“Break the belts, grind the gears, this is what corporate fears. Stop the line for a time, through our will by our design.” It was well past midnight and the candles had burned low when the women assembled in Donna’s living room finished chanting and gazed down collectively at the sheet of paper on the floor. Though the presence that had arrived during the ritual did not remain once the lights were turned on, they all agreed that they felt a sense of fulfillment.

Alan Wake Review
Alan Wake was developed by Remedy Entertainment over the course of 5 years and was published by Microsoft Game Studios and Remedy Entertainment. Written mostly by Sam Lake, the game was originally meant to be an open world survival game - the exact opposite of the company's previous title - Max Payne. Unfortunately, however, there were some difficulties merging the gameplay with the story that they wanted to tell and so the game had to be re-worked.
