:) Alan Wake is going to rock my world! :)

The fact that everything is shadowed is incredible, and I've read that they're using volumetric shadows. Are they really using volumetric shadows? The tree leaves have shadows, so wouldn't they have to individual model each tree leave to create the volume for those leaves? Remedy guys, enlighten us!

The trick is to make things look more complicated than they actually are, though in this case things are pretty complicated (and volumetric) ;)
