Microsoft has announced this morning that it's moving the UK release date of hotly anticipated psychological action thriller Alan Wake forward to 14 May.
The game, about a horror author who seeks refuge in a small village when stricken with writer's block, has been one of the most anticipated Xbox titles since it was announced five (count 'em) years ago.
And in a related story, the annual video game festival GameCity has scored another impressive coup. Having just started a series of special monthly events, the organisers have lined up an onstage Q&A session with Sam Lake, the writer of Alan Wake.
At noon on 24 April, he'll be at the Broadway Cinema in Nottingham, answering questions from the audience as well as GameCity director Iain Simons.
Just thought I'd let Gamesblog readers know as this has been one of the games that's appeared regulary in Chatterbox discussions. You'll need to book tickets in advance. All the details are right here.
