Europe: Alan Wake drops May 14th

Microsoft just issued a press-release announcing that “Alan Wake” had its European release date moved to May 14th; that’s one week earlier than originally planned for those who keep track.

The American release is happening on May 18th — unchanged.

“Alan Wake” is the first game of the studio responsible for “Max Payne”, Remedy, in 7 years and will be released exclusively on Xbox 360.

Halo: Reach to feature pink spartans adorned with unicorns

Ok, this isn’t really news, but it’s good that pink spartans are confirmed for “Reach”, news is however, that Bungie has revealed what they call the “All-Encompassing Player Investment”-System for “Halo: Reach”.

What this means is that you can collect Credits in both single- and multiplayer by simply playing the game or completing challenges which are generated daily.

For a more detailed look, you can view G4’s coverage of this system.

Halo: Reach has significantly more ‘p’ than Halo 3

Digital Foundry has taken a good look at that “Halo: Reach” ViDoc released a week ago, revealing what seems to be the resolution of the game’s current iteration: 1152×720, without any anti-aliasing.

“Halo 3″ as well as “Halo 3: ODST” sported the oft-critized resolution of 1152×640, which means that not only is “Reach” displaying 4 times the polygons, the image quality is also much improved.

Personally, I don’t assume this is going to change until the Beta drops in May — we’ll keep you posted. I do have a rather hard time sitting still just thinking about that.

Alan Wake Sequel “should [part 1] be successful”

VG247’s Patrick Garratt sat down with Remedy’s Oskari Häkkinen and spoke to him about the possibility of a sequel to “Alan Wake”:

You want to think of this as Season 1, so to speak, of a TV series. This will have a satisfactory and conclusive ending, but we will leave doors open, just as they do in Lost of 24, where they have a satisfactory ending to the season but they leave some doors open for the larger story. Just the same here. We’ll have the satisfactory and conclusive ending, and should this be successful then we will do Season 2.

I am not one to guilt trip you into things, but I think you should save up some cash. I have a good feeling about this one, and if I am right, we’ll probably all want more “Alan Wake”. In short: Please buy this.
