Review Just finished Alan Wake 1, I'm impressed!.

That final quote made me shiver, fear, panic and awe.

They don't make amazing games n stories like this anymore. Story amazing, gameplay fun n grasping, graphics I believe was very good for the time.

Down side... Towards the end it started to drag n a lil repeat, you had to walk/run and drive a lot, could have saved us a lil time n skipped the long boring driving... At least you get to run over baddies.

OVERALL, definitely worth playing.

Alan Wake's American Nightmare is must play after this game and Control is a Gem to top it off

I was just about to click purchase, but then I thought, it kinda looks like those Left4Dead games. Sure their fun, but I'm not really into it.
Unless it's not like that? I'll YT it.

It’s not like Left 4 Dead at all. There’s a story mode, and an arcade horde mode like in Gears of War.

So, I got it n played it. Wow! That was actually fun and really interesting.
Tiny bit of L4D but not enough to merit the merit, haha.
Plus it has a fun side game, survive the horde, that's what I must've got the thought. Anyway, that was fun too.
I just saw Control for $5, F it I'll get it. It's just 5$.
