Games Radar has a new Alan Wake preview up which doesn’t really cover much new information but it does offer 2 brand new screenshots!
Your 360 is once again engaging in psychological warfare with you - but on a whole new level. It’s a step beyond the “boo” mentality of Doom, and it’s more advanced even than F.E.A.R.’s jarring peaks and endless troughs. In Alan Wake, the Xbox 360, under Remedy’s orders, is letting you - here’s the good bit - scare yourself.
The full preview can be read here and the screenshots can be found in the Media Archive or below:

This is a bit old at the moment as we missed it when it was published on January 9th, 2007, but Gamasutra focused their weekly column “Media Consumption” on Petri Järvilehto; Creative Director on Alan Wake. Media Consumption is a column that looks at the media and art diets of our favourite industry personalities.
It’s a good little insight into Petri’s favourite music, movies, books and games and also has a little bit about Alan Wake in it.
The game is set for release on PC and Xbox 360, though is currently without a date. Järvilehto notes that the game is “coming together well”, adding that he feels Alan Wake is “an exciting project to work with, both technology as well as concept and story-wise”.
The game was demonstrated at the Intel Development Forum at X06 in Barcelona back in September. “Everyone seemed to like the direction where we are heading, and even though we’re not really talking about the game right now, I’m starting to get anxious to show all of the new stuff that we have up and running,” Järvilehto comments.
We took some time to ask Helsinki, Finland-headquartered Järvilehto about the ill culinary behaviour going on in his media diet right now.
Check out the whole thing here.
