Ive thought Allan wake is the ground breaking?

RedDevils4902d ago

Alan Wake Ground breaking lol

ATi_Elite4903d ago

How about some details or screen shots or video so WE THE GAMERS can decide just how AAA or groundbreaking it is!

Cause i'm sure every Dev thinks they have some ground breaking game in development.

more hype than substance right now so i'm not excited.

hassi944902d ago

It's not like they're shouting at everyone telling them how great their game is.

They have to attract good developers by the job listings, so they write groundbreaking etc. They aren't ready to show the game clearly, they still need developers...

Titanz4903d ago

Doubtful, though you never know.

Kur04903d ago

Probably a Kinect game =/

LightofDarkness4903d ago

Please take back Max Payne. We'll give you gold!

t0mmyb0y4903d ago

Remedy was on fire for a while back in the day. Max Payne 1 bedded in my head

BillytheAlien4903d ago

I just can't believe their actually think MP3 looks brillaint.

I think in my opinion they have no choice to say that about it. I mean 1) it's a rockstar game so they can't "diss" them without any backlash and 2) well it's not like their opinion matters, at the end of the day it would just cause a fuss around the internet.

KMCROC544903d ago

Think thier response was probly in reference to what Max Payne looked like when they (Remedy)first created Max Payne 1 & 2.

morganfell4902d ago

You haven;t played Max Payne. I would guess they have been treated to that opportunity. It's called waiting until you actually know what you are talking about before going on the attack.

To be fair, I have said before that we do see this situation too often. The publisher or developer is risk averse when it comes to a new IP. So they look around for some name recognition into which they can shoehorn their new product. Oh, Syndicate for example?

But remember, this is Rockstar and risk averse is not something they happen to be.

Chitown712914902d ago

But I think Max Payne 3 looks pretty good. No, its not the setting were used to, but still, its Max Payne on current consoles. The gameplay from what I've seen has kept the original in its heart, which is what I care about. Whereas DMC on the other hand, the developers have just completely said f*ck the original fan base, were doing what we want. Give em a chance guys....

FlashXIII4903d ago

Alan Wake kinect adventures? I sure hope not but wouldn't surprise me.

SKUD4902d ago

Count on it. Now with more in-game ads. Enjoy!

I hope it will deliver.. we deserve a good Max Payne remake

HansyJ209d ago

We deserve nothing, but the legacy of Max pain deserves it

Cacabunga209d ago

Max Payne fans deserve a good remake. Maybe that is more clear

The_Blue209d ago

' but the legacy of Max pain deserves it"
The Max Payne legacy deserves it.

SoloZelot90209d ago

Okay...so something digital deserves it but something real doesn't?

DarXyde209d ago

I'm not much of a Remedy gamer beyond Alan Wake, but I can't say I've ever heard anyone complain about the quality of the product, whether we like the game or not.

CrimsonWing69209d ago

Um, I’d think that should go without saying… but glad they’re committed to making the quality excellent as opposed to, uh, not.

Gamingsince1981209d ago

Yeah it's kinda weird for them to say that and redundant.

DodoDojo208d ago

Its because they know that they lost trust with the GTA trilogy.

CrimsonWing69208d ago (Edited 208d ago )

I don’t think Remedy had anything to do with that. I get you’re referring to a publisher, but you wouldn’t think a developer would be reassuring people about their game when a different developer made a game that dropped the ball that’s under the same publishing umbrella.

Like, why would From Soft have to assure us that they’re game will be be striving for excellence if Namco Bandai is publishing and they’re referring to something like Unknown 9: Awakening?

This is just a weird statement no matter how you spin it, but also good to know.

jambola209d ago

oh.......thanks
"update, won't suck we hope" lol

VersusDMC209d ago

Well rockstar is paying the bills so they have to project confidence so it isn't cancelled.

What I'm wondering is who is going to voice Max since the og actor died or they are using the old VO like MGS3Remake.

Profchaos209d ago

Rockstar has always had a great relationship with remedy this isn't some new fly by night partnership they have worked together for 20 plus years now

VersusDMC209d ago

Max payne 2 was the last time they worked with rockstar in 2003. And it bombed.

Rockstar asked remedy to check out Max Payne 3 for notes but were not really involved.

So having worked on a project 20 years ago doesn't mean they have been working together for 20 plus years.

swedishMeatwad209d ago

Wow, breaking news! Developer aiming for excellent quality!

SoloZelot90209d ago

Considering some new releases that's good to hear. It is better than aiming for diversity and inclusion.

Remedy is leaving Epic in the dark place to self-publish Control 2

Remedy will self-publish Control 2 as part of a new "strategic cooperation agreement" with Annapurna. A press release accompanying the announcement says Annapurna will provide half of Control 2's development budget, and in return gains the rights to adapt Control and Alan Wake for film and television.

TheNamelessOne293d ago

Devs backing EPIC didn't last long. I just can't understand why ... /s

porkChop293d ago (Edited 293d ago )

This isn't about the store. Epic published the game on all platforms. They want to self publish because they couldn't recoup Alan Wake 2's budget.

Killer2020UK293d ago

...because Epic chose to restrict its PC release to the Epic store and completely restrict it's physical release until later this year.

Vits293d ago

It’s connected, though. They couldn’t recoup the costs because Epic restricted the places and formats where the game could be released, literally removing the biggest PC distribution channels from the equation. And they also sold the game cheaper than a traditional full release, solely to support their statements at the launch of the Epic Games Store that PC games would be cheaper if it weren’t for Steam.

RaidenBlack293d ago

Dang, nice ... Alan Wake II is an amazing game
Can't wait for Control 2 and Max Payne Remakes

DustMan292d ago

Not sure why your getting down voted because you found Alan Wake 2 amazing. I'm in the same boat as you. Can't wait for Control 2 & the Max Payne remakes. Max Payne 1 & 2 were some of my favorite pc games from my early teens lol.

RaidenBlack292d ago

Coz N4G logic.
You cant praise a game if its got no physical release, not releasing on PS etc

isarai293d ago

Maybe this time we'll actually get a day 1 physical release

JEECE293d ago

And hopefully Steam/GOG options on PC.

I didn't know that a game console, which will be released 7 years after the PS4, will "have much more detail in the game worlds than before"!!!!!!!

Modern journalism at its best.

TheKingKratos2036d ago

What if i told you ...(just try to stay calm because i am about to drop a bomb on you)

that ps5 will have better graphics than ps4 ... i swear i am not lying

Fist4achin2036d ago

Speculation!

Absolutely hilarious...

Neonridr2036d ago

I'd say you have zero facts to back up such a ridiculous claim. Sounds like witchcraft to me.

SolidGamerX2036d ago (Edited 2036d ago )

This cant be real!

Smokehouse2035d ago

I heard the same thing. I have a friend who has a third cousin that works for Sony. It’s a reliable source, big facts.

rainslacker2035d ago

Pfft. You're not a dev, what would you know?

Journalism is absolute garbage. Very few journalists who aren't despicable and clueless.

medman2035d ago (Edited 2035d ago )

Raziology, with all proper respect.....your information sucks. I have it on very good authority that the PS5 will have much more power than the ps4, but the detail will remain about the same. Film at 11.

Skuletor2036d ago

Are Gamingbolt's journalists freelancing for Gamesradar now?

JEECE2036d ago

I hope Remedy can last that long. They have to be one of the most underrated devs. They don't quite have the same 3rd person magic as some of Sony's first party, but they're a few steps away.

SethBrundlefly2036d ago

Well played Gamesradar. Well played.

Interloper2036d ago

What if I told you graphics < innovation.
