Dont think i did a thread on this upcoming game from the guys who brought us Max Payne.
A recent preview at Gamesradar (http://www.gamesradar.com/previews/default.asp?pagetypeid=2&articleid=42980&subsectionid=1599) shows off some of the aspects and pics of the game's thriller and suspenseful features.
"But this is not just a shooter, and all these effects - volumetric shadows, high dynamic rendering, ambient occlusion, bloom, depth of field, normal mapping and various pixel-shaders - are not just for show.
Brilliantly, Wake can use light as a weapon. Anything from a simple torch, through to portable lamps fitted with motion sensors and an entire lighthouse, can be used to hold off the things in the dark.
Weather and environmental effects will add new challenges to driving and exploring sections, and of course nightfall - which gets earlier every day as the nights grow freakishly long - brings a whole new set of problems. Alan Wake's nightmares grow flesh at sundown. Who are these caped and hooded men? Where is his wife? Is Wake just insane?"
Something to look forward to by June/July 2006.
