Alan Wake graphically superior to Uncharted 2....???

From what I've seen it's certainly worth contending for 2nd place (console gfx king) but we haven't seen anything on the final build yet except screenshots (lighting looks great though). Wait 'til we see more about it before making a case.moose_knuckler

I think Alan Wake looks pretty damn impressive from the gameplay footage I've seen so far (the lighting especially). Since I can't count pixels, triangles, shaders, or whatever, I don't know whether or not it rivals UC2 on a technical level. But it is one of the nicest-looking games I've seen this entire gen.

Since people say KZ2 doesn't look better than Uncharted 2 just because it isn't bright and colorful, then how can Alan Wake be considered better? lol

LOL, also is your charater in KZ2 a "little person" because whenever I go up against one of my team mates I'm always on eye level with there chest. It make me feel like I'm always crouching

you see from the gun's point of view, not your characters eyes.

No. Alan Wake looks good but it can't compare with U2.

[QUOTE="gregbmil"]I don't know what people are talking about with Killzone 2. I just got it about 2 weeks ago, and it has awesome detail on the guns, but the rest of the game don't look like anything special

Id have to agree alot of ppl dont realize that we have only seen the linear sections of AW... its got complete sections of open world areas... We have only seen videos of the linear night sections.. i am in no way shape or form bashing U2 its amazing. But we have to take those factors into consideration... I dont understand why cows cant acknowlegde that a game coming out later might look better than U2... I highly doubt that U2 will be the best looking game of the PS3 lifespans so get a grip.

Alan Wake isn't a linear,corridor levels game like UC2,plus it got to render a lot more going on screen + physics.Tessellation

[QUOTE="vistamanV5"][QUOTE="nhh18"]No. Going by VIDEOS of the game. It is more linear slow pace and boring.

[QUOTE="navyguy21"][QUOTE="nhh18"]I read the previews about the open world. It is where you go around talking to locals and turning on light switches in order to play the night stages. Really basically a intrude to the linear night stages and has very little to do with game. Gives me lols because the games main focus is obviously the night time scenes and not the day time.

[QUOTE="RavenLoud"][QUOTE="daveg1"] thats not what i meant at all i meant ps3 fans talk as if everything on there system is god when they havent even experienced anything out there same go's for 360/wii fanboys..i see it more so with ps3 fans claiming this is better than that..SaltyMeatballs

Exactly!!!They really over hyped ps3...motorstorm on e3 2005 looked like movie also...they promised too much and didnt deliver.MS that you like to bash so much actually showed gears of war and said simply that ps3 and x360 capabilities are on par...only sony said it will be big difference...now on topic,Alan Wakes lightning whips the floor with any game this game on consoles...from what i seen a daylight scene looked amazing,better then Uncharted 2...will see,I remember Max Payne 2 when it came out it was one of the best looking game,no doubt Alan Wake will look at least close to Uncharted 2 if not on par(after all Uncharted 2 is linear as you can get,still console gfx king).

[QUOTE="vistamanV5"][QUOTE="navyguy21"]Its alot like Folklore man. During the day, you search for clues, talk to people, explore the world. At night is when you tackle the story line because thats when all the crazy stuff happens. I think it will work because i loved folklore, and it makes sense to do it this way, especially with light being such a huge factor in the game/storynhh18

Has anyone actually seen AW's new vid, the lighting is amazing,HDR used perfectly and the clothing and character models look amazing. UC2 is a beast on the graphics end, but they both have completely different artstyles, so it's hard to say. We would really need to look at a technical side of it to get a good comparison.

I really doubt it, but it would be nice to have a gorgeous looking game... once again :)

Most Uncharted 2 fans don't know anything about graphics.

They often mistake elements of it's art direction for technical achievements. They rely on still images and base their conclusion on whats more appealing to the eye. That is not how you compare graphics. Maybe art styIe, but not graphics. That being said, I don't think Uncharted 2's engine is capable of running AW's world without taking a performance hit. In other words, it wasn't built for AW's gameplay.

[QUOTE="Vadamee"]I think it looks as good as Uncharted 2, but I feel its a more impressive achievement graphically given AW's scale and open-end.Panosola

I think Alan Wake it will be look better than U2.........8)

Nope. Never;)

Lems will NEVER accept a 2 year old (by the time Alan Wake releases) PS3 title will look better than their flagship graphics showcase title with twice the dev time as KZ2. GeOW 3 has a better chance maybe lems should pin their hopes on that. I similarly don't see any PS3 games surpassing UC2 in the near future until UC3 itself is released. This is my crystal ball prediction: GeOW 3 screenshots are realeased... hundreds of cows post 'Teh Bullshots' .... a lil later: UC3 screenshots released.. hundreds of lems post 'Teh Bullshots'.... eNT1TY

kz2 is graphic king of consoles. Uncharted 2 is second

We have only really seen a couple scenes of Alan wake, and it isn't always during the night, their are also day segments that make up a large part of the game, as well as the game is open world, while uncharted is linear.

It has its advantages, weaknesses

Alan Wake looks to be an incredible experience, and given Remdey's track record, is not bound to dissapoint.

It does have its share of eye-candy, and whether or not it will surpass UC 2 at this point is just mere speculation, not enough has been seen.

I'm sorry but you obviously have not looked hard enough if you think "ps3 fans" are the only ones doing it. 360/wii fanboys have been claiming their games are god creations as well at the same level as cows.

Alan wake has lots of screen tearing and it uses lots of blur to cover up textures.

I think the Uncharted 2 engine is better
