Re: Alan Wake Returns

I still need to play through the DLC on the first game, which I've paid for and downloaded.

Re: Alan Wake Returns

Yeah, I only played the game once, and then went to all the boards to talk about how great the game was. Never returned to get all the achievements or play the DLC I got.

But I can't wait!

I don't want to wait, but I probably can.

Re: Alan Wake Returns

I predict a 2D side-scroller.

Re: Alan Wake Returns

@majornelson: We can confirm that this new "Alan Wake" game will be a fully standalone experience and released on Xbox LIVE.

Re: Alan Wake Returns

I predict card combat with a splash of tower defense.

Re: Alan Wake Returns

Actually, I'm going to guess it'll be episodic in nature. We'll end up buying three 1200-point releases.

Re: Alan Wake Returns

The first game would have been great as an episodic, although that still remains a marketing plan that never seems to work.

Re: Alan Wake Returns

They pretty much have to if they still have a 2gb limit on XBLA games. All the acheivements and stuff will be tied to one title. Like pfx2 and family game night.

Re: Alan Wake Returns

I'd much rather have a disc. No download times, no HD space used (after I'm finished playing), no waiting between episodes.

But whatever. I'll get it either way.

Re: Alan Wake Returns

Also, I'd like to propose that the title be Alan ReWake. They can use that, but they have to pay me. Same for Alan Wak3 and 4l4n W4ke.

Re: Alan Wake Returns

The first one was boring, IMO.

Great news, though.

Re: Alan Wake's Night Springs?

"Arcade Action"? Sounds like horde mode.

I think the first one is literally free at this point.
