Cool thanks for the reply, sounds like I should dig it for sure. Just curious have you beaten it yet? And if so how many hours did it provide?

Not yet, but from what I've read it should take about an hour less than what AW took you (people are saying ~5 hours). There's only three "levels", but there's also an arcade mode reminiscent of Resident Evil 4's survival mode.

Wonder when the new DLC will hit the PC? Hopefully not two years later :p

Finished the original story a few days ago, and yeah the ending is confusing. Had to hop on the Alan Wake forums for clues. Besides the ending...  the lack of a 'grand' fight was disappointing, unless you consider that massive tornado a 'fight.'  Suppose that's a reason for DLC, or maybe a neat ending in some future game when they're sure the franchise is over.

Played the demo today, and is seems pretty good! I think i'll get the full game. I'm glad they persevered with Alan Wake, new IP seems to have a tough time these days.

Alan Wake doesn't have a demo; however, Alan Wake's American Nightmare has a trial version. I believe it has a trial version because it's an Xbox Live arcade title. For now, only Alan Wake is available on PC.

Is there any word of Alan Wake on PC in a boxed edition? Preferrably a collectors?
I heard that they delayed a boxed edition until March, but none of our stores are showing a pre-order entry...

There's a sort of ending to it all if you play through both DLC's and then American Nightmare (considering the DLC itself doesn't finish the story either). I mean, it does manage to wrap up most of the story from the DLC in American Nightmare :p

Sounds good. Except I don't have an Xbox 360 to get American Nightmare. ;) Hopefully they'll port it to PC sometime soon.

As far as I can remember, there were two episodes released for 360, which were bundled with the default PC copy.
Have you completed them? Because I am still somewhere in the middle of main story, so I can't really tell.
