News of the upcoming Alan Wake sequel being an XBLA title left a bad taste in some gamers’ mouths, with fears of the the game being “second tier” running rampant. Developer Remedy came to the game’s defense, saying that it will be “structured like a full release complete with a pretty damn impressive storyline.”
VGAs event organizer Geoff Keighley has now also given the game a thumbs up. “I’ve seen the game, I’ve seen the trailer we’re showing and even though it’s going to be a downloadable game, it’s not a small game. I mean, it effectively is, I think, Alan Wake 2 when you really look at it and look what they’re doing with that game. It’s really ambitious, beautiful technology and I think people are going to be really excited about it.
So I think one thing that’s happening and will happen over the next year is the idea of downloadable games will change and it won’t necessarily mean small experience.”
The VGAs will take place in a few days on December 10th. Keep your eyes peeled for more new reveals!
