To be honest it would be nice if Alan Wake was ported to PC if only because it would mean everyone would shut up about it.
Based on the job listings its probably Alan Wake + Kinect which would be interesting although I would like to hope it doesn't delay a potential sequel.

Or just Kinect, since that's also a platform that attracted a lot of new people not interested in traditional Xbox 360 games. But a PC version would be nice, although it wouldn't make Alan Wake threads any more bearable. They would just go from "this console peasant garbage sucks" to "shut up, console peasants, bow before your master race overlords".
Can play the next game in HD then!S1kkZ said:
Headtracking for flashlight would be horrible, looking side to side wouldn't be too difficult (forget the comfort or even usability) but looking up and down would be a pain, having to tilt your head up and down while keeping your focus on the screen.S1kkZ said:

Not with high enough sensitivity, but I don't think using head tracking for anything in a third-person game would be such a good idea.

I seriously hope this is not the case...it's confirmed by Remedy that this isn't AW2 which is already disappointing but making everything Kinect-friendly (see Kingdoms & AW) will be horrible.
The fear of MS shoehorning Kinect support in all their future games may turn out true.
Truant said:
well, didn't a Remedy dev comment on a tweet from Lionhead, about being interested in using 360's version of MLAA for their next game?
the only thing is, I think their version is similar to the PC versions and might require more ram....compared to the PS3 which uses the SPUs to free up some Ram.
someone correct me if I'm wrong, thankx.
You know, I would be totally OK with something smaller, Alan Wake related with Kinect this fall, as long as I get my core AW experience without Kinect next year (AW2).Feindflug said:I seriously hope this is not the case...it's confirmed by Remedy that this isn't AW2 which is already disappointing but making everything Kinect-friendly (see Kingdoms & AW) will be horrible.

All these titles(Halo Remake, Alan Wake Kinect, Kingdoms etc.) sound like stopgaps untill the Xbox 720 rolls out in 2012.Feindflug said:I seriously hope this is not the case...it's confirmed by Remedy that this isn't AW2 which is already disappointing but making everything Kinect-friendly (see Kingdoms & AW) will be horrible.

derFeef said:
I somewhat agree but personally I can't see AW2 not having at least Kinect support - everything that comes out from MS lately has the word Kinect on it...I bet that there won't be any new exclusive/first party retail title in their E3 conference that uses only traditional controls.
My main concern is how a game like AW can benefit from having Kinect support but I guess that we will probably see about that next month...I'm definitely not against Kinect I just think that the best thing for MS and us is to also have a traditional line-up for those not interested in Kinect.
[Nintex] said:
Sure they sound like stopgaps IF they plan to release a new system at 2012 which I doubt.
I still hope that's their plan though because the 360's future doesn't sound that interesting and I'm speaking as someone who loves the system and have it as my main platform from 2006.

I can't believe Remedy don't have the balls to ask Microsoft to release the PC version already even when they (Remedy) own the IP for Alan Wake, I mean Microsoft did it with Fable 3 ( look like Peter Molyneux have balls) and the first Mass Effect ( published by Microsoft) so it's not some crazy anti-PC thing going with Microsoft or something.
Nintendo's devkits are out for a while, I'm sure Microsoft knew Nintendo is/was planning to release a new system 2012. My guess is that MS will unveil it(start the viral) early next year or late this year and hype that thing all the way untill the holiday 2012 launch.Feindflug said:

Also loved Alan Wake, Cannot wait for more.
Trust me, Remedy would love to release AW on PC because their engine is capable of much more than what 360 can do.Totobeni said:
And it's definitely not about whether Remedy has balls or not. If they didn't have the balls, they would've never done that dream deal with Microsoft (MS funded Alan Wake's development for 5 years and Remedy's still an independent studio with all rights to AW's IP).
We really don't know what went wrong.

Well, if Kinect support is optional, then there's no problem, right? But of course they want to sell it to everyone, including core gamers, and that's going to be hard to accomplish if the games don't support it. If they are good and use it in interesting ways, all the whining will stop. If not... It's a gamble, but so far they've been on a winning streak.

I'm hoping it's a spin-off about a musical writer who finds his songs are coming to life and are twisted into evil musical renditions. You could find a page and upon reading any nearby taken would start dancing...malevolently!
Well, the platform confusion is because they don't want to either A.) say anything more than they have to right now, or B.) there really is a push for a PC/360 version of this upcoming game.
It's also stated that a slice of the team worked on this, so I expect Alan Wake season 2 was in development alongside this title.
My guess, with the fact that they were hiring for people with motion gaming experience last year: it's a kinect thing all in its own, PC and/or Xbox 360.

How do they sound like generational stopgaps? I don't see how establishing a bunch of new IPs (Kingdoms, Haunt, Draco, Codename D, last year's Kinect games) goes together with the idea of stopgaps. We'll be getting some Kinect spin-offs because Kinect is not a replacement for traditional controls and it can be used to attract more people - different types of gamers - to any IP.
REMEMBER CITADEL said:
Kinect is a cool technology and I'm all for new games/concepts developed with it in mind but I don't think spending resources (both tech and development wise) to include Kinect support in already known franchises/titles that are designed around traditional controls are gonna do any good to the games.
Also I'm curious to see if Kinect games like Project Draco that seem to also work with traditional controls (assuming it's a Panzer Dragoon on-rails style game) will support both control schemes like Child of Eden...I wouldn't bet on it though as MS wants to sell the device to the core gamers as you already said.
Sure we will know more about MS's approach after E3 but seeing lately as I said earlier every new info about every future 360 title having Kinect beside it it's not a good sign IMO.

PC ver with all DLC included would make me so happy as i could then get myself to replay it.

Kinect can be used to supplement the main control scheme, it doesn't have to replace it (and I bet in most core games it won't). I can see that doing a lot of good to some already established genres.
REMEMBER CITADEL said:
Right now things are confusing about this - will they be able to play Kingdoms or the new FPS title from the Vancouver studio those who do not have a Kinect? from a business point of view it won't make sense for the above games to require Kinect as the vast majority of the fanbase don't have one but you never know...I guess we'll see at E3.
