Alan Wake Review - Awesome/10

It's been a long time coming, but nearly two years after it's initial release Alan Wake has finally made its way to the PC. Originally touted as being an open world interactive horror novel, Alan Wake was met with great anticipation by Xbox 360 gamers. The beautifully rendered environment looks even better on the PC, but Liam Dean debates whether this is enough to push an essentially linear experience into "classic" game territory. -

JUST bought this on the PC (Steam sale, of course) a few days ago and I can't believe how good it is. The only thing I wasn't a huge fan of were the product placements: I mean really Duracell?

It's pretty fitting for a game based around flashlights though.

Having a branded battery doesn't bother me, had it have been on every loading screen THAT would have bothered me.

I don't get why people say that's a bad thing. I personally like it for me at least it adds realism to the game like wow a real product in a weird way it makes the game more real for me.
