I absolutely loved Alan Wake.
The story was poignant, the graphics were breathtaking, the voice acting was phenomenal. I think I had one tiny gripe about the game - the combat system becomes very repetitive and annoying after a while, but it is creative, and like the Silent Hill series gives you a sense of dread and a fear of combat. Your protagonist isn't a trained soldier, he's an author; he isn't meant to fight like a SEAL.
As far as consoles versus computers goes - who cares? Your choice of console, videogame, novel, film, or music doesn't define who you are. Accusations that all console gamers are sheeple or inherently idiots is absolutely ridiculous. I play an Epiphone LP Standard; I don't feel superior to anybody that rocks a Squire.
