Alan Wake just launched on Gaikai
Do MS or Remedy own the IP of Alan Wake, if it’s MS surely it’s doubtful they’d have gone with Gaikai with the ink still drying on a Sony buy-out?
And that would mean that it is OnLive that has been bought by Sony… If so I sure hope they change their policy on data-centre distance and get more of them as the blockiness & artifacting made OnLive unplayable for me whilst Gaikai looked HD.

ms just published it on console.
Remedy published it on pc didn’t they?

I think I’m going to be very disappointed with the “next” generation.
