Alan Wake

More games like this one, please!

Very Cool game I love it

this story is very good!

Very atmospheric, and engaging. The shadowy darkness and takens are truly terrifying yet fun to eliminate. Controls are well-done, and gameplay is never repetitive, being mixed up every now and then. Graphically the use of light is simply fantastic. And the in-game tv, radio and even soundtrack are superb. To top it off, the US version that I bought comes with free download code for first downloadable content (the signal, i think).

I really do not get why this game gets so much praise. It is good game, no doubt. I just do not think it is anywhere even close to as good as Dead Space (1 or 2) or Resident Evil series. This is a survival horror game, and the story is pretty good, The gameplay is pretty solid and the game does a good job of immersing you in the survival horror mood and atmosphere, but the combat is only so-so, the game play is only so-so, the story is only so-so. In the deadspace and RE games the weapons are VITAL parts of the game. Who cant wait to get a stronger better weapon in those games to cut off some limbs and and explode some zombie heads? In Alan wake your best weapon is a flash light.... yeah a flash light that makes the bad dudes recoil in pain and cover their eyes. OH NO! cover their eyes. It is something I ring up my best friend and say "dude! did you see how those shadow guys in Alan wake covered their eyes in pain?." The game has 3 weapons. A rinky dink revolver, a boring shot gun, and a sleepy rifle. So combat really is the SHINNING aspect of this game. The graphics are good, and the only thing I think the game does really well make you want and feel like surviving from the horror. For a survival horror fan, I can recommend, but if you want fun combat, like Dead Space and RE games offer, then play dead space agian or buy one of the REmakes on XBLA like RE 4 or Veronica.
