Great score. I think I'll wait for a price drop like I do with everything else. How long is this game? I hear a mixture of 30 hours and less than 20 hours. I feel like Mod Nation this month anyway, but this is definitely a very good title to help build up my 360 library.

is gonna rent this, we gonna try to beat it in one sitting.

got my CE paid off. Looking forward to this after the disappointment of Silent Hill Homecoming.

I still can't believe its finally about to come out. Five years I've been waiting for this game. Very nice to see all the positive reviews.

"Much has been made of Alan Wake's less-than HD resolution, but the bottom line is that it's a stunning looking title. No game released so far this generation features lighting effects more impressive, or so much going on. At times, with the wind blowing, smoke in the air, objects flying around, flares alight and enemies coming at you, there'd be an argument for this being one of the most visually striking games ever released. It's that impressive."

Impressive accolades right their. I really wanna play this but I can't purchase another xbox360 for awhile so this is on hold for me.

Good looking game. It appears to play well too. There are so many games coming out I am losing sleep. I am still having a blast with GOW3!

Man I cannot remember a time when I actually had this many choices on consoles/games the last 2 gens. For any gen for that matter.

Well after reading through a few reviews I figured 'what the hell' and pre-ordered this. Looks very good and should keep me in my chair over a nice relaxing in.

good review

Sounds like he was more impressed with the production values, which in a cinematic game is good. The lip synch and animations take away from it a bit; the resolution is also disappointing. Game is fun i assume..but hardly groundbreaking.

Who was begon about "better grafichs than Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2" ?
So stop calling somone trolling he has a point about that becouse the most people compare with Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2 and that's call men (HYPE) So has right about that.

On-topic

It's a good score, but i have to wait before play this game, i really love the atmosphere.

I'm glad the game is good, it would have been a real blow for Remedy if it had bombed after taking so long to make.

I wont be getting it right away thou, think I'll wait for the bargain bin or a dry spellI just cant pass up Red Dead Redemption for this. RRD is hopefully going to be my personal GotY.

Great score, was expecting higher though

1st day buy in my collection.

renting!!!!!!!!!

we have been waiting for this for a long time. hopefully it will deliver. cant wait for may 18 :)

New set up same fanboy bullcrap

can't wait till thursday here in australia. Bummer i have to work, maybe i'll have a sickie

The game looks like a good next gen Silent Hill, nothing more, nothing less.

Now i love Silent Hill games but the people who were hailing Alan Wake as some kind of video games revolution look very silly now.

Like all the games that Microsoft hypes I am sure that Alan Wake is a good game but not an epic game.First of all I doubt Microsoft and their cronies could ever come up with a coherent story that lasts a whole game.Also I know that the bias reviewers who pretend to be on all sides but give Xbox 360 games a free ride will ignore any plot holes, graphical hiccups, repetitiveness or lack of imagination and claim that the game is near perfect. Last of all i can bet you that when all is said and done everyone will run out and buy Alan Wake and argue to hell and back how it is better then Uncharted 2, Gow 3, GT%, Infamous, Mario Kart, Zelda and every game in existence. So like i said, good game but not epic or anywhere near it. Just a game that functions well but breaks no new ground in story or gameplay.

Great score

You wouldn't though, would you?

Why waste money on a game where Alan Wake isn’t in it for a good part of the game. Also, since you don’t own the game and they can cut you off at anytime why would you buy that many. Unless she was going to resell them for a profit, charity give away, or something like that.

" two boxes of Alan Wake download codes" On Ebay no less. That's something you should should be downright embarrased to admit. That's dumb as F. Two boxes of Alan Wake download codes Achievement Unlocked.

All stores have game code cards. None are active until scanned and paid for. Why would she think the cards are active? Idiot.

Sucker

Card No.1....Doh
Card No.2....Doh
Card No.3....Doh
.........................
Card No.4....Doh

What an idiot, the cards don't activate unless you scan them at a register. Did she really think stores would leave thousands of dollars on kiosks for the taking? LOL
