Remedy: Consider Alan Wake DLC as "Christmas special"

Forget Doctor Who and Top of the Pops: the one Christmas special you should be watching (playing?) this year is Alan Wake."When you get Alan Wake in your hands, you can think of this as season one," head of franchise at Remedy, Oskari Hakkinen, has told Edge. "We'll have a satisfactory and conclusive ending, but we'll leave some doors open: we've planned for a bigger story arc."

I'm not a fan of Christmas, more of a Easter kind of guy.

Gamer7l5140d ago

...not a fan of the 360 or MS...everyone knows that. Which begs the question: "Why did you bother posting?"

Simple...just another excuse to troll.

They might as well yell "NATAL!!!1!"

Gamer7l5140d ago

...this has NOTHING to do with Natal. You fail.

mrv3215140d ago

Except for the fact NATAL cannot be added to retail games unless you re-download them from XBL which would cost Microsoft a lot.

If it's allready in the code then there's no problem.

Michael-Jackson5140d ago

Won't happen if it flops.

Alan Wake will get a new fwash light for Christmas...who cares.

Monk3y5140d ago

Remedy got $ signs on theyre eyes that for sure :]

i hope they just dont kinda like cut half of the game away so they can sell it with DLC.

jay25140d ago

We might also need a 5 year reminder when it comes out in the 720's second year of life.

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.

wait, that place is real? national lampoon wasn't kidding?

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

Knightofelemia13d ago

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? 🙄

Rynxie13d ago

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.

Rynxie13d ago

No, most likely to resell. However, she ended up getting screwed.

Asplundh13d ago

This is Alan Wake 1, it had physical copies.

A thermos is upending the Alan Wake community

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.
