Simple teleport theory. Full grown tentacles are teleported from Xen to Black Mesa.

Remedy is currently conducting surveys to work out what has impressed the fans about Alan Wake. Over at the official forums, they are asking fans to vote on which screenshots are the most impressive as well as which trailers were the best. The outcome of these surveys will determine what kind...

2 years for an awesome, amazing new engine 4 years to build up content, storyline and gameplay (plus a game of decent length) 1 year to iron out bugs and gameplay I think of it like this. You can have HL3 in 7 years, or you can have the episodes that come twice a year. With the cliffhanger...

I've heard of people buying it from EB Games, so i'll be dropping by tomorrow to see if they have it.
