“We absolutely love what they’ve done and couldn’t be more proud of where the series is headed. I mean, they don’t really make shitty games, do they? It’s as if the Rockstar logo has become this, ‘Seal of quality.’” – Remedy’s franchise development head Oskari Hakkinen, speaking to Kotaku at CES on Max 3. Remedy’s moved on from the IP with Alan Wake, the latest installment being American Nightmare on XBLA, which is due sometime between next month and March. Max Payne 3 is due out in March.

“We’ve been blessed with being able to actually see the game and give some feedback. We’ve been meeting with Rockstar and looking at Max 3 – it looks absolutely phenomenal – the nice thing is we’ve been giving our feeling on the game but at the end of the day we don’t have to do any of the heavy lifting, which is nice. Rockstar don’t make bad games, so you already know it’s going to be good. Just like we hope the Remedy brand is a seal of quality, you know that Rockstar’s brand is a seal of quality. It’s been nice to be part of the process, but we don’t want to take any of the limelight. From what we’ve seen it’s going to be absolutely fantastic.” – Remedy’s franchise development head Oskari Hakkinen, speaking to NowGamer on the Finnish studio’s old stalwart, Max Payne.

The third game in the action series, developed at Rockstar Vancouver, launches in March for PS3, 360 and PC.

Remedy head of franchise development Oskari Hakkinen has said iOS title Death Rally has seen 1.5 million units since it first launched earlier this year. In an interview with Edge on Alan Wake’s American Nightmare, writer Sam Lake said the game, which was the developer’s first ever game 15 years ago, was its “first step into that direction, and I’m sure that we’ll do something else in the future as well.”

The company’s currently developing Alan Wake’s American Nightmare for XBLA and self-publishing the PC version of the original Wake, both due in Q1 2012.
