Is the Stream reg entry basically a confirmation or were there cases where an entry appeared, but the game never game out?

Rise of Nations Gold was added to the Steam registry for awhile but hasn't been put on steam yet, which is too bad since it's my favorite RTS of all time.


I bought the Alan Wake collector's Edition day 1 for the 360. I loved it, it was one of my favorite games of 2010. I would buy it again for full price on PC if it was released on Steam. Make it happen Microsoft/Remedy.

But what about the comfy couch?

I look forward to playing this for the first time on my comfy couch in full PC splendor. Hope its true.

From the "'Big Picture Mode' for Steam announced" thread:

Cant wait for Alan Wake to be released now

 

[derFeef]

True ^^
Right in time for my new TV I bought myself for christmas.

 

[Snuggles]

His words resonate from beyond the grave. Imagine that, playing Alan Wake on your couch, on your TV set, with a wireless controller but it's running from your personal computer. We are truly living in the future.

 

[Fou-Lu]

Hope it's not full price. I'd really like to finish the game, my 360 died on me before I beat it.

 

[Vigilant Walrus]

Well, if they release it for Steam I will play it!

My consoles accuse me of chasing a dream. They burst into angry tears, asking if it's because they're getting older. It's true. They're aging more noticeably every day - while I am sitting still. I prefer the comfy stillness here. I am tired of consoles. These devices. I am tired of being caught in the tangle of their life cycles.

 

[Slavik81]

Well, better late than never I suppose.

 

[pottuvoi]

no aa (deferred engine you see)

Game had 4xMSAA on x360 and their foliage rendering depended on it to give good results, so I kind of doubt that PC version would abandon AA. (unless it works on new renderer.)

 

[AzureNightmare]

Xenoblade headed to the US? Alan Wake headed to Steam? There is a God and he does love me!

 

[Son1x]

Great. I was interested in AW back when the PC version was supposed to release too. Then it somehow got cancelled and I never got to play. Looking forward to this.

 

[jim-jam bongs]

Even if there's no AA because it's deferred and DX9, we're PC gamers! I'm sure someone will figure out some way to force it, and if not there's always FXAA.

let's not get out of hand here

 

[jim-jam bongs]

Yeah I don't think CDProjekt make games for dead platforms tbh.

 

[Dog Problems]

I really hope this is true. Despite the hate it gets I enjoyed it.

 

[Snuggles]

Yeah I don't think CDProjekt make games for dead platforms tbh.

Pretty much. They might as well port TW2 to the Dreamcast while they're at it.

 

[Lesiroth]

Pretty much. They might as well port TW2 to the Dreamcast while they're at it.

So what's the deal with CDProjekt and the PS3? I know they're not porting TW2 to the PS3, but did they ever state a reason?

 

[PooBone]

I played the game on 360, and would have preferred to play it there if PC and 360 versions released day and date. That said, this sounds like awesome news for those who aren't like me.

 

[Sent]

Was interested...years ago.

 

[JaseC]

So what's the deal with CDProjekt and the PS3? I know they're not porting TW2 to the PS3, but did they ever state a reason?

Basically, they don't have the manpower to port a game to/develop a game for multiple platforms simultaneously, and downscaling the engine for the X360 is a relatively easier job than rewriting it for the PS3 and its atypical architecture.

Sure we would like to see the game on PlayStation and we'd like to deliver it to those players. But we can't do everything at the same time and it's a little more difficult than the Xbox version for us. Maybe if we have more manpower it would be a little bit easier.

Incidentally, a PS3 version of The Witcher 2 hasn't been ruled out.

 

[Wolf Akela]

Well, this is awesome news for me. I don't really have regrets skipping on a 360 since Alan Wake is the last exclusive I really wanted for the system. Well... aside from Dust: An Elysian Tail but wtf happened to that game? It had an awesome showing and won a lot of funding after winning some summer coding festival.

 

[Guri]

Guys, it's confirmed: http://forum.alanwake.com/showthread.php?t=7525

 

[HotHamWater]

[Buttonbasher]

AW YEAH!

 

[Netrunner2k2]

Bought the CE of Alan Wake at launch, will buy this on Steam at launch. Loved Alan Wake.

I was thinking of playing it again a couple of weeks ago, but now I shall wait.

 

[VivaciousSoul]

I'm scared of how true all leads and rumors are these days. These days I read "Alan Wake coming to Steam?" as "Alan Wake coming to Steam confirmed."

 

[Mr_Zombie]

If this is a true in-game picture, and not a bullshot, than wow. D:

 

[shinnn]

Wow I think this thread moved faster than the American Nightmares one.

And half of posts are not downplaying the game. Looks my impression that GAF is really shitting on X360 nowadays is legitimate. lol

Looks like AW will finally gets the praise that it deserves on gaf

 

[Revoh]

Yessss! Can't wait

 

[faceless007]

The big question: With DX10 or not?
