What do you think?

Seems like a "Alone In The Dark" rip off

Seems like a "Alone In The Dark" rip off

True, though there hasn't been an Alone in the Dark games since like 1996. So, why not.

...and no 2001 and 2008 don't count.

Alan Wake is reminding me of Duke Nukem Forever...lol.

Agreed, it sort of attained quasi-vaporware status for a while. Though it's now set to come out in May...so yay.

When I first heard of Alan Wake, I thought it was going to be a Quantic Dreams (Indigo Prophecy / Heavy Rain / Omikron) ripoff, but...meh, doesn't look horrible, just...how many years in production purgatory to develop an Alone in the dark clone?

 

[Rasta 18]

That's a big Yea!

All this talk about an AITD clone, why isn't anyone getting their knickers in a twist over Darksiders, or Bayonetta, or Dante's Inferno and already going "OH MY GOD IT'S A ZELDA/GOD OF WAR/DEVIL MAY CRY CLONE BURN IT WITH FIRE"?

Also, a big yes, but not until Microsoft caves in and lets Remedy publish the beast on the PC.

Was going to get until until it became an XBox exclusive

What? I missed that...that sucks!

Yeah, Remedy stated that as of today.

God of War has been cloned so many times that it's almost it's own genre. Kind of like GTA.

Bayonetta is from the same cloth as Devil May Cry so no foul there.

 

[Jarrod_38]

Exclusive or not I want the game. I've been waiting for this game since like 2005.
