Now this is really interesting. YouTube’s member ‘xKyleN’ uploaded an amazing video walkthrough of Alan Wake’s Bright Fall. Players could not explore this town and what’s really interesting here is that this town is actually detailed and polished.

And it seems that the new Syndicate could suffer from a rushed development as the game’s lead co-op programmer, Lars Magnus Lang, admitted that the company could actually done more if they were given an extra six months. Continue reading Starbreeze admits that it wanted more time with Syndicate, still proud of the end result→
