Good reviews so far, I can't wait to play it.

It's a shame some are going to act like this game is terrible.

It's more amusing to see PS3 fan's "dissapointment" with it scoring low, I've never seen them so mellow.

well its not the second coming like everyone taught it would be. Should have great legs though.

 

I think thats over stating it. I saw it as a very good looking game from a under represented genre. I like horror games and from the reviews I have read if you like those type of games then Alan Wake is going to be a enjoyable experience. Thats what I was expecting from this game not for it to be a game of the year contender.

And so willing to accept a low score for an exclusive without spamming the reviewers website with death threats.

Guys... Are you really caring for a bunch of critics?
Even critics rely on their own tastes...

Alan Wake is definitely a notable game! So... Let's buy it and enjoy. After we can discuss about the game!



IT'S TIME FOR SHENMUE III, SEGA!

I have a review copy, I' just finished Episode 2 (all the game is 6 Episodes plus the available on launch DL episode) and I'm already 5 1/2 hours in.

The wind blowing through the woods and the swirling mist suckin you in, is like nothing you 've ever seen in a videogame.
Pure Magic.

I'm currently watching a live stream of the game and the dude finished ch2 within 2 hours -> http://de.justin.tv/ripper93#r=dV1UzGU~ - that guy isn't rushing through the game either, but he doesn't search every inch for pages/coffee and so on. I guess you are searching harder for the collectibles.

I expected better reviews...still it could be like FFXIII and be one of the best games of the year dispite some low reviews; still looking forward to it
