Alan Wake “The Signal” a great DLC

I recently finished the first DLC for Alan Wake, titled “The Signal”.  The DLC starts off shortly after defeating the dark presence where you find yourself in back in Bright Falls, but it’s a strangely distorted Bright Falls.  It starts off like original game at the diner, but the situation veers off and your task is finding out what’s going on.  Along the way Thomas Zane helps you out with clues similar to the first game.

Over-all I feel it’s a great continuation of the first story.  The ending battle in “The Signal” suffers from the final boss syndrome more than the game.  The ending for Alan Wake was great, you did have to fight hard at the end, but the player was rewarded with reflective and unexpected ending, I loved the ending of the game.
