Provided that the first game sells well enough when it debuts next week,
a followup to Alan Wake seems like a no-brainer for developer
Remedy Entertainment. And according to recent chatter from the
developers, the studio already has the story for a potential Alan Wake
sequel mapped out.
“We do know where season two is going to go,” Remedy’s

Natal Goes Deliverance on Our Behind
Microsoft has evidently given filmmaker James Gunn, perhaps best known
as the writer and director of 2006’s Slither, an early
play-date with Project Natal. Why does this matter to you? Because he’s
written a blog post (via VG247) about his experience, where he reveals a

New Natal Demo Shows Life Through the Eyes of Predators

surfaced on the web and gives us another look at just what the

Microsoft Game Room is an incredibly innovative way to deliver retro games. Rather than a series of menus, you can actually play old arcade games in an arcade.

Decisions That Shaped Video Game History
We cannot pinpoint what sent the giant SEGA ball rolling down hill,
eventually to its grave as a console maker, but the botched Saturn
launch, if not the catalyst, rang like a death knell.
Sharpied for a September 2nd, 1995 launch, enthusiasts and analysts
were shocked when the company used the year’s E3 to announce an

Remaining Halo 2 Players Get a Surprise
Most gamers have long since moved on, but there are still a few brave Halo 2 players holding the line against the night over on the original Xbox. Microsoft is rewarding these few loyal fans with some free stuff, and a chance to join the Halo: Reach beta (via Kotaku).
