Remedy: "If we intended it to be that, we'd have named it that."
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.
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
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? 🙄
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.
Cool, although I wasn't a massive fan of the first one I still felt it had serious potential to become a great series, hopefully there will be a true sequel after this XBLA game.
Alan Wake was a lot of fun. Great, great atmosphere. I'm really not concerned what they call it as long as the quality present in Alan Wake is throughout this XBLA game. I really have no doubts that it will be.
It might be a prequel.
Since MS doesn't have many first party devs it'd make sense if alan wake 2 was held off till next gen maybe as a launch title or something.
I still need to make my way through the first. But ever since i moved and packed up my 360 i havent unpacked anything except my PS3. This is THE game that i would do it for though. Ive seen it in action and it looks really good. Hmm... maybe ill have to do that soon.
