It's being taken off Steam because the music rights need renewing

If you currently own it, you'll still be able to play it, but you won't be able to buy it again. Great atmospheric single player game. Made by the team who made the Max Payne games.

Superb game and certainly worth a play through for £2.99.

There is talk of them renewing the music licenses in the future, so it might come back at a later date, but don't rely on the fact!

Agree with the above, played through it not long back after picking it up in a sale ages ago, loved it

 

[Amatsubu]

Glad I got it a couple of month ago

Its getting on a bit now, is there ever going to be an Alan Wake 2? Seems like a perfect game to create a series of titles out of.

 

[bledd]

There was Alan Wake American Nightmare, a short add on game, but not a proper sequel.

Has a hilarious bad guy in it

I want to know what will happen after the cut off date. I bought the game years go but haven't played it yet. After cut of date I understand it will no longer be up for sale, but can I still download it and play?

Yes, it'll be fine. It won't affect purchased games, just that it won't be available to buy any more. GREAT GAME by the way.

For anyone who does pick this up, setting the launch option -noblur in steam will remove the motion blur that's not in the options to remove but not exactly pleasant to see.

Why was there a fad for it? First thing I did in Mass Effect was turn that off.

I don't know it's awful. I think in some very specific situations ( cut scenes where implemented correctly ) it could offer something but during game play it's just awful. Just a poor attempt to replicate the motion blur you can get with a decent camera..

It's a default disable for me as is chromatic aberration and film grain.

Looks a bit rubbish..yt just shows some guy with a torch running around in the dark.

 

[FloppyPoppy]

It's a cracking Game Deza, bit of a cult following for it trailers won't do it justice.

The spooky dark!

The game is great!

To me it felt like what heavy rain was trying to to be, an interactive story telling game but without a trillion QTE

 

[Devrij]

It's basically like playing a Stephen king novel

 

[VincentHanna]

I tried playing it twice, the second time I got about halfway through.

Just really didn't find it very enjoyable though.

 

[Jono]

Does anyone remember the intel-powered tech demo of Alan Wake? It looked amazeballs. Then we got the game. I was disappointed.

Yeah, it is. I like the fact the main character is a bit derpy, it fits with the style.

I am finding some bits really hard though.. i'm on act (chapter?) 3 or something. well worth a couple of quid

Super Mario looks rubbish too, a fat plumber running around stealing coins!
