Remedy Entertainment to collaborate on soundtrack featuring indie-electronica-rockers Kasabian for upcoming action-adventure Alan Wake: American Nightmare
posted by chris sweda
EMI Music Publishing Scandinavia and Remedy Entertainment today announced that Remedy’s upcoming XBLA title Alan Wake’s American Nightmare will feature a duo of EMI songwriters and composers, namely “Club Foot” which is performed by British indie-electronica-rockers Kasabian and “Watching the Sun Come Up” by English singer-songwriter and Mercury-Prize winner Ed Harcourt.
“Having already worked with Remedy on their previous Alan Wake title we were more than happy to continue our relationship with them and I believe that our combined ability to select and supervise moody tracks for Remedy’s upcoming action-adventure will result in a better gameplay experience.” said Andreas Olsson, VP Sales at EMI Music Publishing Scandinavia.
“Music played an important role in the original Alan Wake and we’ve carried that tradition over to American Nightmare with an exceptionally strong selection of original and licensed songs”, said Oskari Häkkinen, Head of Franchise Development at Remedy “and to spice things up a little more, Alan’s old-time buddy and literary agent Barry Wheeler has become the manager of the game’s seminal rock-band Old Gods of Asgard – expect a brand new single to be included with the game!”
Diablo 3 Confirmed for Consoles
By Sean McQuillan
Blizzard has finally confirmed that Diable 3 will see a console release. It was in a response to a fan who asked community manager Bashiok to confirm or deny the console speculation. Bashiok said “Yup, Josh Mosqueira is lead designer of the Diablo Console project”. It’s expected to see the Xbox 360 . While I’m still primarily a PC gamer, I wholeheartedly welcome companies to embrace cross platform designs. Having played Diablo 3 at Blizzcon this last year I can say the controls would fit a controller just as well. No word yet as to how this may affect the Real Money Auction house system.

James Heller, players will cut a bloody swathe through the wastelands of post-viral New York Zero with unparalleled locomotion, building up a vast genetic arsenal of deadly, biological weapons and abilities as they hunt, kill and consume their way toward the ultimate goal — to kill…Alex…Mercer!
