Alan Wake - Xbox 360
Product Replacement Plan
Features
- Intense psychological thriller: Alan Wake delivers a deeply psychological and finely crafted plot that raises the bar for storytelling in video games. The riveting story of Alan Wake is propelled by a movie-like atmosphere, compelling situations, memorable characters, and real-time pacing. Remedy has a record of creating and developing games with unique cinematic presentation and exceptionally high production values.
- Light as a combat element: As Wake journeys deeper into the mystery of Bright Falls, the shadows close in around him. When darkness descends, light becomes his only ally as he fights his way to daybreak. This poses a severe problem for Alan Wake since his enemies seemingly gain strength from the shadows, and before long, light itself becomes his greatest ally. Players must skillfully combine their use of light with more conventional weapons to stand a chance.
- Realistic, interactive environment: Set in the town of Bright Falls, the hyper-detailed environments of the Pacific Northwest play an important role, as even the change in daylight and weather will profoundly affect the characters and enemies in Alan Wake. The game's advanced rendering engine provides amazingly realistic environments that bring this world to detailed life—from the lush forest of evergreen trees to the quaint small-town buildings and streets. The world of Alan Wake is alive and real.
- Episodic narrative: The mission-based structure of Alan Wake creates an episodic narrative similar to a deeply structured dramatic television series, such as Twin Peaks and X-Files. As the episodes progress, gameplay evolves to introduce new elements and characters, escalating the level of threat and action in the game.

Simple to play. Fantastic scenery and story. The scale of it is mind blowing! Grateful to God for showing me this game on You Tube. Sale had ALL needed: manual etc. Good, fair price too ~ gamer since 1977
This game is so unique that there aren’t very much games like it.
The way this title dives into the story and bridges the plot together as the game progresses is brilliant and almost feels like a really good movie. Not filled with jump scares but this game doesn't require them in order for it to still make you feel uneasy with the way they are incorporated throughout the game. Glad I tried it out, worth every penny.
Alan Wake is about an author who, through the mysteries of a strange town, accidentally writes a horror story to life. It is filled with good characters which kept me coming back, thrilling sequences that were both chilling and exciting, and an overall fascinating and dark story with a mystery format that is uncommon for most games. With some mild language and a few scary scenes, I would recommend the game to anyone 10 and up who is looking for a fun, thrilling game to play in the dark, and still be able to sleep afterwards. 8/10
I got Alan Wake with my Quantum Break pre-order, which were the first two games I had ever gotten from Remedy Entertainment. Quantum Break was good, it has an engaging story and great gameplay. Alan Wake is better. The story-telling in Alan Wake is superb, hooking you from the start with mystery and horror, and once they have you they don't let go. The fighting is an interesting concept, the way you have to systematically take out each enemy, which at times requires patience, fast feet, and a level head. The plot itself has lots of twists, and rewards those who stick their nose in every crook and cranny, finding little bits of lore that further flesh out the story as a whole, and the little tidbits are introduced in just the right moments where they are clues to a mystery that you puzzle out, then have it confirmed or debunked a little while later. Fighting the enemies can be repetitive, on several occasions I couldn't help but think of Destiny's "hold this spot and survive 3 waves" bullcrap, but those moments aren't as obnoxious and the settings are more interesting. While the facial expressions on the characters look a little off, the details put in the environment are awesome; when I was playing I really felt like I was there walking through a small town, with all its quirky events, signs, local radio, and people. I have to agree with the critics over the ending: it was a little anti-climactic and was a serious cliffhanger that left me thinking. "Wait..! That's it!" Still, this is hardly something that should deter anybody from trying it, and in a way the ending makes you hungry for Alan Wake 2 all the more. Overall, I consider this game a must play for anybody who hasn't tried it. If you like thrills, mystery, and gripping plot, try out this game, it won't disappoint.
