Remedy is awesome.

Alan Wake 94% Meta, 3 million copies, I stand by my original prediction.

You seem optimistic... but then again, I thought you were optimistic over Assassin's Creed II, and I think you were dead right

 

Ahh, thanks for reminding me of AC2. I just checked, yes I was very close.

Since then we also have Uncharted 2 to use as a comparison tool to predict Alan Wake sales. Some people dont realize it, but the market appeal, reviews and sales between UC2 and AW will be very similar.

Well Uncharted 2 came into it with best of E3 awards, very positive feedback from the beta, and from the first game. AW is not an established franchise, and Remedy's last effort was so long ago, its legacy won't have that much effect.

M$ usually market very well, so if they do that, it should sell well. I think a better comparison would be with the original Uncharted, which sold so well due to word of mouth. {and yes, bundles}
