Twesterms classic quote:  "Flop is the wrong word but I don't think it will sell a million and it definitely won't make money."

If a game doesn't make money from almost 2m sales what is the point.

But of course, Alan Wake made a fortune.

Man, Alan Wake was such wasted potential.  I remember seeing trailers for it when it was still a PC/PS3/360 multiplat, and it was going to be open-world.  The idea of a thriller game being so open and the world constantly changing around you when it turned nighttime had me intrigued.  Then they announced it being PC/360 exclusive, which was fine, as I could play it on the PC.  The concept is what appealed to me, not what system it was on.  But then it was announced as a 360 exclusive and it was going to be linear and my interest dropped 100%.  Damn shame really.
