Also, American Nightmare was Remedy "tipping their toes" into the XBLA title and trying something new, Not a full game but not a normal XBLA release, just a bit of fun they had at the office and decided to push it through. Glad they did, Alan Wake is My fav game and Remedy are epic

The story (from what I've read and seen) Involves you getting the story right to the manuscript you find (as it says Check the manuscript in the video.) i guess this could be classed as a cheap way of repeating the areas, but then again; looking at it from a story perspective; it is a new way that not many games have done. I believe as an XBLA title, Alan wake : AN has done something different then most

@XG247 Indeed, But hopefully Remedy will have learnt from it and make a better Alan Wake 2
