Remedy's Sam Lake Has Some Things to Say About Quantum Break and... Gamescom?

"DO THE FAAAACE! DO IT!"

I will do anything for The Lake. Provided this gets a PC version, eventually.

Monarch is a great name for a corporation...or a band! 0_o

Sam Lake, writer of Alan Wake, talks Quantum Break...that's a headache!

I hate myself.

Xbox One? Come on Remedy.. come on.

@cale: this all day.

Can never have enough Sam Lake.

David Cage has a twin?

I got mad love for Remedy, but this game just isn't doing anything for me.

In a perfect world Sam Lake would have enough money to pay James McCaffrey to dub everything he says.

I have to say that.... I hope this will come to PC. I can wait... I just want them to make it on PC also. I cant see the reason why they wouldn't. Damn if they dont.

I had a little giddy freakout at that moment in Alan Wake. It was so perfectly set up.

I remember finding a similar picture of Sam Lake after scanning a QR code in one of the levels for Alan Wake. So funny.

Same Lake's game face:

If I ever meet Sam Lake I'm not sure I'll be able to keep myself from immediately saying "Do the face." (See also: Tony Hawk and "Do a 900," John Lasseter and "You have excellent shirts")

Here's the thingy thing thing thingamajig: Has Remedy ever kept an annouced deadline on a project?

I am still so so so stoked for this game. I looove everything Remedy puts out. And as much as I want Alan Wake 2 I'm glad they're taking a slight break to work on something crazy.

Gamescom is also the better convention in my opinion, E3 is just way to corporate now.

This guy freaks me out a little bit, different it seems than most of you. I see now he was the model for Max Payne, where-as I thought it was a cross of early Clint Eastwood crossed w/ quasi wise-guy Italian (though for some reason I thought Payne Polish descent?). But Sam lake making that little jump into the camera made me jump a little.

Strange guy, but effective.

Looks underwhelming so far. Really hope that "tv show" isn't just undertrained actors doing their best to sell a thin plot.

Wow, Max Payne got his shit together

Looks alright. I'd be interested to play any Remedy game.

I'm glad we live in the alternate timeline in which we get to see OG Max Payne grow old.

"Entertainment experiences like.no.other" I see what you did there mr Lake... Clever!

I love how that guy comes across as totally lame but he doesn't give a damn. I like his style!

Feel my wrath!

Oh and the game looks cool, looking forward to seeing more.

There are a lot of references to Monarch butterflies throughout various forms of media. Usually associated with the idea of mind control and/or generally villainous shit.

Sam Lake is so weird. I love him.

I bet the TV show is going to be sooo cheesy, lol. Hopefully the game will live up to everything they promise. Xbone needs a hit and fast.

This whole thing just sounds like the worst idea ever. This will be one of those things we look back at in a few years and say, "remember when they did that weird live action thing with that one game?"

I have a great deal of faith in Remedy.

Looks neat.

Sam seems like he should be holding a slim cigarillo whilst giving this pitch. Or at all times, for that matter. At each pause in his speech i anticipate him slowly breathing out a little bit of smoke or taking a very luxurious and pleasurable drag from said cigarillo.

this sounds awesome its kind of making me lean towards xbone rather than ps4.. i dont know if i will ever get either though i love my pc i feel like i would never touch a new console

In other news: Future plc, owner of Pc Gamer, Edge, CVG sheds 170 jobs after $50 mil loss.

You can't stay mad at this guy. If he told me he ran over my puppy I'd be okay with it, I could tell people Max Payne killed my puppy.

This seems like a front company for the Sneak King. Imagine how much easier surprising people will be with time freezing powers!

I would turn for Sam Lake.

An ecchi modern TV series, you say? Onegai...!

Nobody's going to report on EA closing Mythic?

Looks literally just like Uncharted but with time manipulation and the show gimmick.

@djjoejoe: I'm not sure about this. That's what I thought too, but then they keep talking about it like it's a separate thing. I don't even know anymore.

Is this the start of Microsoft realizing that all the awesome voice stuff, tv stuff and I don't know what else on the XboxOne is totally useless in most of Europe, and are throwing us a bone. "This game is going to be shown at Gamescom guys! Fuck yeah Europe! Please buy the XboxOne."

Probably not, but that is a serious issue that I hear no one talking about. Is the EU market really that small? I thought that part of the reason the PS 3 caught up as much as it did was because it did so well in Europe. Think about how useless you feel the Kinect is, then remove the TV integration and put the voice recognition back six years, you can start to imagine how useless that thing is over here.

Anyway, game looks cool. I wish Remedy never got tangled up in the exclusive publishing business.

Coincidence, or subtle marketing ploy to get me to call their new console the XONE? I'M NOT FALLING FOR YOUR TRICKS, MICROSOFT!!1

/joke

Did he say the main character's name was Chack Choice?

Sam Lake creeps me the heck out, y'all.

Now that looks cool and interesting.

Take notes Watch dogs.

is the hype level there for this game? this seems like the kind of video you would make when the game is extremely expected by people? I havent notice peoples tone towards this game being all that...

Teasers for trailers.
