Microsoft Game Studios Alan Wake
It isn't perfect, but Remedy's oft-delayed Alan Wake is an enjoyable and tense survival horror title that boasts a gripping plot, gorgeous environments, and an inventive "light versus dark" battle mechanic.

- Pros:
- Strong story and haunting conclusion, great voice-acting, gorgeous environments, superb soundtrack and nods to pop-culture fixtures
- Cons:
- Character models look dated, game resets player progression at nearly every turn, leans heavily on combat, characters take on typical 'horror movie character' qualities
