Alan Wait Forever!

I wonder what this means. - I am still a little in the dark over what you actually do in this game. - It is a game in the third person. We have a shooting, action, exploration for the track, drive, Pursuit. There is a lot different here. It's episodic content. We like to talk about the episodes, instead of level. Each episode has a different content. Episodic Content?

A few answers for you on what Alan Wake actually is, in terms of story & game play (from the past 3-4 years of reading up on it. It's been my most anticipated game for some time):

Alan Wake is a survival-horror game in the truest sense...More akin to the psycological horror of Silent Hill, than the action-based Resident Evil series (and I'm meaning this in the un-nerving way SH presented everything...From the killer rooms, to the death-defying puzzles, and the creepy/scary enemies).

The game is going to be presented in a sandbox format: You will have an entire cozy little Washington town, with plenty of menacing forests & points of interest outside of the town.

The game will be episode based in the fact that you'll have in-game chapters...They don't mean that the game will release one disc at a time...Think Max Payne's chapters.

The story is as follows:

Alan Wake is a very popular horror novelist (think Stephen King). He makes a lot of money from his horrifying stories. However, the reason he's such a popular novelist is due to a strange occurance: After meeting his wife, he begins to have frightening, surreal dreams, that he writes down and bases his novels off of.....Secret Window had a similar plot arc. In fact, this very same idea was how James Cameron started the entire Terminator franchise - he had a nightmare about a metallic robot rising from a car wreck...Which started the said series.

At any rate, one day, Alan's wife (or may it's his GF?) disappears. As suddenly as she disappears, so does his nightmares. He's unable to write any more, since he really had no proficency in writing as he relied on his dreams. He also begins to suffer from insomnia, which compounds his difficulties. The in-game story begins as he travels to a town in Washington, to seek help for his insomnia.

Once at the creepy little town, he checks in at the clinic, and meets a very mysterious woman - she looks exactly like his missing wife. He falls in love with her, due to her similar traits, and they move in together. His nightmares come back into his life, so he thinks that everything is okay.

But..

The dreams go much further. His brutal, scary, nightmares begin to manifest in the real world during the twilight and night hours while in the the area, and your goal is to unravel why all this is going on: Who is this woman that looks like your missing wife? Why are your nightmares coming to real life? Where is your missing wife, anyways?

As the game progresses, the town takes on a progressively more sinister look. Daytime reduces as the game goes on, and nighttime & twilight comes more often, and stays more frequently (think living near the polar regions, where there is never-ending darkness, or very few hours of day time). That's the world that Alan Wake evolves into.

And I think that's what makes the game so neat: Great storyline, sandbox questing, focus on psycological/real 'horror', and the graphics are pretty amazing from what I've seen. If the game really does what it says it will, it should be the 360's best game ever.

- I understand that you can not tell when the game comes in the sale, but can you tell us when we will see more of the game?

- Very soon I hope, but I can not tell you precisely nothing.
