Being 2 gargantuans just released with Spiderman and Mario has that in anyway diminished your interest in getting Alan Wake?

It wouldn't diminish an interest that wasn't really there.

I only played Control when it bundled on Plus and I didn’t really think it was that great, to be honest.
Story and characters are a little bit too kafkian for my taste.

Nah. I need to go on with my backlog. It's insane. My next purchase will be helldivers then obviously rebirth. But that's it

Well Alan Wake is niche after all.

Even expanding the userbase (coming to PS) the number of gamers interested in it is way lower than Spider-Man and Mario.

It is not even comparable.

Lol I lied, got a good deal on the game and just bought it. Looking forward to playing it this weekend.
I'm torn now after looking at reviews I don't know weather I should get Spider-Man 2 or Alan wake 2 if it plays anything like the resident evil remakes I might have to get it & then get Spider-Man 2 around Christmas

Spider-Man if you're more of a Spider-Man fan....Alan Wake if you're more of an Alan Wake fan, you can't go wrong with either though

Nah the Alan Wake 2 release has to happen now, at the end. Earlier this year everyone praised RE4 and it’s a remake. That’s fine but we have to give consideration to original efforts too, and Wake is shaping up to be a damn good one. A more personal gripe, sure, but I believe it’s an important release for horror games and makes sense to come after Mario and SM2.

I beg to differ. Given Halloween maybe but ultimately the release of those two so closely, ppls limited funds, it will definitely limit sales. Like I said had it came out few months after I would hace bought it and I'm sure others have that same thinking. Shit funds isnt even an issue for me it's the closeness to release and I'm still getting into Spidey.

Alan Wake 2 is awesome so far. Really getting into the story because I love Forensic Files on TV. Much more appealing to me than SP2 and Mario.
