The game is good...but 10/10? Really? Perfect game?

Perfect depite the complete lack of puzzles? Not a single one...

And perfect despite the combat which gets kinda repetitive? I've killed the same axe guy 100 times...

And despite the fact the game isn't very scary? Way too action oriented to be scary...

I'd say when everything is taken in to consideration (stellar visuals, good story, great gunplay mechanics, along with issues Ive described above), the game comes out with a score of 8.4/10 :)

Puzzles not only would ruin the flow of the game, but hinder the atmosphere. Puzzles in Elderwood? Makes no sense.

Also as I stated, Alan Wake is less repettive than any Silent Hill or Resi game by along way. And the action isn't that often. Resi4 or 5 has far more shooting for example. The game is less scary but more edge of your seat. It's designed to be disconcerting not jumpy. It's wonder about the story. It's an experience. I'd say when everything taken into consideration it's the only game this gen I couldnt stop thinking about until I finished it. The only game Ive ever seen my wife interested in storywise. To me thats a 10 right there.

Oh and to the known PS3 fans. Stay out of the thread if you have nothing worht daying. Metor 2033 I'll have a review for soon. And no Lost Planet 2 is boring as hell.
