It's our final "scary" episode for October, and we're wrapping the month up with a horror game I've been jonesing to play for years: Alan Wake. I've heard it described as playing a Stephen King novel, and I couldn't agree more.
The game goes as far as to have you play AS a writer (Alan Wake), and while you don't write anything yourself, you stumble through a horror movie set in a novel, finding pages of a manuscript that keep the plot moving as you fight enemies with guns or flashlights. Or should I say guns AND flashlights. Combat isn't its strong suit, but Alan Wake tells a HELL of a story.
The Al to my Barry, ye olde Bradley McCue, joins me on the show this week. He was as stoked to jump into this game as I was, and now that we're both done our first playthrough, we have a lot to say about this one. The entire game is 100% story focused, so if you've read this far (does anyone read these?), know that spoilers are incoming.
And before we wake Alan, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week we talk the indie game Ball X Pit, the best games to play while high, and will we ever see Sega Saturn or Dreamcast games on Nintendo Switch Online?
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One'!! This one features 3 narrative heavy horror games: Eternal Darkness, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, and Heavy Rain.
