That Mr Wake’s given us quite the run-around, hasn’t he? We first heard tell of the man back at E3 2005 – a celebrity pulp author with acute insomnia, cowering in the midst of a spooky Midwestern small-town sandbox.
Half a decade later the sandbox is conspicuous by its absence, with Remedy opting for a linear episodic format redolent of Alone in the Dark, but Alan’s still got insomnia, and his game still looks rather tasty.
Check out the footage from last night’s X10 event. The game’s out for Xbox 360 on 18th May in North America and 21st May in Europe.
