Remember when Max Payne creator Remedy suggested that its “psychological action thriller” Alan Wake could hit Xbox 360 first and the promised PC edition would follow? Well, it now appears that a PC release of the game isn’t a question of when, but if.
“Other than [the Xbox 360 version] the plans are up in the air and open,” lead writer Sam Lake told Edge. When asked if the game was still coming to PC, he said that “once we’re done with the 360 version we’ll evaluate the situation and see what makes sense.”
Originally announced for the PC and “next generation consoles” in 2005, Alan Wake was later confirmed for Xbox 360 and PC when Microsoft signed on to publish in 2006, with the company recently specifying a “spring 2010″ release for the Xbox 360 edition.

Well this sucks, looks like they’re giving up the PC version of the game. With this trend of games giving up the PC platform, what will happen to PC gaming? This just sucks. I was expecting to play this sometime next year at least. Oh well. I hope there’ll be enough people to petition it back into the PC realm.
