Polish gamingsite Gaminator has managed to get their hands on the famous Alan Wake. Check yourself if the new Remedy's game is really worth all the hype that gathered around it. Don't even need to mention that this is one of the first reviews of Alan Wake, not only in Poland.

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "All in all, it’s not hard to see why Alan Wake has received a bit of a cult following (there’s that famous foreshadowing again). It’s a title that blends themes and gameplay, while pushing the limits of storytelling by putting stories within stories and letting you read those stories before you get to that part in… the story. It has flaws, to be sure - the gameplay side can’t quite keep up with the rest of its ambitions - but overall it’s a great game that stands out among its peers and is undeniably… one for the books."

Remedy has announced a new Alan Wake book and more as part of their anniversary celebration.

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 $240.00 assuming usd for a bunch on unactivated game codes.
I still don't understand why I guess cause there's not a physical version and she wanted something for a collection or art project.
O good Polish review, now i can sleep and feel safe.
We had this f@#$ embargo until 11:00 AM today.
Good score. but lower than what I expected. I will have fun playing it with my friend that's for sure. we are currently playing forza 3. too bad I don't own x360.
for a game that took 6 years, good is not enough it should be great!
I agree - say a game takes 4 years to make, the first year the game is full of new ideas and the graphics are jaw dropping. Then as time passses other games have the same ideas or maybe better and the graphics start to age.
