What’s that other game? Besides Alan Wake I mean. Isn’t it called something like ‘Rainy Woods’?
Alan Wake, Rainy Woods, Deadly Premonition, samey samey same…I keed, I keed
Moar survival horror on proper consoles is what I say.
@ Splattered House – maybe it’ll be a region free X360 game, we can only hope.

I like so much the style of Rainy Woods, i love Twin Peaks
So disappointed, they change the game!

Good grief, it’s been so long I’d completely forgotten about Rainy Woods.
Regardless, they’ve improved the tech a lot since the original trailers but it still looks a bit pony. It’s like they’ve tried to combine Silent Hill and Alan Wake and ended up with… neither.

Lol that Rainy Woods is just a Twin Peaks rip-off… Definitely the same game, looks cool.

Meh – Twin Peaks meets Alan Wake via Silent Hill. One to miss, IMHO.
