This is one of the best years in the history of video games, BUT there have been some deflating moments for otherwise good games. Poor PC ports across the board (except for RE4make), Mortal Kombat 1 being unfinished and microtransaction heavy, etc.
As it pertains to Alan Wake II, it has a notable lack of polish. I have to restart the game once per boot in order for the audio to function. And I've noticed at least one spelling error amongst the smaller bugs I've encountered (mouth movement in cutscenes is way off).
Super Mario Wonder and Resident Evil 4 have truly been the two most polished games this year. But there have been enough massive releases to overcome the low points.
