Alan Wake in Glorious 8-bit Action

Ripten writes:

"I saw Alan Wake in 8 bit…and it was glorious! Check out Alan Wake in an 8-bit demake thanks to Ant ti Apina's video. Yeah, I know, not the most exciting thing in the world.

It’s a slow news Sunday, I’m drinking beers and watching football- Gimme a break."

pretty cool shit right there

Indeed, Pretty cool Shit? Yeah, I guess so. :/

Is it just me, or does this look horrible? It's following in the shadow of games like Halo 2600 and the Left 4 Dead demake, both of which were creative and fun. But this one is just a survival mode. The graphics look ugly (and totally not 8-bit) and they couldn't even make the effort to make an 8-bit logo. All they did was pixelate the actual logo.

I noticed that. The flashlight looked way too advanced for something like a Sega Saturn let alone an 8bit game. It shoulda been a yellow triangle or something

Upgrade it to 16 bit and you've got the regular Alan Wake

A Late Look: Alan Wake

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."

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?

People sometimes call Wal-Mart Wally World including myself

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

Knightofelemia756d 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? 🙄

Rynxie756d 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.

Rynxie756d ago

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

Asplundh755d ago

This is Alan Wake 1, it had physical copies.
