Hands-On Preview: 10 Reasons Alan Wake is Love at First Play

"I'll stop close of calling Alan Wake a perfect game as the lip sync with dialogue could be tighter and I suffered two short instances of freezing during the opening titles that thankfully resolved themselves. Truthfully, who cares? There is so much to like after only one episode of Alan Wake that it pains me to not be engrossed in episode two right now."

Excellent preview, I can't wait for this game.

Biggest5115d ago

Is that the same Natsu and Alpha that comment on N4G making those outrageous comments after the "preview"?

I may have missed where he said "These are in no particular order". I don't see how the #1 reason for any game to be good is the fact that light is good.

Natsu X FairyTail5115d ago (Edited 5115d ago )

Dude. That'S not me making these comments on that website. It'S probably a N4G ps3 fanboy who did that. I'm not stupid to the point of saying those things. You see why I dont like Some of the fanboys on n4g? Because they do stupid stuff like that. I never had any problems with sony and it'S console.Only some people here.

PlainOldGamer5115d ago

I'll save some people some time.
Reasons 1-10: Silent Hill Rip-off.

Want a real psychological thriller? Then go play one of the great Silent Hill games. Available for virtually all current consoles.

Pumbli5115d ago

Natsu, sorry, I have to ask, what's with the capital "S"s after '?

Venatus-Deus5115d ago

LOL... they done the same with Alpha-Male22...

"This is the game to rule them all Japanese lowlifes we Americans are the future we make wars even on videogame and of course we win. We are the superior race Americans have the only real videogame system and the best games ever, Japanese can keep making rice for us."

hamoor5115d ago

I can't wait for this game to finally come out but they are starting to overhype it.

Inside_out5115d ago

yet another great preview...looks like Remedy out did themselves with this title...kudos to Remedy and M$ for sticking it out....Alan Awesome...May 18...Alan awakes....

Slimshadyn5115d ago

Agreed, its getting over hyped. The game is looking good, but calling it nearly perfect before you play the whole game is overhyping it. I can't wait to play it though.

Natsu X FairyTail5115d ago (Edited 5115d ago )

Wow. I cant believe that there's people Wack enough to go on that Website and write stupid comments under my Name. I swear you guys have no life.

on Topic: I'll be getting this game on day 1.

hamoor5115d ago

come on you didn't figure it out?
he is "biggest" the one who made these comments i mean why he would read the comments about a game he don't like?

8thnightvolley5115d ago

halojunkie5115d ago

GBX PETE5115d ago

@Venatus-Deus typical yank Ball Bag its douches like you that give americans a bad name because of stupid racist comments

hamoor5115d ago

do you know what " means?
"you are stupid" sorry thats not me am just quoting XD

AngryHippo5115d ago (Edited 5115d ago )

.....he is quoting what someone else wrote, not saying it himself.

On topic, really looking forward to Alan Wake, it looks like its going to be a great game thats well worth the wait.

Venatus-Deus5115d ago

Dude... I'm British. The quote was from their site. Someone is using AM-22 user name.

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.

gigoran814d ago

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

Tacoboto13d ago

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

Knightofelemia14d 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.

Chocoburger13d ago

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.

Profchaos13d ago

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.
