Alan Wake to be shown at GDC 2008?

Posted by ADM on 26/01/08

Well according to Robbie Bach, President of Entertainment & Devices Division at Microsoft it is.

In a recent interview by Sith Gamer Robbie said this:

SG: One thing you talked about are the games- so far I think the 2008 year seems to be lacking. Especially when put up against the PS3 or Wii.
RB: Well were saving a lot of stuff for GDC, which is where we plan on showing off some big titles such as Halo Wars and Alan Wake.

Now I don’t know how accountable a site like Sith Gamer is, especially for a web blog hosted at wordpress.com, so take this with grain of salt for the time being. Also GDC is the Game Developer’s Conference held on the 18th to 22nd February this year.

“Anyone notice Amazon is taking pre-orders for the XBox360 version and has a release date of 10-1-2008. Do we dare hope!”

Yeah we’ve always said never to trust any other site other than Alanwake.com and brightfalls.net. Amazon have always put “fake” release dates down to generate pre-orders. You’ll find that date continue to be postponed. Remedy have never released a set date, it’s always been “When it’s Done”.

Microsoft keeps dropping hints that they intend it to be a 2008 title, Remedy is silent on the matter. Though they have both stated that the game will be released when it is ready, they’re not trying to push it out the door, given the experimental genre - they really want to get it right the first time and not have to spend countless patches or sequels to make the game how it is intended.
