If you are a PS3 owner and you are hoping to play the sequel for the critically acclaimed Psychological action thriller ‘Alan Wake’ on your console, you have to forget about it right now. Despite developer Remedy owning Alan Wake IP, they want to make the sequel exclusive for Microsoft’s console.

While Alan Wake was praised by the critics, the game isn’t selling as expected. Because of that, there was a lot of rumors hinting at a possibility for the game to be released on Sony’s console, or at least we would see the cancelled PC port of the game in order to sell more copies of the game before Remedy officially announce the sequel. It seems that we won’t see Alan Wake on other platforms despite the fact that Remedy’s Oskari Häkkinen told Eurogamer about the PC version: “I could never say it’s impossible, but it’s certainly not on the cards at the moment.”

While the sequel for Alan Wake isn’t officially announced (Oskari Häkkinen stated that they still have to talk with Microsoft Game Studious about the sequel), he said that Remedy want to make the game exclusive for Xbox360, but at the same time, there is a possibility for the sequel to be released on Xbox and PC:
 

“With Microsoft Game Studios it’s Xbox exclusive, or it’s Xbox and PC,” he continued “Please don’t put that Alan Wake 2 is going to come out on PC, because that might not be true! Either is a possibility.”
 

Though he clarified why Remedy want to keep Alan Wake IP in Microsoft’s hands: “Microsoft put a lot of beef behind the title for it to be an exclusive for the 360. They feel it’s an important title for their portfolio. It fits into their portfolio among other games like Gears of War, Halo and Forza.”
 

It seems that PS3 owners won’t be playing Alan Wake on their consoles any time soon. But I have something to say for Xbox360 owners, if you want more exclusives that aren’t Halos, Gears and Fables, why you aren’t buying Alan Wake?
