PC - Alan Wake - GDC Europe: Remedy's Myllyrinne Makes Plans For Alan Wake Remedy's goal is "entertaining the largest possible audience with the best games", and in a GDC Europe keynote, director Matias Myllyrinne eloquently described the studio's development values, with pointed criticisms of "me-too multiplayer" and generic naming for today's games.

Outlining the 45-person studio's background, Myllyrinne admitted that the developer takes a long time on many of its games. The first Max Payne took four years, though its sequel only took 18 months. In addition, Xbox 360 title Alan Wake was signed with Microsoft in 2005, and the game will debut in Spring 2010.

But the Espoo, Finland-based developer said that retaining a culture of quality over quantity is one of the reasons for its long development cycles. This is also important for differentiating from generic "me-too" AAA games, which the Remedy executive condemned.

PC - Alan Wake - Alan Wake PC Release 'Up in the Air' Remember when Max Payne creator Remedy suggested that its "psychological action thriller" Alan Wake could hit Xbox 360 first and the promised PC edition would follow? Well, it now appears that a PC release of the game isn't a question of when, but if.

"Other than [the Xbox 360 version] the plans are up in the air and open," lead writer Sam Lake told Edge. When asked if the game was still coming to PC, he said that "once we're done with the 360 version we'll evaluate the situation and see what makes sense."

PC - Alan Wake - Remedy: Alan Wake is only the first season It looks like we'll be getting more from Alan Wake's psychological thriller.

When Alan Wake eventually comes out for the Xbox 360 in early-2010 (the PC release is currently up in the air) it looks like it won't be the end of the psychological thriller author's adventures.

It's already known that Remedy Games is targeting an episodic-like structure for Alan Wake, but it wasn't clear that the developer was targeting further entries.

PC - Alan Wake - Remedy answers Alan Wake PC concerns Gamezine: "Remedy Games has attempted to answer concerns about Alan Wake on the PC, though their response is sure to fuel further speculation.

Yesterday we questioned whether Remedy's psychological action thriller Alan Wake would still be coming to PCs after a lengthy silence over this platform's connection to the game.

Now being published by Microsoft Games Studios, many PC gamers were unsure whether the company would hold back the PC release in order to bolster the Xbox 360's exclusive games offering.

Markus of Remedy Games has responded to concerned gamers."

PC - Alan Wake - Alan Wake Levels Structured Like TV Episodes Following the eyes-only demo of Alan Wake, Remedy lead writer Sam Lake explained the game's levels are structured like a television series season. "The story is divided into episodes," Lake told the small group of journalists viewing the extended Microsoft E3 2009 keynote demo. Prior to the beginning of each level the game will showcase a video Lake described as a "Previously On... segment," to remind players of the important story elements from previous episodes and what relates to the next level the player will experience.

"It's not a level based game," Lake told the group. "We have a large game world, but the story guides you. So, there is a logical pathway for the player." Lake also explained that, while Alan Wake will tell one linear story, the game will feature "a lot of exploration" for players interested in "digging deeper" into the back story of the universe.

PC - Alan Wake - Return of Alan Wake Site Prompts Hint of E3 Appearance from Remedy Brightfalls.net, an Alan Wake fan news site officially sanctioned (and hosted) by developer Remedy, has been out of commission for all of 2009. The site has just popped back up, leading one conspiracy-minded Alan Wake forum poster, "shorty," to conjecture that the site is back up in anticipation of some Alan Wake news. Specifically, "that Alan Wake will be shown at E3 on Monday!"

The theories of one guy on a forum may not be enough to base a rumor on, but the following post makes Joystiq think something really may be happening. Remedy staffer and forum administrator JoukoRMD responded to that post with "Well, maybe (brightfalls.net site lead) ADM has that feeling too, and thus brought back brightfalls.net," ending with a ;) emoticon.

PC - Alan Wake - Alan Wake level editor for modding community Gamezine: Some new info on the mysterious Alan Wake has surfaced on the internet, including the possibility of a level editor released with the game.

We were hoping for more Alan Wake information to be leaked out of GDC '09. For we got God of War III and Uncharted 2 gameplay footage, so why not Alan Wake? Remedy Games and Microsoft must have been much more strict.

Still, we know you're eager to hear more about the psychological action thriller.

PC - Alan Wake - Alan Wake Insights from GDC GameSpy writes: "It's been around five years since development started on Remedy Entertainment's psychological action thriller, Alan Wake. Microsoft is still on board to publish the game, but the project has been shrouded in secrecy so much so that fans of the developers are getting a little restless. The Game Developers Conference last week in San Francisco turned up some new information on the game however, via a Norwegian-to-English translated interview by videogame site gamer.no."
