lol nice thread!

heavy rain will certainly outdo alan wake in the story department no contest. visuals are very good too. i like the whole cinematic approach to this

but alan wake i cant help but love the setting of the game i.e. forests, mountains etc. gameplay will be good.

i will enjoy both rather than be a silly fanboy and miss out on great games for the sake of supporting your console of choice

yep, we really haven't seen really anything on heavy rain as well......it's like the only thing that is being hyped is exclusivity for these titles. No one really knows anything except some screen shots or a limited glorified graphics demo.

Rebel,

Possible, but not at this time. Even if it does go to PS3, I'm still getting it for PC. A game like that was developed to be looked at in its full graphical potential.

Anyway, I choose Alan Wake. Heavy Rain is probably going to turn out like Indigo Prophecy: Filled with cheeziness, Matrix-esque stupidity, and European Socialist overtones.

Alan Wake.

I really laugh when people call the game vaporware when it's nowhere near being vaporware.

Heavy Rain lost some of my hype due to that gameplay trailer. I'm not really fond of games like that, especially if I think I won't get my money's worth. I might get it, but if I had to choose, I'd choose Alan Wake. :?

Why exactly are we always comparing games that shouldn't be compared? Alan Wake and Heavy Rain are moving in 2 different directions from each other.

Heavy Rain is more focused on character development and story telling with some impressive visuals while Alan Wake seems to be taking a survival horror approach to its gameplay and story telling.

Neither of these games are in direct competition with each other and shouldn't be compared because they are two entirely different games.

So why can't we agree that both are going to be great games and just be done with it?

heavy rain will get AA. Alan Wake will get AAA. Heavy rain will sell maybe 500,000 to 1 million games, Alan Wake will sell 3 to 4 million games.
