Eric from The Game Que pens his reivew of the new Alan Wa DLC.
From the article:
"When last we saw Alan Wake he was journeying through an all-consuming darkness with is sanity held in a fragile balance. In “The Writer” the second DLC installment for the critically acclaimed Xbox 360 exclusive Alan Wake Alan delves deeper into the rabbit hole in hopes of reclaiming his greatest weapon….his mind. Will this new DLC shed some light on the continuing plot or does it just leave you in the dark?"
CVG: Epic Games' most famous franchise, Gears Of War, may be hugely reliant on its cover system - but they'll be no such mechanic in its new shooter Bulletstorm
As previously reported on CVG, it has an admirably ridiculous story - with a drunken space-based rivalry at its heart
However, those expecting a Gears-style cover-shoot-cover-shoot effort can think again
I hav 2 admit, BulletStorms lookin SWEET!!! Epic hurry up and show sum gameplay - STAT
Not sure this is good for me. I much prefer a shooter with a good cover system over your typical stand around and shoot system.
We'll see, I guess.
Excellent. Then we won't have to worry about taking cover, just shooting things up.
Just as the game's name intended.
The two expansion packs for Remedy Entertainment's 2010 Xbox 360 thriller Alan Wake are now free. You can grab The Signal and The Writer on Xbox Live right now at no cost.
I think they do require Alan wake. On the Xbox site it says "This add-on works with Alan wake".
American nightmare is the only one that's independent.
You are correct, Spicelicka, both free episodes are add ons to Alan Wake. American Nightmare is the only stand alone. Interesting thing I noticed while looking the content up though... There's a 6 episode, live action prequel called Bright Falls on the marketplace I didn't know they made. I'm thinking about ckecking it out but I want to read into it a bit more.
Cool does anyone know when they will send codes out for those who preordered quantum break I still havent got mine and want to play american nightmare after I am done with it. Quantum break has been great so far
american nightmare took 2weeks after I preorderd QB and Alan Wake is 7-10 days after release of QB
Did that game do well? I remember playing it at a friends and being so surprised that it doesn't have more recognition.
Telling the story of a writer plagued by his own demons, Alan Wake delivered both an enticing story and an innovative gameplay mechanic: the use of light as a weapon. The main game followed Wake's quest to rescue his wife from the darkness, while the first DLC episode, The Signal, chronicled Wake's battle for his own sanity. The second installment, The Writer, expands on the events seen in The Signal, all the while keeping the experience fresh and the story moving forward.
