[Genyus]

Surprised nobody posted this yet.

In this long-awaited exclusive Xbox 360â„¢ title, fill the shoes of one Alan Wake, a man who makes his living from the terror of others as a best-selling suspense novelist. Trapped in the deceptively peaceful Washington town of Bright Falls, where he came to escape the trauma of losing his fiancée, Alan must piece together a mystery to prevent himself from being trapped inside a nightmarish world forever.

An intense psychological thriller from Remedy, the creators of Max Payne, Alan Wake looks to raise the bar for future games, creating a true cinematic experience. Explore an expansive world filled with missions, unique puzzles, intense combat, and horrifying enemies. Dig into a twisting and multi-layered story filled with suspense, engaging characters, and shocking revelations.

    * Episodic content: The mission-based structure of Alan Wake creates an episodic narrative similar to the very best of dramatic television. As the episodes progress, gameplay evolves to introduce new elements and characters, drawing the player deeper into the experience.
    * Realistic environment: Experience an immersive reality like never before, as weather and light changes affect gameplay. Explore every aspect of a hyper-detailed Pacific Northwest town as you look for the truth behind the horror around you.
    * Massive world: Explore and roam free in an open environment as you investigate the mysteries of Bright Falls. Pay close attention to detail as you look for clues scattered through the town.
    * Brutal combat: As night falls, creatures begin to attack, and the longer Alan spends in Bright Falls, the longer the nights get. His enemies seem to draw their power from the darkness, and light soon becomes his greatest ally. Combine use of light with more conventional weapons to drive back the forces that hide in the dark.

Are they unable to name things just with names, and have to name it after their main character or something?

looks cool tho

EDIT: WOO pacific northwest is where I'm from

Obviously it has the name of the main character since he is the person it's all about and it's from the creators of Max Payne.

Oh yesh, Alan Wake, the everlasting Finn project.

It's also coming on PC, whenever that is.  Oh and...about the name, it has a little second meaning to it. Alan Wake, A. Wake.

Looking forward to the game, I just hope it won't be many more years.

Seems interesting, I wondered what happened to the Max Payne developers  Really liked their previous games so I'll keep an eye out for this now.
