Alan Wake 2 announcement incoming ?

Remedy has stated they have big plans for 2013

Could it be the much anticipated announcement of Alan Wake 2 ? I hope so.

Signs point to it though, Remedy has stated before on their website that they are working on a next gen title. Let's hope they bring it to both PC and Xbox on the same date this time though. A PS4 version would be great too.

What would you want from an Alan Wake sequel ?

Awesome, hopefully it will come to pc same time as the 360 version.

Alan Wake. Meh. clyde46

Yeah I hope so too. But the situation could also be like this:

MS announces their new Xbox at E3 and shows off Alan Wake 2 as exclusive.

I need to play AM, but I would like to see the series continue. Heil68

If the end of American Nightmare is anything to go by, there will be a sequel.

edit: what I mean is: American Nightmare has a pretty open ending

They already improved the mechanics a bit in AN. Also giving you the ability to sprint longer than 4 seconds without Alan getting a heartattack. I won't ask much of AW2. Just make it like the first one. That'll make me happy.freedomfreak

Same here. Alan Wake was an amazing game to me. Only complained I had was that there should be more variety in enemies and weapons.

American Nightmare fixed exactly that. But unfortunately gave less variety in environments:P

I loved Alan Wake and American Nightmare a lot. They both have plenty of that Remedy charm I know and love from Max Payne!

The only issues I had with them was how they'd get somewhat repetitive after a while, there simply wasn't enough enemy and weapon variety, the combat started feeling overly familiar too fast, there was nothing to shake things up. If they can fix that, I strongly welcome the sequel!

About AN, while there was a larger weapon selection, the guns still all felt too similiar to each other, none had some distinct and memorable feel, sadly...

But at least they gave us some more enemy variety, that is true. As for enviroments recycling, I didn't have many problems with that, but only because we're talking about a downloadable game. Also, I think the level design was rather smart, the backtracking very rarely felt tedious, at least for me...

Alan Wake was a fantastic game imo. AN improved the gameplay, but was still a bit of a disapointment to me. I guess I didn't realy like the setting and the structure of the game. But a new Alan Wake game on next gen hardware would be fantastic news. I wonder what we will see in terms of new light effects. Bring on the firework :D!

Cool if true, though the first title sold terribly. If it does come then it will be a 720 game most likely.

I really hope it's a next gen game. Launch tittle for Xbox 3 and PS4 would be amazing!

Have you forgotten about the nail gun (or whatever it's called)? Pew-pew-pew-pew-pew-pew. Man that was a sweet gun :D!Sushiglutton

We'll get the PC version for sure, and probably even the PS3 version...

Ah, I was under the impression that it sold terribly. 2 million is good in real life, though on SW it's considered a flop.

First was awesome. Hopefully they do eventually make a second.

It was one of the few games that had great atmosphere, when you are in that cabin and the shadow goes across, that really freaked me out. But the game kind of lost the ball later on, and the last boss was a gust of wind. No joke.

Making it a next gen title would be nice but I would like to see it released for the PC at the same time.

True. Here's to hoping they take all the good from Alan Wake combined with the improvements of AN. It's a day 1 regardless though :Pfreedomfreak

Absolutely ! Day one buy. I want to see the story continue.

If it's timed exclusive again then I will have to buy the Xbox and PC version both again :P

I think some tweaked mechanics would be great. I loved American Nightmares twilight zone esc ideas but it just kept repeating. Also Make the story a bit clearer. American nightmare left me wanting a bit more.Animal-Mother

The levels changed a bit each time you played them. And so did the characters and situations you encountered.

They didn't recycle them, but they could have done more with them imo.

Rocker6

Yeah, its only a small complaint I have about AN. Also there is the confusing story.

[spoiler] Did AN even take place or was it all a dream from Barry? [/spoiler]

Also I really loved the nail gun and crossbow. And some really powerful weapons you got near the end.

Alan Wake was a fantastic game imo. AN improved the gameplay, but was still a bit of a disapointment to me. I guess I didn't realy like the setting and the structure of the game.

Sushiglutton

Yes Alan Wakes lighting was amazing. Really helped to set its atmosphere (light vs dark).

I can't wait to see what they will deliver on next gen consoles and PC:shock:

Don't forget about the crossbow:evil: or did you not find it ?:P

I really hope MS is not publishing this one. So PC gamers get to enjoy it day one, and a PS4 version would be cool too.

But Remedy is not a big team so a PS4 version is doubtful.

Also PC got American Nightmare rather quick after the 360 version... From the 6 or so games Remedy has made only one took a long while to get to PC. All of Remedies games have been released on PC. Shadowmoses is speaking nonsense again. What a surprise.

Did anybody buy Alan Wake 1?nini200

Great news if it's true. Hopefully MS will do a better job of marketing the second one. Most none gamers never heard of the first one, and releasing it on the same day as RDR was rather stupid.

I think M$ will try to get this as a timed-exclusive for the 720. Badosh

I got it, beat it twice and want a sequel.

Double that sub-HD number, and you got yourself a PC version, which is rather nice to look at! ;)

Still need to finish it... my backlog pains me
