While widely talked about in 2010, and into 2011, Alan Wake was one of those games that everyone wanted to try out, but never got around to until much later. Mike D of GoozerNation takes a look at this game, and offers a bit of love for a series that didn't exactly do well initially.
EA senior staff has been investigated for sexual misconduct involving female coworkers, and these said people have been named publicly.
Aye just call Phil, i mean he somehow made Bobby Kotick's scandal disappear and gave him a few million dollar high five on the way out.
EA about to go down like Activision and then Phil saves the day saying.this is good for the industry and consolidation will help create competition. /s.
What's up with all these horny creeps. You gon be horny, fine. Just not at work take care of that shit before you go in. Rub one out if you have to. Don't be a creep at all. ESPECIALLY at work. But don't be one AT ALL.
"it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed. [...] The victim still has to work with the people that harassed her."
Yep, EA is disgusting.
EA has announced it will engage in a shareholder-pleasing share buyback program just a couple of months after mass layoffs at the studio.
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.
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? 🙄
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.
Amazing game. Go out and check it out if you're up for a good story based game.
I still need to play this game, it was one of the ones I had no time to play last year. Might pick it up when I'm getting my 3DS.
I haven't played Alan Wake but I wonder whether Remedy talking about Stephen King (which many of the game's buyers might never have read or regard as particularly classic to survival horror games in a Lovecraft way) or about the game as being like a TV serial (just makes you think 'cheaper than a movie then') or the punnish name of the game itself put some people off.
But it was probably more to do with a paucity of screenshots which mostly looked similar to each other and reports of the linearity of the game (when we were looking forward to this putting other next gen games to shame) and similarity of the enemies to each other.
Still, despite all of this it sounds like a solid game and sometimes seems to look graphically stunning so I would like to play it and a sequel. But I would like to see more daylight scenes than I have read about please and for it to have some looseness rather than just a tight objective nature.
