Alan Wake trailer is dark, sheds little light

After its Finnish premiere last week, the latest Alan Wake trailer is now available to the internet savvy masses. For a game that's been completely dark for what seems like years now, the trailer is appropriately cagey about the game, revealing very little that we didn't already know. We get a sweeping panorama of the game's setting of Bright Falls, Washington, hear rumblings of strange disappearances, meet Alan Wake's friend Perry (along with some locals) and get an overall sense of creepiness. That's about it really. No release date (or even a release window), no gameplay details, nothing. We suppose beggars can't be choosers and, hey, at least we got some new screenshots out of it right?
