Alan Wake 2

[AndyKurosaki]

It definitely looks interesting. Too much else going on this year for me to day one this. But I’ll certainly give it a go at some point.

[mfnick]

Only just got around to watching this one as I wasn’t that bothered about the original or Control so interest was low but after watching that I’m far more interested! Looks very Resident Evil. Count me in. 

[Nag]

I actually thought it looked a little off in motion... but I only watched a couple of minutes and was fairly drunk so what would I know.

[Nag]

Think they've got visions of another Red Dead Redemption situation.

Seems like it was releasing same week as Spiderman

 

Zero interest in more Spidey but I get it. AW remains the only game in October I'm going to get

 

Rough though for Alone in the Dark, lol

[one-armed dwarf]

Just like Control, this game is mad stylish and weird looking in the right kind of way. The live action blending in Control was great, made it feel like a weird sci-fi horror tv show

 

 

Still have never managed to be able to get into AW1 tho.

 

The trailer reminds me this is an EGS exclusive. Oh well, will have to fish out the login for that

[DANGERMAN]

same. I might stick it on easy and try to get through the first one on Deck. It'd be nice if this at least came to GOG on pc as it's not coming to Steam

[Nag]

This'll be my next pre-order... and I'll be going in as blind as possible.

[one-armed dwarf]

Unsure if this is a suitable substitute for playing the original, but it'll have to do cause AW1 ain't interesting to me

 

 

The glimpses of 2 at the end make me think this'll be a great game to play on OLED with all the curtains closed

[one-armed dwarf]

As if in anticipation of people like me not being able to get through Alan Wake 1, they only went and did a 'recap' of it in FortNite, lol

 

 

[one-armed dwarf]

Reviews are coming out and DF did a thing about the PS5 version

 

 

at a glance, looking at what's coming in it's looking like one of the best received games this year

[Nag]

Fuck.

[one-armed dwarf]

If you counter picked this game for some reason, well it just serves you right 👻

[Nag]

Thinking we'd not see it until 2024 backfired big time...🙃

Against a backdrop of 8, 9 and 10s then Gamecentral comes along with a 6.

TMZ have confirmed that James McCaffrey has died. He voiced Max Payne, Director Trench in Control and did Alex Casey in this

[DANGERMAN]

oh that's shit. no idea how old he was but it was cool he kept popping up in Remedy games. And Max Payne is a memorable voice

[Maf]

I dunno why I didn’t expect it but there’s DLC at some point

 

 

[Nag]

Never expected to be saying this but I'm not touching the dlc for this game... it was a massive disappointment and to put it bluntly I don't give a fuck about the the story or characters anymore.
