Put in about an hr and a half and finished up the first "Episode" of this game and it was definitely worth the wait..great game..it does a great job of immersing you in the story..kinda reminds me of Alone in the Dark...definitely need to try this one out..

Nice I've been debating on whether or not to get this. I've heard it doesn't have much variety or much of a place for replay value...is that what you got from it NC?

Dont mean to interject, but I finished this up this weekend and while a fantastic fantasy game, once you are done, not much of a replay value. But I could say the same for most single player story driven games.

If you are a collectibles person then there is some replayability...there are manuscripts, thermos's, radio shows, hidden chests, tv shows, etc to find...and alot of them to keep you busy...plus there is already two downloadable extra "Episodes" in the works now...but if you're not into that then it'd be a must rental..

Well what I am mostly concerned about is how good the story is and if the story is fairly long. I mean I got Splinter Cell: Conviction on the cheap from Amazon, now it was worth the about $20 I paid for it's short story. Point is to you guys is if you compare Alan Wake to the length of Conviction is Alan Wake a longer game and does it have a better storyline. May be too weird of a comparison I don't know lol. If it has an interesting enough story and is decently long (8-10hrs) then I think I'll get it since I can get it fairly cheap with Amazon.

yeah hard to compare both games but Alan Wakes campaign is longer and better IMO than Splinter Cells...but Splinter Cell has more replayability with its co op campaign and deniable ops modes..to me it's a buy...worst case its a definite rental :eek:k:

good game, but one of the shortest single player titles i've played in awhile. it's more of a rental than a buy IMO. there's not much replayibility after you beat it unless you plan on buying the DLC content for it next month.

Seems like all you do is run in the woods killing the whatever they are called.

I plan on renting this one day... I waited long enough for, but I'm scared that I will be disappointed.

I'm going to get it because it seems to have the Silent Hill vibe going on, but I'll wait until I can get it for about $25 used at GameStop.

Picked this up today at Gamestop; the price has dropped $20, so I got for $34 used.

I've gotta go back through on Nightmare to finish collecting manuscripts. I also need to get the rest of the hidden chests and thermos plus I missed one radio and one tv show.

Both DLC are basically new "episodes". I got both. Since I liked the game, I liked both DLC. They pick up after the end of the game.

I'm glad I rented it. I was just not the way I thought.....I thought itd be more of an open world, and you wouldn't do same thing over and over. The best part was the wicked graphics.
