I know uncompressed videos are hard (3 minutes would probably be 80 mb or so) . I would post screens 720pbut I don't have my ps3 in my college room (only xbox 360). So I am annoyed I can't find any person who didn't just print screen.

Wait, I hope you aren't planning to post off-screen shots.

See how Fugly screenes of GOW3 make it look bad, well that's normal with every game, they always look better in motion.

Those direct screens of GOW3 still look good, but my god is does that game look better in motion, to me it looks nearly CG in some areas.

But on topic, it should be AAA.

you know what I'm in the mood for some halfassed idiotic system wars logic. God of War 3 hype thread>This hype thread

God of War 3= 9.0

Clearly Alan Wake will flop with an 8.0 because Remedy has never ever made a good game in their lives


Nope can't think of one good game they have made.

Does not seem that way from in game pics

theseekar

you posted the worst possible in game pics.

If a game looks good, it looks good, not terrible here and good there

I am sure in some spots GOW3 will look better, but i see nothing really special there

BTW i actually posted the ONLY in game pics i could find, they are rather rare to come by you know

So you haven't actually played through GoW3... no one in the right mind would ever bash GoW3 for its visuals, especially if they actually played through the game.

Plus your argument does not make sense, because there are already "terrible" looking screens of Alan Wake :| You can't expect games to look perfect in every single detail... really now. I think you're just looking for reasons to hate.

It wasn't meant to just take shots at God of War 3. I genuinly think the God of War 3 hype thread was better :P I just wanted to put a silly reason to doubt the game. Was meant to be in good fun, thought it was obvious.

Well GOW3 didn't sell more than Halo 3 nor does it look better than Crysis, so it deserves the hate it gets.

(This was clearly a joke, but now it's ruined by me posting this).

Live action alan wake prequel premiers April 25th on XBL!

If Alan Wake's TV show-like presentation isn't, well, enough like a TV show for you, here's some good news: next week, the first episode in a six-part live-action Alan Wake series will be available on Xbox Live.

Bright Falls, shot on location in Oregon, acts as a prequel to the events in the game -- which hopefully means that at least some weirdness was taking place in the game's location before the arrival of Mr. Wake. Otherwise, we'll be watching six episodes about a really pleasant town. Allaying the concern we just expressed, Microsoft promises that the series "evokes the same ghostly chills as 'Twin Peaks' did when it premiered 20 years ago this month."

The first two episodes will be available for Xbox Live Gold members on April 25, for everyone else on Xbox Live on April 26, and on brightfalls.com on April 27, with one new episode releasing each week until May 17's two-part finale. That date happens to be one day before the Xbox 360 game's release date, at which point you'll get to see the rest of the story in the game -- and the short story included with the collector's edition.joystiq

How come nobody is holding videogames.de accountable for their awful Alan Wake screenshots? They have just done the same to Halo Reach, jpegs compressed to hell and back with big, obvious artifacts.

Microsoft stopped putting 360 games they publish in 2007. The chances of Alan Wake to PC is 25% since Remedy would hate all the work they threw away for the PC version, but since Microsoft published the game, they have full control over it.

Well that's probably higher than the chances I get a 360, so I will suppose I will wait this one out.
