Oho! Good thread so far!
Squilliam's point about Sony making engines from scratch, at greater expense, is true: and now those engines are available for use in sequels and games of similar genre. The PS3 toolset (something-Phyre, right?) is now available and should also make a disproportionate impact.
That Alan Wake background ^^ looks about like the scenery in Resistance 2. You guys are saying it's an older shot, right?
