The Alan Wake forums are quite active and discuss a wide range of subjects that will interest any Alan Wake onlooker. Here are excerpts of some of the most intense discussions and the official answers to those questions by "MarkusRMD", their popular public figure, who does most of the official answering for the game on the forums.
Alan Wake, from Max Payne and Control creator Remedy, is a horror classic, prompting one player to buy 4,000 copies that don’t even work.
Kind of a goody story...
On a serious note, that is why I try activating gift cards asap. It's happened to me where the store didnt scan it right where the card was unusuable. Happened at Wally World.
I just bought two of the MonsterVerse Godzilla movies on 4K - both had digital copies expiring in 2023. Both were actually expired.
I'd be surprised but it's WB, of course they'd actually expire them
Usually most of those redemption card have an expiry date on them. If they expired all buyer did was buy recycled paper. And some of those codes are country locked to certain countries. I buy a card from the States I can't use it in Canada.
Dumb and silly story. She wasted her money for no reason.
Is it really that hard to go to Steam or GOG. She spent $240, when its currently 70% off on GOG, and only costs $4.49.
Gee, I wonder, should I spend $240 on eBay, or $4.49 on GOG? 🙄
Most likely she wanted to resell a few or most of them. However, it was a too good to be true situation.
So in short she paid $240.00 assuming usd for a bunch on unactivated game codes.
I still don't understand why I guess cause there's not a physical version and she wanted something for a collection or art project.
Alan Wake 2 continues the writer's story, 13 years later.
Remedy has Alan Wake merch on sale, including a pretty blue thermos. Unfortunately, things haven’t gone according to plan, and many players who want a thermos find themselves without one, though it does appear that Remedy is attempting to fix things. Nevertheless, it has resulted in a lot of upset, illustrating just how much the thermos means to Alan Wake fans.
"it’s still quoted by many respected developers as being more expensive and slower to develop for than Xbox360."
"We have absolutely nothing against PS3, far from it, and in fact we are still a registered Sony PS3 developer. It was a big decision for us to go with a console first party publisher with Alan Wake, but looking at it in hindsight I still think it was the right one for the game and for the company. We get a better game for you to enjoy and have less technological risks while making it."
At least one developer dares to openly speak about cons of developing to PS3
Yeah, basically it was a better deal for them to go with M.Soft. Im so looking forward to Alan Wake it just sounds fantastic.
i think this game will do a bioshock and come to ps3
Its published by Microsoft who basically are funding there development. As nice as it would be for it to come to Ps3 its never going to happen. Sorry.
Wasn't the droids saying Xbox360 has reached it's limit and can't be pushed further WELL Alan Wake say's Otherwise you bunch of f*ckun losers. Alan Wake Sh*t's all over Heavy rain and the Cell Processor.
