Because Alan Wake sold very well over time and they have a good relationship with MS.
Also, because they most likely know (internally) that if Quantum break performs well, Alan Wake 2 will get the green light.
Microsoft's E3 conference date is Monday, June 10th

After E3, those who avoided the ban hammer should proudly add a "I survived E3 2013" tag on their avatar.
I'm okay with this!
Since I've been here, the banhammer has been swift and repeated. Strikes fear into the hearts of juniors everywhere lol
BTW, 35 hours, 5 minutes before absolute bliss. HYPE

I feel like I might get banned. I'm paranoid guys
Never give up, never surrender!
Posters of Xbox GAF! My brothers & sisters. I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come, when the courage of Xbox GAF fails, when we forsake our friends list, and break all bonds of gamer score. An hour of SDF, and shattered controllers, when the Age of GAF comes crashing down. But it is not this day, this day, we fight!

Microsoft has already confirmed this.
And the point of retail discs is being able to find bargains due to retailers competing with each other. And also, trade-ins.

Welcome Sioen! Nice to have you here
Just make sure you read over the forum rules and all that stuff I mentioned at the top of the page and you should fit right in. If you get an avatar I'll add you to the train. (or I can just write your name on it)

Sure hang on I'll find a suitable avatar! Well this generation I chose for the 360 but the coming gen I already chose nintendo and.. We'll see at e3.
Nintendo has more to prove to me than anyone. I glare at my Wii U with disgust everytime I sit in my living room.

As an old school Nintendo fan and as someone who always ends up with all the major consoles in a generation, I really want Nintendo to bring it! Same with Sony and Microsoft. The games industry has gotten complacent and lazy towards the end of this gen (although, there have been GREAT games towards the end of this gen). They need to drop major bombs to get people back into AAA console gaming, and I think they will this E3.
I really want to own a Wii U, but simply cannot justify it until Nintendo shows they have good games coming soon.

I just can't understand how Nintendo could launch without one big game, they had all the time in the world.
And 2d Mario doesn't count!

They are new to next Gen while everyone pretty much moved on.
Shit sux but I will buy one with the next 3d Mario or Zelda.

I honestly think that they thought Nintendo Land would be as big of a system seller as Wii Sports was.

Remedy seem to be quite happy working with Microsoft, and they were probably convinced that this would be the right time to launch a new IP. The thing with Remedy is they want to keep IP ownership. Microsoft lets their independent partners do that more often than not, whereas Sony, together with most other big publishers, almost never does (in fact, I can only remember a few downloadable titles where Sony didn't also grab the IP, along with publishing rights). Sony would also not let them publish the game on PC.
For what it's worth, Microsoft have supported Alan Wake well, they let Remedy release a PC port, published American Nightmare on XBLA (again, with a PC port following soon afterward), and made Alan Wake a part of their official 2010 holiday bundle. Alan Wake 2 will probably do better if it's released a few years from now, when Xbox One install base is larger, the game's (totally undeserved) mediocre scores have been largely forgotten, and the cult status solidified. A new live action Bright Falls series would also fit with Microsoft's broad entertainment aspirations.

This. Alan Wake has gotten plenty of attention from MS and Remedy. I just think Remedy didn't want to be a one trick pony with NLT putting out Alan Wake titles forever. They do great work and Quantum Break will most like be outstanding! Alan will come back eventually
Also, just because people like Blow, Phil and Team Meat have said bad things about MS, lots of other developers, indie and AAA, like Remedy, have had great relationships with Microsoft and have thrived. It's just the very vocal few that get the most attention and set the narrative.

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.
MS seems the perfect partner for remedy, they were leaning towards live action/game, ms wasnts game/tv, perfect match

If what I heard was true then a lot of people will be happy. However I have doubts how a gamestop employee would know the games MS would have.
Dish out the info dude. Let's see if there is any plausibility.
Edit. Pm me the games when you can, we don't want to spoil the list in case the list is legit.

thus the reason i really don't believe it.
please do share, always interesting to hear rumors no matter the validity.
no weight to bear on your shoulders, as you've put the disclaimer of the shaky validity of the source.
Well, for one thing, they apparently weren't staffed properly for HD development. For another, I doubt developers actually had that much time - even studios within Nintendo. Most of Nintendo's heavy hitting studios were coming off of 2010 and 2011 releases as well. And then they have to support the 3DS, which needed heavy support in 2011.

"You were the Chosen One! The Console War Medic! It was said that you would destroy the Fanboys, not join them! Bring balance to the Console War, not leave it in chaos! "
I think it implies a few things...the new xbox will cost $400, you'll be sent to work at camps to afford it, master chief may die in the next halo and there's a jetpack in the new controller so that it flies to you more easily?
of course this is all just hilarious conjecture, no seriousness intended. i really don't understand it at all.
