Britbox: Alan Wake Preview

Britbox writes: "This game has been in development since 2005 and Max Payne's developer Remedy is only just starting to show off their accomplishments. Due for release in May, Alan Wake is a psychological action thriller made exclusively for Xbox 360. For the last 5 years, Remedy has been determined to bring us one of the biggest third person action games to release in 2010. From what we saw, they seem to be delivering on that promise."

" All these things encourage the player to explore and if it wasn’t worth it for the collection rewards on their own then it must be worth it for the stunning visuals."

I said the other day in a different Alan Wake article that I'm going to walk around and just look at the senary and use the game as an HD screensaver.

It looks like a "Myst" game, only in this case you can actually walk around in the sceneries. I hope you can go swimming. That water looks great.

Alan Wake has just been added to my games to buy list. Something about that screen shot in day light screams quality. And this guy is saying the gameplay and exploration is good to go. I say, I am in!

I have only bought the collectors edition of 2 games this gen, Gears 1 and Forza motorsport 2. Alan Wake is going to be the 3rd.

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.

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

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

Knightofelemia434d 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.

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? 🙄

Rynxie433d ago

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.

Rynxie433d ago

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

Asplundh433d ago

This is Alan Wake 1, it had physical copies.

A thermos is upending the Alan Wake community

Remedy has Alan Wake merch on sale, including a pretty blue thermos. Unfortunately, things haven’t gone according to plan, and many players who want a thermos find themselves without one, though it does appear that Remedy is attempting to fix things. Nevertheless, it has resulted in a lot of upset, illustrating just how much the thermos means to Alan Wake fans.
