Most of you probably saw this on"On the Spot" . Its a trailer for "Alan Wake" on the PS3. Its pretty spooky and its done just like a movie trailer. What do you think the actual gameplay will look like and do you think its gonna be good?
EDIT: and the X-Box

I read an article PCGamer US had on it, but I'm still confused. From screens and clips it looks to have fairly good graphics and realistic sunlight and shadow effects according to times of the day. It's supposed to be very open also... similar to GTA:SA, but maybe more open, which would really be great.

Now that I've seen this trailer I'm more interested in it than ever. I don't think it's literally based off of a book. It looks like Alan Wake was an author. He dreamed inspirations for his books. Then he moved into some town that ended up being abandoned and his nightmares became true, but only at night. Either this or maybe there's some kind of twist where everything he sees is in his imagination... seeing as its an abandoned town.

Check out the interview.
"Taking its cue from Stephen King novels and the kind of scary small town Americana that David Lynch explored so memorably in Twin Peaks, it's a free roaming action adventure that the makers of Max Payne are pitching as "truly next generation"."
There we go. So it's based off of Stephen King, not Alan Wake.
