The Good: Downright gorgeous lighting effects, excellent pacing, and the storyline keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout. Upcoming downloadable content will add more things to do in Alan Wake.
The Bad: Dodging enemy attacks from behind can be frustrating at times, a few noticeable (yet minor) graphical hiccups here and there, and a relatively short story.
The Verdict: Totally worth a rental for those gamers looking for an engaging story, and a great action game… although the short length of the story could be a deal breaker for those thinking about a purchase.
