It looks pretty. Maybe it'll play alright as well this time, was so disappointed by the original.

Duracell batteries this time?. Boost mobile phones?. Hopefully he traded in that lame Lincon for a Dodge Power Wagon.

this is how they are treating one of the best games avalible on the 360, this game should be a full release and i reckon there e3 would have looked a whole lot better with the announcement of alan wake 2. DAMN YOU MICROSOFT

I think I'll pass and see if they'll include this into Alan Wake 2.

Could of been a great IP for you guys Microsoft, don't see why you had to give it a downloadable title. It hasn't even had a sequel yet. <sigh>

The developers will probably gauge the criticisms and the fan response on how to shape AW2.

I enjoyed part 1, the episode style was fantastic, but the gameplay got way too monotonous.

Sucks because i realy want to play this but im not connected to live so im not going to be able to play it =/
whole reason i got an xbox was for alan wake,love that game its so underrated.Hope they release a physical copy in the future.

i love Alan Wake but i dont support digital download , i want my fisical disc in my collection

im going to give alan wake a rent ive been hearing good things about it.

this makes me legitimately upset.

such a great franchise, from a great developer gets this sort of treatment.

way to have faith in one of your only remaining good exclusive IPs.

Gunstringer started life off as an xbla title, hopefully this too will make the jump.

Trolls not losing any time doing what they do.

I'm sorry, but since when did Digital become bad? If you "concerned" commenters knew anything, you'd know that this is a stop-gap title meant to bring in new players into the fold whilst giving us old timers fresh content to hold over for Alan Wake 2.

Not to mention that this keeps costs low for both Remedy AND Microsoft and allows them to recoup a greater amount of costs than they would with a retail disc.

But I forgot where we are, and the fact of the matter is that no matter what MS does, despite keeping on with Remedy and giving us more of an IP that is arguably one of the best on the platform right now, all you'll do is find nonexistent issues to argue about.

You can be sure that MS is going to market this game carefully like they do with their crown jewel XBLA titles.

So this isn't Alan Wake 2? so this must be another episode-ish type of game, right?

Love Alan Wake, can't wait for this.

Suddenly Alan wake has alot of ps3 owning fans. . .weird isn't it? Everybody's concerned about how the ip is being treated. When the proper sequel gets an announcement all this concern goes out the window and its back to hating. Typical.

Downloadable only?? Why? BTW looks amazing

-I'm wondering why Mr.Wake decided on the early 90's grunge style, comfortable yes, but i'm a little confused. he must have lost his clothes from the first game, or he's taken up full on residency at Bright Falls - Alan Wake has that special place, like twin peaks, it's totally fucked and that it why i love it, and you can only discuss it with people who have actually played it!, not just read about it!.. New Downloadable Alan Wake is better than no Alan Wake! :)

although its non-ending and bulls**t DLC left a bitter taste in my mouth once proceedings wrapped up. I'm trying to muster up some excitement for this next installment, but knowing it's not a true sequel and just some downloadable-only title is seriously taking the wind out of my sails. Can't help but feel Remedy are being held back from executing their own true vision of how the Alan Wake saga should unfold.

I'll take a downloadable follow-up with a ton of heart in it over a thousand soullessly pumped-out AAA sequels. And this one just happens to look really pretty too. Definitely keeping my eye on this.

If a downloadable game isn't "good enough" for you guys, that's your problem. If that market weren't around, there wouldn't be ANY kind of follow-up. I'm grateful we're getting anything and I'm sure the developers will put all they got into it.

Not to mention, a lower budget could mean we won't be seeing all that product placement. That's okay in my book.

Can't wait for all the "When will Alan Wake up" comments to come back. I really do miss the open zone.

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
