Pros
Pro Adventure game elements
While there is plenty of shooting in Alan Wake, the developers have done a good time switching things up by throwing in unusual tasks, like talking to mental patients or signing forms for park rangers. It sounds silly, but it helps make the game feel a lot more varied than other shooters.
Pro Light-based gameplay
Players don't just use guns to defeat their enemies. You can also use flashlights, flares, flashbangs, and other light sources to burn away the darkness that shields enemies in order to do damage. The light system means players have to be strategic and manage their enemies; Alan Wake is about area control as much as it is about shooting accurately.
