1UP: Alan Wake Preview

After more than five years in development, Alan Wake is -- finally -- almost finished. And while developer Remedy won't confirm the heavily rumored May 2010 release date -- sticking to the less fun "Spring 2010" -- they are now ready to reveal new details about some of the game's key features, such as how the light and dark mechanics work.

Hope it turns out good, but kinda wish it had stayed open world.

hoops5294d ago

If you want a game fully open world with those type of visuals....buy a PC.

Let the hate for this game begin...............
Because it's not on someones syetm of love........
And when GOD3 comes out, the hate will also begin because that game is not on someones system of love.

raztad5294d ago

Why are you expecting the hate to begin?

Flamebait articles are the attractors for hate. Something like "Alan Wake puts every other game to shame" would do the trick.

Solidus187-SCMilk5294d ago (Edited 5294d ago )

this game looks interesting. Im not super hyped about it but it is defiantly on my must try list. Too bad this will turn into a hate fest for all the people who cant play it.

Get prepared to see some crying from people who cant play this. If only the mods did there job, this site would have actual discussion about games and not consoles.

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

Knightofelemia50d 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? 🙄

Rynxie50d 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.

Rynxie50d ago

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

Asplundh50d 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.
