Over at GAF I saw that the limited edition is on sale for $39.99 on Amazon.com and I'm thinking about biting. Is it worth it? I remember being excited about this one a few years ago but now I'm completely indifferent.

Get RE5 instead
-
Already got RE5 along with the DLC.
Is that what Alan Wake is like - 'cept worse?
-
RE5 poops on Alan Wake yeah
-
SP games are for friendless losers. Pick up RE5
-
Fuck yes I would
-
I bought all the DLC too so you could get the Gold Edition... but vanilla is fine as well
-
Buy it. It's great.
But yeah, RE5 is better.
-
Alan Wake is a pretty good B+ game. Nothing special, but fun to play through.
Deadly Premonition is better.
-
Alan Wake starts out great but gets silly and dumb near the end. Level 4 is awesome tho.
edit: RE5 is garbage.

this. The game is more repetitive than a hamster wheel.
-
I enjoyed Alan Wake slightly. It's got some huge problems and boring gameplay. RE5 is way better though.
-
what kind of bizarro world do i live in where RE5 is considered a good game ???
-
The kind where you have a girlfriend :lol !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
When did this turnaround on RE5 happen? I thought it was universally declared shit and not a patch on RE4
-
Alan Wake main game is so-so. Alice's (whatever her name was) terrible face model will give you nightmares.
Alan Wake DLC 1 is awesome. Shame that the entire game wasn't as good as the post-release DLC.
-
they are both good games. I'm playing through Alan Wake on 'Nightmare' right now and getting all the collectibles. Lots of fun. The game is easy as shit though, I'm halfway through chapter 5 and I've died like, 4 times? Theres checkpoints and items and shit everywhere. RE5 is more challenging, and is the better game.... I should play it some more, actually. Never tried the DLC.
-
RE5 sucks, tank jap controls :piss2
-
There's only one good part about Condemned 2 and it involves a bear.
-
Alan Wake is incredibly boring and repetitive.

i found alan wake really hard on the default thing because i dident know how to play it but i beat RE5 on the hardest hard difficulty really easily except for that fucking on wheels fight against the El Brujo or w/e it is
man i lvoed re5. nothing like upgrading ur weps to have unlimited ammo and it not considered cheating
-
it basically is cheating though. unlimited rocket lawnchairs and magnum makes the game a joke.
-
makes it a joke but fucking A is it fun.
-
demi what system do you have it on we should playsometime
-
what about condemned 2 guys?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO omg dont. Play #1 instead... or replay it
-
I played through the beginning of Alan Wake, and so far it's okay. They do a lot of crazy shit that doesn't make any goddamn sense. Like, if I started seeing weird shit like that I would have committed myself into a goddamn hospital instead of running around the fucking forest getting attacked by my schizophrenic imagination.
-
Btw, I was just trolling you guys. Alan Wake is fucking awesome. Barry Wheeler :bow
-
Well I ended up buying it anyway. Should be here by the 16th. I'm not sure why I need all that extra crap but hey, free DLC.
-
I just beat the game on Nightmare with all collectibles :rock
Also finally redeemed my code for The Signal. Seems fucking awesome so far, even better than the main game
-
besides it beign reused assets its very good.
