Alan Wake II Review - IGN

Alan Wake II is a superb survival horror sequel that makes the cult-classic original seem like little more than a rough first draft by comparison.

Nyxus227d ago

Great score, still hoping for a physical release...

darthv72227d ago

Same. Id love a nice CE to put next to my original CE.

Nyxus227d ago

Yeah I got the CE for the original as well, the one that looks like a book.

darthv72227d ago

@nyxus... it would be awesome if they did the same design as a follow-up book to the first.

-Foxtrot227d ago

Yup

Looks great, impressions are great, scores are great

Still going to patiently wait for a physical release

It will happen…eventually

ModsDoBetter227d ago

Yup.
Physical is the only way I buy this.

No matter what BS they feed us right now saying no plans for a physical release, I reckon it'll happen eventually.

-Foxtrot227d ago

Totally

They just don’t want people to hang on, they want the launch sales

LoveSpuds227d ago

Yeah, there is absolutely no way this doesn't get a physical, they'd be leaving money on the table.

I will wait em out, but its a dumb position to take by Remedy. I'd buy this day one physical, instead I'll wait for a deep, deep discount if they do stick with a digital only release.

SyntheticForm227d ago

Oh hell yes.

SyntheticForm227d ago

Overly acronymized, but I like it. I suspect an agree is coming your way.

Si-Fly227d ago

Haha, TBH I’m hyped AF for this potential GOTY too 👊🏻

andy85227d ago

Be lucky to make the final shortlist in reality. Been such an amazing year for games

Crows90227d ago

The usual tough reviewers are giving it a high score. Very interested. Glad to see remedy did it again. There's definitely a few contenders for Game of the Year now.

Alan Wake II Is Finally Getting A Physical Release

The sequel was notably a digital-only release when it launched last year.

anast1d 10h ago

HA! It's little late, but it might bring up those numbers.

OhReginald18h ago

So you would rather have a physcial edition that doesn't include the day 1 patches and bug fixes Than a complete updated version of the game?

andy8516h ago

Yes? Literally. Why would I want to wait nearly a year for the sake of downloading patches

shinoff21838h ago

I'll take the most up to date physical. I've got no issue with having to play things on day 1 most of the time.

isarai17h ago

Nah, was a dumb move to launch with no physical. But I've seen MANY people including myself waiting for a physical release of this game. Already pre-ordered mine.

gold_drake1d 10h ago

its about time

but ... i already saw limited run games selling it.

if there are others selling it too, i will get it, but if not, hard pass.

Petebloodyonion18h ago

Limited Run only makes the Collector edition.
The deluxe edition will be available everywhere

isarai17h ago

This, just pre-ordered mine from GameStop

ActualWhiteMan18h ago

Wont buy that shit til it’s on sale on steam.

TheColbertinator18h ago

Sounds good if they get the game on the disc itself not just a disc that sends you online to download it.

CobraKai17h ago

Now im interested. Looks like i gotta just wait patiently for Hellblade 2 um too.
