A Microsoft promotional flyer confirms its appearance at the show as well as offering the chance for lucky winners to appear in the game itself.

"Watch the Vista gaming demo and you could appear in the latest Remedy blockbuster, Alan Wake, a psychological action thriller with an intense cinematic look," the flyer states.

"Let the games begin with a trip to Finland to be digitally mastered into Alan Wake's world, then jet off to Tokyo to the 2008 Tokyo Games Show to be on the scene and on the screen!"

All sounds very exciting for the winners, we'll just be happy to see some new footage of a game that looked mighty impressive when we last saw it back at the dawn of time.
