[QUOTE="silversix_"]I really hope this isn't true becouse if it is, woooow weak sauce is all i can say... Been waiting for this game for over 5years and that isn't a good news.pstripl3
Its true. The proof is in the vids and pics.

Wut are ya talking about? Vids ALWAYS looked awesome and pics aswell for the most part... Only see a couple of ugly low rez Alan Wake pics in threads made by cows trying to bash it.

Yeah thats the thing,until that gets filled out then nothing is confirmed imo.

But one of the main pixel counters has already said its 540p "no doubt"

Although I can just see it a few days from now : Alan Wake = 1280x720 4xAA. :P

You know sorry if I don't take the words of a random forum poster to heart, but for the time being I am inclined to believe the developers on this one. If Remedy says it's 720p nativethen it's probably 720p. Until the guy is actually taking screens from his own motion capture card he's talking out of his ass.

1152x720 is not HD, but that's only alpha, can change in the final build though.

His cover is that video resolution doesn't affect native resolution, but if that were really true you should be able to take any "HD" video of any game and find the resolution. There have been plenty released for Alan Wake, just head over to gametrailers for their 480p stuff, so why does he pick this one?

LOL its just cows trying to change the rules on the fly. If they really want to equate console graphics king with resolution and AA level then the only king is Virtua Tennis 3. Either way no matter what rez AW is at it is the best looking console game to come out yet.

These guys on B3D are usually pretty damn accurate, but either way, who cares? Game will look great regardless.

trollop_scat
:3 My guess..the phantoms are in the shapes of people, so they're probably bad souls. You shine the light on them (they're evil, so the light hurts), and that reveals their true form for some reason wherever the light is being, so you aim for that spot to make damage, >:[ and boom. Again, I pulled that out of my ass. I don't really care what the res is...surely it's not lower than 640x480, which is the resolution my TV is in, so I'm all good.

I'm confused. I'll start potentially caring once this has all been cleared up. 960x540 is a ridiculous resolution though. Those who act as if this would be insignificant should just be quiet.

1280x720=921600
960x540=518400

= the resolution is nearly halved. This would be extremely noticeable to anyone with eyes.

Not defending any of the anti-AW posts, but the hordes of AW threads lately ( there was 5 on the front page at one point ) claiming it to be graphic king didn't exactly help. (inb4 conspiracy about you three being the same person :P)

Hay guys Alan Wake isn't actually 540p, it's only 360p!

I didn't use my own screen cap tech like a normal person would, I have something better. Here's this blurry screengrab from a youtube video. This proof is undeniable!

AW has been gimped since they made it a console game and I wouldn't be suprised if the resolution took a big gimping as well. I'm only sad I will never see the promised open-world epicness in 1080p that was to be on PC. =(

960x540 4xAA

And at least the scaling will be nice and easy with 1080p TV's since 960x540 scaled x2 is eaxtly 1920x1080.

GioVela2010

Wow, dude, you can't even multiply numbers properly. 1080p is 960x540 scaled x4.

I agree to a degree. It's a shame the PC version is essentially canned at this point. It is still an open world game though. Just won't look as good as it would've on PC.

KaoSXFACTOR
I don't that's It at all. It could be all the graphics king threads by the die hard lems. Also it isn't only cows on these threads hermits hate this game too as it was dumbed down and made 360 exclusive when it was supposed to be a dx10 breakthrough to get gamers to buy vista. The ms did the ol bait and switch and killed the PC version ( as they have been doing, time for a mass exodus to OpenGL and Linux if you ask me!)
