IGN:Alan Wake's American Nightmare Review

IGN:There were plenty of unanswered questions when Remedy announced a follow-up to their widely loved Xbox 360 game, Alan Wake. The change in setting to the American Southwest from the densely wooded Northwest, the stronger focus on action, and the fact that the game would be an XBLA game instead of a retail release raised a few eyebrows amongst fans.

well, at least it's cheap and not full retail.

That's because it's episodic and a 8.0 is a good score. I just fear (like other episodic approaches) it doesn't deteriorate into nothing. It's sad. Alan Wake is one of the best titles on the 360, IMO. Hope for the best...

Do you know something we don't ? Remedy haven't said it's episodic at all.

MariaHelFutura4816d ago

That's strange. I swear I heard they were making this episodic.

Can't wait to download this one!

FaSCoRP4816d ago

damn, I still have to finish the 2 DLC from the previous one ! :)

PetitPiPi4816d ago

Shouldn`t take you very long. Awesome game.

Did anyone else have problems with the dodge button in the original or did I just suck?

I was hoping the reviewer would have mentioned Remedy fixing that problem.

I am upset they put the review out so early because now I REALLY want to play it!

Rampaged Death4816d ago

I never had a problem with dodging.

wiggles4816d ago

I guess I just sucked then lol

Alan Wake 2 is Where the Franchise Needs to go

Welcome back Link Cable Gaming fans, by far one of my favourite surprises of the Game Awards was the surprise announcement of Alan Wake 2. Alan Wake developed by Remedy Entertainment, and released in May 2010 on the Xbox 360, Alan Wake 2 will finally be brought back. While we were treated just this year to the surprise Alan Wake Remastered earlier in October 2021, or Alan Wake’s American Nightmare in February 2012, fans never got a true sequel. What will the future of the Alan Wake franchise look like?

Perfect! a sequel that will remind me of the smell of mildew and damp coffee grounds with a side of deadly premonition.

NecrumOddBoy1211d ago

Where else would the franchise go? Seems like a sure thing. American Nightmare should be in the remake though.

Zahiar1211d ago

You know I was thinking alternatives right?
For all it could have been, you know how the sequel market is sometimes, weird spin - offs, spiritual successors, reimagining, a VR walking simulator (bleh) and all that.
I like the idea of an evolved sequel way more

Zahiar1210d ago

I guess Alan Wake got a redesign lol.
Because I thought it was Jared Leto lol

pietro12121210d ago

It’s the same actor from the first game

My most hyped project of this gen.
