Now, I’m the first person to admit (ok, maybe after my girlfriend) that I’m a total geek. I’m also a sucker for clever marketing campaigns which wrap uyou up in the story of the product long before you ever get your grubby mitts on it. For these two reasons I’m afraid that I have given in to the hype and excitement which is surrounding Remedy’s Magnum Opus “Alan Wake” for the Xbox360.
I’m not a big fan of shoot-em-ups, or anything where you tend to die fairly easily. I bought Super Street Fighter last week, only to get quite bored after ten minutes of trying to pull off overly complicated special moves.
Alan Wake is however my kind of game. The kind of thing where I will be playing until 5 in the morning and Amy will come and find me in a super vegetated state of freaked out stupor. Anyways, I’ve been a total geek and pre-ordered the Limited Edition version, which is probably just more crap that I don’t need.
