So its just a chapter? What ever it is i can't freaking wait. One of my top 7 games.

zeousPP35304d ago (Edited 5304d ago )

Agreed, even if it is not number 2, this will hopefully be as god as the original game

PetitPiPi5304d ago

I Loved Alan Wake so much I played it three times to get the full 1500 gamerscore. I could've easily played it a forth time.

Any game release envolving Alan Wake is a day one buy for me.

Nooooo

Why....I want a full retail game

Well sorry but I think I'll pass...shame could of been a great franchise aswell

maniacmayhem5304d ago

What's the difference if it's full retail or not?

You can download full retail games on 360 already. Just because its dl only doesn't mean it will be anything less.

...hopefully.

TheBlackMask5304d ago

"Just because its dl only doesn't mean it will be anything less."

Really.....are you joking

Course theres a difference, it means you can have a full retail game compared to a downloadable title which probably won't even last you for 4-5 hours. It will be short and at the end of the day it will just seem pointless.

Theres a massive difference between a retail/downloadable title

Do you think Uncharted 2 would of had so much content if it was a downloadable title.......nope.

Rashonality5304d ago

you're comment is like saying
"there's nothing wrong with a straight to DVD release for a movie, Alot of great movies are on DVD"

it's not a confident move, and i hate to see it done to great games.

--Onilink--5304d ago

@Oblivion and GTA IV DLC would like to disagree with your comment...

There is absolutely no reason why a DL game will be short or less than what a retail version could be

Even more, the reason we are not getting a full retail release is because of lack of support for the 1st game, and your way to react to this is.....lack of support for this new game??? seriously??? is that how you expect them to make Alan Wake 2??

doublebass25304d ago

for the record ,for some comments below,Alan Wake was a below 3gb game..most dvd space taken by the cinematics,and it lasted for at least 10 hours..If you dont believe,check this

and for a 540p game was stellar,although i hope they raise resolution textures on this one

PetitPiPi5304d ago

According to OXM, AW2 is being held back for the next Xbox.

TheDivine5304d ago

I hope so. Thats one game that would make me buy a next gen xbox. I hope ms are doing that because this is one game that most everyone loved and got crazy praise, i think it was even time's goty. One of the best games ive ever played personally, its uncharted quality in the storytelling.

maniacmayhem5304d ago (Edited 5304d ago )

So when i go on xbox live and their Games on Demand section and see Enslaved, Crysis, Frontlines, crysis 2, Resident Evil 4 HD, Bulletstorm...you mean these games are half of what its suppose to be!?!

The point i was making was a full game can be download only. There's nothing stopping it.

And yes U2 would of had all the content if it was dl only. Why wouldn't it? Is there a sony restriction on how much a game content should have when its dl only?
If there is i'm not aware of it.

TheBlackMask5304d ago

Yeah they are in a way because you don't actually have that game as a pysical copy, you don't own it in a way and if anyone was going to buy them they would of done so. Fact is this isn't a retail game on XBLA, it's a downloadable title of Alan Wake meaning it probably won't be as special as what AW2 could of been

guigsy5304d ago

Get in, Alan Wake is one of my favorite 360 games. Didn't think this was going to happen after they didn't announce anything at E3.

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.

gigoran8757d ago

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

jznrpg169d ago

People sometimes call Wal-Mart Wally World including myself

Tacoboto756d 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

Knightofelemia757d 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.

Chocoburger757d 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? 🙄

Rynxie757d ago

Most likely she wanted to resell a few or most of them. However, it was a too good to be true situation.

Profchaos757d 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.

Rynxie757d ago

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

Asplundh756d ago

This is Alan Wake 1, it had physical copies.
