Not so bad, not so good

Average game by any possible definition. Alan Wake isn't bad, actually it has good combat and a rather good story, but nothing to write home about. The enemies aren't very varied and you'll find yourself fighting the same 2 enemies type over and over. Nor very varied are the game situations, for what it matters. The story is also a mixed bag, never really exciting despite being enjoyable enough. It also fails as a survival horror because it's not very scary, when compared to masterpieces of the genre like Resident Evil and Silent Hill. It's more of paranormal thriller than a horror. I played it to the very end despite being bored hoping for at least a satisfying final, but the game ends with an annoying cliffhanger and no sequel is planned due to the poor sales, so not even the story is a good reason to play the game. A thing that bugged me a lot is that the setting is interesting and original enough to make you interested in exploring the surroundings, and most of the game is pretty open and lets you explore a lot, but you'll find absolutely NOTHING by exploring. I've heard this is due to the fact the game was initially planned as a MMO game, and Remedy changed the scope of the game on-the-fly. Anyway, whatever the reason behind it, the result is that everything looks so empty and boring. All in all, this game is nothing but a big pile of wasted potential, which i find even more sad then a completely bad game.

poetry of fear

To my mind, one of the best narrative games ever made. Alan Wake is a brilliant mash up, inspired by Stephen King, H.P. Lovecraft, David Lynch and many other genius minds, like Sam Lake himself. Remedy did a great job, creating a plausible world, with thick, gloomy atmosphere, interesting characters and an innovative storyline. The Game feels like a good book, you can't stop reading, like an gripping thriller, but its more than that, because there are so many other dimensions. The Soundtrack, and besides, the included Songs, are particularly suitable, and underline the journey through the darkness very well. The graphics are still impressive on its own special way, the dark tonality fit to the dim story. I have to admit, some people will have their little problems with the controls, but will not overcast your experience. Enough words from a fan, I hope, I could convince you a little, thank you for reading! The unanswered mystery is what stays with us the longest, and it’s what we’ll remember in the end

Made by Remedy

This game might not be the pure horror title that everyone was expecting but its story is very good and the gameplay is not as bad. Yes, its a 3º person shooter but, what did you expected from the people that made Max Payne?

Homage to Stepehn King but Imperfect

Overall, I had a good time with it. But there's a significant amount of problems I had with Alan Wake. Firstly, the controls: I'm not the only one to point this out, but unlike others I did in fact learn to compensate - but making terrible controls as a "feature" is not a smart design decision. It's uncomfortable and jarring stuff like that that makes people give up on a product and never give it a chance to show them the good parts. Secondly, the camera: Yep. It's terrible. Just like many other reviewers have stated, the camera is an active impediment to enjoying the game. I get that you're not supposed to feel comfortable in a survival horror game - but Alan Wake ISN'T survival horror. It's an action game with gimmicks and a creepy atmosphere. Thirdly, the repetitive combat: Yes, I agree with many of the reviewers here - the Taken are more annoying than frightening. I'm betting that the game was better when it first came out as episodic content, rather than having to slog through it all at once. Fourthly, the checkpoint save system: I really, truly despise checkpoint save systems. They're lazy, and they're not fun at all. There were several points in the game where I would have loved to have a quick save slot so I didn't have to redo two or three minutes every time I messed up (the moving vehicle boss monster sections come to mind). Another point was when I was on stage, I'd beaten the Taken, and had quit out so I could get some things around the house done - but when I booted Alan Wake back up, I'd discovered it hadn't save immediately after the victory, so I was forced to do part of that fight again. Fifthly, Alan himself is... not interesting. I liked Barry and Pat Maine a great deal more, and the Thomas Zane story sounded almost more interesting than Alan's. The manuscript pages were sometimes horrible to read, real hackneyed, cliche stuff. The game earns an extra star for introducing me to Poets of the Fall (which I somehow missed when I played Max Payne 2).
