     but it didn't sell worth crap.

    Not true, it ultimately performed quite well and, according to the remedy guys in their forum, pleasing to both them and microsoft. It just had a really, really slow start.

    The quote about "It's something that'll definitely give more to the Wake fans out there" makes me think it wont be a re-release of the original. They are smart enough to know people won't buy the game again just with some extra added material.

    Maybe Alan Wake will become the next Tom Clancy, and we'll get to play through games based on his books.  Kinda like Garth Merenghi, but with better hair.

    I'd assume you either play through Thomas Zane's story, or through Tor and Odin's story.

    Would love for this to be multiplatform Director's Cut, which basically adds some open world elements, and allows players to turn off the HUD, or at the very least fade in/out

    Alan Wake did a lot of things right, but it was missing something for me...



    Still, i'm glad Remedy will get another chance to make a 'Wake' style game, as any huge Stephen King fan will be glad.

    So like brotherhood. It diverts from the main storyline but still gives you what you want. It might be a prequel or follow another character(his wife?) instead.

    My bet is that it's going to be Alan Wake: Something Something. So that it's not technically Alan Wake 2.

    If i was to make a guess, Id say the game will be based of Alan wakes books. Alex Casey?  It's set int he world of Alan's writing and its a crime drama almost like Max Payne.

    My guess would be an expanded edition of Alan Wake available for more "platforms." I have to assume that the additions/changes are substantial or they wouldn't be getting our hopes up.

    It's gotta be somebody investigating the events of the first game, a rookie detective perhaps? An overenthusiastic Alan Wake (the author) fanboy? They arrive at the town to re-trace Alan's last known steps and, inevitably, find themselves stcuk in a maze of crazy people and flashbacks of scenes from the first game. Anyway, that would give them an excuse to remind you of the events of the first game, introduce new players to the events of the first game, and gives you a way of bringing Alan back. I'm pretty sure I'm 1,000,000% correct, even though I just wrote down the first thing I thought of.

    Perhaps the events of the game from another perspective, and with a totally different set of gameplay mechanics? That'd be cool.

    but just as importantly, this installment will also give an opportunity for players who aren't familiar with the franchise to finally jump on board.

    It's not gonna be multiplatform, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a Kinect enabled edition of the first one or perhaps a Kinect focused entry in the franchise that isn't tied to the plot of the first.

    I'm going to guess it's something for Kinect. Alan Wake is published by Microsoft Game Studios, remember? They have an excellent franchise and flashlight-based shooting gameplay. It definitely fits in with Kinect. If it is I may have to think about getting one...

    Technically Brotherhood was 1.3333333333 (etc) and Revelations will be 1.66666666 (etc)

    Says it's a part of the studio working on it. Sounds like an Xbox Live Arcade title to me. Eighter it's a Case Zero/Case West type of deal or it's a top down shooter like that Dead Nation one.

    Alan Wake: Shake that Bake, a dance rhythm game for Kinect.

    Pre-order bonus includes Alan's flashlight (no actual use for the game, but you can shine it at the Kinect sensor, while dancing, to confuse and ultimately obtain marginally better results!

    Limited edition will net you Christmas lights to wrap around yourself.*

    Sounds to me like they're gonna give Alice Wake her own game. Perhaps searching for her disappeared husband? That's what I've been hoping for after finishing Alan Wake and reading Stephen King's Lisey's Story anyway.

    Just make sure they hire different writers than the ones they had for Alan Wake.  Ironically, the writing was the worst part of that game.

    Hate to spoil the excitement, but It's an iOS game, peeps. After the release of Alan Wake and its DLCs, Remedy started to make Death Rally for iOS. Why? They needed quick money after disappointing sales from the big investment Alan Wake. To survive, they're probably continuing with that smaller stuff until they have an idea for a big game again that Microsoft/whoever feel they can fund.

    As a comparison, guess what 2K Czech, the makers of the original Mafia game - then Illusion Softworks -, started developing after Mafia 2's disappointing sales. Top Spin 4, a freakin' tennis game. I am not joking.

    It wasn't a great game! I felt it took itself too seriously, even with all the references and the jokes (which I'll admit were occasionally funny)

    i will only buy a Alice Wake game if she is pantsless 80% of the game. Y'know, just like how she is depicted in Alan Wake.

    How about Alan's Wake -- During a trip to Ireland, Alan is possessed by the ghost of James Joyce and spends 14 years working on a book no one understands. Pages found would read like this:

    What clashes here of wills gen wonts, oystrygods gaggin fishy-
    gods! Brékkek Kékkek Kékkek Kékkek! Kóax Kóax Kóax! Ualu 
    Ualu Ualu! Quaouauh! Where the Baddelaries partisans are still 
    out to mathmaster Malachus Micgranes and the Verdons cata- 
    pelting the camibalistics out of the Whoyteboyce of Hoodie 
    Head. Assiegates and boomeringstroms. Sod's brood, be me fear! 
    Sanglorians, save! Arms apeal with larms, appalling. Killykill- 
    killy: a toll, a toll. What chance cuddleys, what cashels aired 
    and ventilated! What bidimetoloves sinduced by what tegotetab- 
    solvers! What true feeling for their's hayair with what strawng 
    voice of false jiccup! O here here how hoth sprowled met the 
    duskt the father of fornicationists but, (O my shining stars and 
    body!) how hath fanespanned most high heaven the skysign of 
    soft advertisement! But was iz? Iseut? Ere were sewers? The oaks 
    of ald now they lie in peat yet elms leap where askes lay. Phall if 
    you but will, rise you must: and none so soon either shall the 
    pharce for the nunce come to a setdown secular phoenish.
