[vloeistof]

:(

[PimpHandHappy]

this game was shown at E3 2006

and the Playstation around these parts is called the delaystation. Where is Huxley?

and one more point for all the 360 ppl that love the term AAA

how can they call it a AAA game without have a metric score? I know why they can because they must think of AAA like i do. Its about the production more then the score

[angel604]

true it appears as if its a 360 its fine that its delayed, but if its a sony game it gets bashed to high heaven delaystaion this, wait beyond that

and thats why i absolutely hat the term triple a..it gets thrown around to much now that it has no meaning anymore

[jtucker78]

I wonder if this game will get released before Duke Nukem Forever?

[DJ]

=P

[Ali_The_Brit]

LMFAO

the xbox line up for 08 already looked terrible compared to the PS3's but i mean come on one of the top games now gone? u sad losers

[Aclay]

I pretty much already knew Alan Wake wasn't coming out in 2008.

There's been more info and trailers about Killzone 2 and it's coming Februrary 2009, but there's been nothing shown about Alan Wake. Alan Wake is probably at least another year away.

[heyheyhey]

christ all you guys do is wait

Microsoft is always promising insane stuff like 2090p and 460fps and you Xbox fans just swallow their bullsh!t and get lied to

and you have to wait for everything too, look at this- Alan Wake in 09, freaking Delaybox

[n00bPwner]

That was funny! You replaced PS3rd with 360 and exaggerated everything to make bots look dumb for doing it to you! I get it! But wait, it really is true for you guys... awwwwwwwww.

:(

[thehitman]

Well.... maybe too human will by 360 gamers some time until gears comes out.

[JadedWriter]

This game is slipping into vaporware territory.

[2 cents]

Oh no this is poo! I was looking forward to this title! Now there really is nothing to get me excited for my 360. Gears1 was ok but for me was just another shooter and i doubt Gears2 will be any different. NG2 does not appeal to me, and Too Human is really not my type. Maybe Splinter Cell will spark some interest but i`ve never been crazy for the series. I`m a huge racing games fan but the x360 is lacking racing games this year. Seriously i can`t see anything big for my x360 gaming this year. Never mind, as long as i got the ps3 i don`t need to worry.

[PimpHandHappy]

should be the new 360 slogan

[Tmac]

The engine is seeming a little out dated. I hope they realize some new footage at least to a keep a gradual anticipation level.

[wass007]

wow not cross Alen Wake off and whats there left in the 2008 lineup for 3fixme :s

[Figboy]

Fable 2, Too Humam and Alan Wake are the only 360 games that interest me this year.

i may check out Ninja Gaiden 2, but as a rental, as the first one pissed me the f*ck off (i play games to have FUN, not give myself a stroke).

i'm not a Gears of War fan, so Gears 2 doesn't excite me like it does the true fans of the series (i'll still keep my eyes on it, of course, i'm just not sure i'll pick it up day one, if at all).

Banjo...i never played the N64 titles, so i'm not sure about this one. it LOOKS nice, so i'm keeping an eye out for it, but i just don't know.

since this is a 360 story, i'm not going to list the PS3 titles that have my attention this year, but needless to say, it's more than just Fable 2 and Too Human.

i was really, REALLY hoping Alan Wake would hit this year, as it sounds AWESOME. just the type of game i'm looking forward to. it's in that same category to me as LA Noire and Heavy Rain, which ALSO aren't hitting until 2009, sadly.

i'm just really in the mood for a good adventure/mystery game, and sadly, the three that i'm most excited about don't hit for another year. lol.

[beavis4play]

which game comes out first: huxley or alan wake? i'm interested to see something from each one.

[WIIIS1]

I suspect this is a deliberate strategy. Seeing how weak the line up of the competition is for this year, it makes sense not to overkill by releasing one too many of their AAA titles this year.

[sleepbox]

And my most-anticipated game slips again. :(

[1stKnighT]

This year is already stacked with steller games. No need to try to rush this game. Take your time!

[n00bPwner]

This sucks, but there are already too many great games on 360 this year, so it's not a big deal.

I'd be more pissed-off if I only owned a PS3 and only had maybe one or two games worth playing all year.

Seriously, reading all your droid comments is just embarrassing. Your NUMBER ONE PS3 "savior" game (Greyzone 2, made by a crap developer, no less) got delayed yet again. Believe it or not, that's different than Alan Wake getting delayed. Jesus Christ, you fanboys are stupid.

[LevDog]

WOW.. I guess you havent looked at the release list for PS3.. Saying we have only 1 game.. Hmm Haze (not saying it will be huge).. MGS4/MGO thats enough to make most gamers happy for a year.. SOCOM (my personal fave).. LBP prolly the most innovative and creative game that might come out.. Motostorm... I mean even SingStar..

Come on bro use your head a lil bit

[THWIP]

...that Alan Wake could end up being a launch title for the XBOX 3? I was thinking about this the other day: if MS had their next console ready to launch by late 2011, they could have one HELL of a launch lineup.

-Alan Wake
-Gears 3
-Fable 3
-Mass Effect 3
-Too Human 2 (no way SK gets a sequel out this gen :o )
-Kameo 2
-Project Offset (I'm thinking Intel will end up making it a PC "exclusive", to push their chips, with a console port later)
-Forza 3
-Halo (something...you know it's not going away)

Anyway, I didn't expect Alan Wake this year...since Remedy has ALWAYS said "when it's done"...so I'd actually be happy with a longer delay, and on a better console.

[wow4u]

No. Not. A. Chance.

Thats three years FFS from now, and only 6 years after Xbox 360 launched (late 2005). Every console generation has averaged between 8-11 years.

There wont be a Xbox 720 in 2011 - more like 2013-15.

[THWIP]

The original XBOX came out in 2001...just 4 years prior to the 360. :o

[Ri0tSquad]

Now no Sony or Microsoft fanboy can bash each other's system because they both have 2 big games not being released in 2008. And you know you were expecting this game this year too.

[Boink]

alan wake, and huxley.

sigh, really looking forward to both:(

[Kratos_1986]

alan dream of me

[LevDog]

Wheres the Delaystation comments now... Stupid 360 fans forget that Alot of High profile games get delayed.. doesnt matter what Console.. Games get delayed all the time.. HAHAHA.. So now take ALan wake is off the 08 list..

lets check the line up..
1. GeoW2
2. Banjo Kazooie

Watch out Halo 3 a bear with a chicken on his back is on your coat tails..

PATHETIC

"A Microsoft Spokesperson has told TVG that Microsoft's Gamers Day (soon to start in San Francisco) is showcasing all of the company's major game releases for 2008, strongly suggesting that triple A title Alan Wake (which isn't on show at the event) will quietly slip into the 2009 release window that we all probably knew but hoped wouldn't happen."

False. No one told TVG that MS was showcasing "all of the company's major game releases for 2008".

Clearly false.

Halo Wars is already in Beta, and has long been solidly slated for 2008.

They didnt announced the "full" line up, or "all of the releases for 2008" because they havent talked about Halo Wars (at the very least).

Obviously false.

Im not saying Alan Wake *wont* be in 2009, but the statement is clearly inaccurate.

lmao. Youre one hella of a sad fanboy.

Nobody is hiding , Nobodys responding to your comment simply because we dont give a damn about you have to say.

Looks like your imagination is going wild lol

MS needs a killer app for 2009. That's for sure. Rememdy isn't going to let anyone down.

[sleepbox]

The open zone makes me laugh because I can always predict what the first post will say.

[Big Jim]

Alan Wake will never be released.

[ScottEFresh]

ALAN FAKE delayed AGAIN....JUMP IN AND WAIT....

[Morgue]

Now maybe all the fanboys can compare this game to Killzone 2 since both are delayed to til 2009.

[Alcohog]

Its in purgatory with Duke Nukem Forever.

[avacadosnorkel]

It's just automatically a triple A title ?

Why? Because there is 3 A's in the title?

[Iron Man 2]
