Alright kiddies, step right up and watch the newest and only trailer for Alan Wake’s upcoming DLC titled ‘The Signal” here. Commence the speculation! Well, it seems that we will indeed be playing as the Alan which is stuck in that darkness world. But what’s Barry doing there? What the hell? Well, at least we’ll have some amusing banter coming out of this. And it looks like they’ll be toying with the stuff we saw in the final level of Alan Wake–items which are denoted by words, which you can shine a light on to make them ‘real’. Frankly, seems a bit lame but perhaps they’ll find some neat uses for it. I’m still not convinced that having more of the same warrants playing through more of this game, though I’m sure we’ll know for sure once it actually drops. That being said, with all the hoopla surrounding the notion that Alan Wake is NOT a horror game, why use the ending for the trailer that they did? The wrong assumptions for the game aren’t coming unwarranted, they’re giving us mixed messages! Plus, the perfect trailer would have teased us with story-related food for thought, no? I mean, that’s the primary reason why we’re playing this game.
