Hi all,

i would love to buy the game at gog, but at steam, u can get it actually for 7 €, so around 9 Dollars...

Pls make it here also... i would prefer buying at gog..

Greeting...

On Steam its marked down in a sale from 28€ to 7€ in a sale, so they are essentially the same price outside of a sale, GoG have sales too, maybe wait for that or just get it on Steam I guess.

The Steam version is crippled with always-on DRM, the GOG version is not. So the GOG version is the way to go. Money? Who cares about a bit of money when you can be sure you actually OWN the game you purchase with no persistent on-line requirement whatsoever?

I don't mean to question you, but I'm not sure if the Steam version has always-on DRM since Alan Wake isn't listed on this site: http://steamdrm.flibitijibibo.com/index.php?page=DRM_Lists/The_Big_DRM_List

But I'm not sure if the above site includes games which simply require a Steam connection to be online, since that is a list of all the types of other DRM.

I meant: Steam = on-line DRM. Yeah, I know, you can play it off-line... AFTER you loaded it on Steam first. But I don't have the assurance that 10 years from now Steam will be on-line as well.

And yes: I'm still playing games that are 10-year old and older....

I wanted to oppose you but then I recalled I have played a bit of Final Fantasy 8 recently. Oops. :)

Doesn't bother me usually, but then again I'm not one concerned with "owning" my games as much as some people.

Steam goes down? There would be chaos.

FF is a great series that still stands out from the crowd even when you play it today, I'm even getting FFIII on android next week :)

Oh, nice. Thanks for tip!

On the record, a few weeks ago you could get Alan Wake American Nightmare for $2 here, so I do think AW will be possible to get around $8 on GOG some day. But it's a bet on a wild card.

I can buy the Full Box Collector's Edition at Wal*Mart for $14.99 not sure why it has to be $30.00 on GOG.

Alan Wake Franchise is on sale at Steam right now for $10. Two games plus bonus contents.
