| Game loooks good, but lots of collecting achievements and multiple playthroughs = bad! Hope you can change the story and the ending atleast when you have to play it serveral times for 1k. |

| the list does seem kinda boring and typical but you guys gave it a very good review and i trust your reviews. i can look past the chievos and enjoy what seems to be a very interesting game. i might even pick up the collectors edition of it. |

Apparently I am the only one who likes collecting things. Especially things that provide backstory. Not to mention, I don't know what the achievements have to do with enjoying the game itself. I wouldn't deny a game purchase over annoying achievements. Anyway, day one purchase. |

@1 As much as I agree with you that it does resemble Alone in the Dark very much, you have to remember this been in production for 6 years, years before AitD even started production. |

"Inanimate objects shouldn't move of their own accord. Put a stop to this affront, oh, say, 20 times." Damn Straight LMAO! I knew I wanted this game, but now that I've seen the review, this is a MUST BUY! I will definitely be trying my hardest to grab this baby on launch day! |

| I know this and achievement website, but i don't ever think achievements should be used when rating/reviewing a game. So in my eyes this is even higher than the 9.2 it got. |

| I've been looking forward to this game. The X360 needs a good psychological thriller. Condemned's story was weak, Silent Hill and Alone in the Dark just weren't very good, etc. My backlog of games means that it'll be a good chunk of time before I get to playing Alan Wake, but I will play it. |

| @#19 - The achievements don't factor into the final score. The final score isn't an average either, so 92 is a 92 on its own merits =) |

| Looks like 2 playthroughs is the key here, once just to take in the atmosphere of the game without worrying about achievements, and another to collect stuff. To be honest if a game is good enough to make me want to do that they are on to a winner. |

@#28 Totally, 100% agree. That show was awesome. Completely forgot bout it til you mentioned it. Good man! OT, I'm lovin the achievement names and descriptions. Some developers put out some boring ass lists. Please don't leave it too long before you bring out another game Remedy!! |

| Solid list in my opinion. I have the convenience of having an iPhone (With a collectible guide!) at all times so the collectibles in games are never that big of a deal, unless I decide to go legitimate. |

| #41, not in the slightest. I was jsut saying that some people have computers in places not near their Xboxes (Like myself.) and an iPhone literally right next to you makes collectibles in games much easier. |

Wow some of these achievements blow chunks, what's the betting some of the difficulty ones aren't even available until you've beaten the game once, I mean how many times do developers expect us to go through their games when there are so many games coming out that need to be played. |

Someone was worrying this game has QTE's hence the cinematic dodge achievement. I can confirm this achievement nor the game has nothing to do with QTE's apart from few button smash parts. This game makes me proud to be a Finnish geek and after playing the story once I'm sad that I didn't spend couple bucks to have inopened Alan Wake CE on my shelf :P |

guys i was wondering if anybody knew how to post in the forums. every time i try to i get this: Extreme Washing Machine, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons: Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system? If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation. sorry it has nothing to do with this game,(which looks great) but i have been trying to figure this out for hours and im getting really annoyed. cheers for any help |
