Forums - Microsoft - Official Alan Wake Review Thread (Metacritic)

So 87% is bad, damn you guys are tough.  What if Red gets 85% will that sway you back to Alan.  Hell, did you even read the review.

Only 87% from a mag in their home country?! I'm in shock. This is so bad news.

There goes 90% Meta. :/

They scored Gears 85. That got 94. Don't be so ridiculous.

Then again, Gears is closer to 85 than 94 imo.



New review by GamingTrend. They gave it a 95. I also laughed at the comment under the summary.

GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

Nobody would be surprised or care what you think about a 360 exclusive ....

Your post here is fine

 

Hey, if I tell you I don't think Alan Wake looks as good as Uncharted 2 and Killzone 2 (which I believe is true) will you promise not to argue with anyone in my thread should anyone try? for me?!



 

This is the one 360 game that actually interests me. I really want to try it out. I am however a little put of at the gunplay they implemented. From what I've seen, it looks too much like a TPS to me, but the game looks like it is the king of the Ambiance hill. The ambiance in this game looks amazing and unrivaled by any game this generation. I hope here are many "dead" parts of the game, by that I mean part without using the gun too much, so that I can walk around and feel the great ambiance in peace =D I'm sure there will be a lot of relax time in the game, gunplay or not ^^ Oh, and of course the graphics looks amazing and the story seems pretty good (I don't know much about it yet), but that is part of the whole Ambiance thing for me =P

 my intention isn't to start a flamewar, it's to argue my opinion. I see no reason to argue here..

Alan Wake GamerRankings review places 5th/164th in terms of 360 games. Good score from them then!!!

No not yet, but someone is bound to come in with "best graphics ever!!" I'm just kindly asking for you to ignore it ...
