First off let me say that the reason I gave this game a 10 is because I am a huge storyline buff. I play games for a lot of reasons, but when a story comes around that is actually the driving force behind me getting through it, I have to give it some extra respect. But there is more to the game than just that.
Alan Wake revolves around a best selling author of the same name. Wake Has been having some odd dreams lately but he hopes his vacation with his wife, Alice, to a small mountain town called Bright Falls. But all is not well for long. His wife goes missing, Wake has lost a week of his life and is not being attacked by creatures from a book he has no memory of writing.
Alan Wake has a great combat system, beautiful graphics and full and expansive world. You'll find your self many times taking a moment just to look around and take in the sights. But during the night portions you might not want to stay in one place for very long. For a game with a T rating, Alan Wake does an amazing job at being a great Horror game. A mixture of sounds, light effects and deadly enemies, you will find yourself on the edge of your set through much of the game.
If your a fan of Horror Literature such as Stephen King you will enjoy the same style of his writing in this game. If you like any of horror, shooter or story driven games, Alan Wake is for you.
