[QUOTE="SolidTy"]Alan Wait has been in development for longer than any other game I can think of, maybe Too Human was longer.:P Alan Wake's graphics BETTER destroy everything, and don't tell me how small Remedy is.:P

Why must Alan Wake's graphics be better than everything simply due to development time? FFXIII was in development for a long time. . .yet no one puts the requirement on it to have the best graphics ever. What about SC2 or D3? Both have been in development for awhile, and by the time they actually ship will most likely have similar development times as AW. . .do they have the same requirements of having graphics that destroy everything else? I think it's silly to try and force a graphics king requirement on a game simply because it's been in development for longer than 2 - 3 years. We already know what Remedy was doing with that time. The game started out as a sandbox game and it didn't allow them to tell the story efficiently so they had to go in and change the story telling method. If their reason for spending 5 years developing it was "Have the best graphics." You might have a point, however since we know the reason for the delay, I don't understand you trying to force graphics king onto AW.

I'm not sure if it'll look better or not than Uncharted 2, but the game looks awesome. And the atmosphere is great. One of my most anticipated games.

I have it reserved, and I'm looking forward to it, but I'm not going to read that word wall up there. It's too epic. I would try to fix that.

The name of the thread is Alan Wake WILL look better than Uncharted 2 (considered by critics and gamers alike as the best looking console game today, right up there with Killzone 2). I know the TC was joking, and I was joking along with his post, hence the ":P" emoticon.

The dead give away is "don't tell me how small Remedy is" line, or so I thought.;)

Anyways, I also said I'm getting the game and looking forward to it. Since this is your 7th post here, and you don't know me well, I will just chalk this up to a misunderstanding, since I tend to joke.
Since the TC was joking, I thought I would joke with him.

You could have quoted the TC and said pretty much the same thing, ya know. In any event, quoting the TC would have been a mistake, since he was joking as well.:P

Just for the record, Alan will not look better than Uncharted 2, and it will be a great game. I like Max Payne 1 & 2, and I'm looking forward to this. I don't have high expectations on the graphics at all, however, they look decent to great at times, so that's a plus.

It's always going to be about Gameplay first and formost with me, so if you read my posts again, remember that. Peace, and WELCOME to Gamespot!:P

I dunno, I'm really looking forward to this game but I can imagine it becoming a Haze or Lair.xTheExploited
Do you remember Haze and Lair? They were both realized for what they were before release, Lair had a bit of a following after, but a large group realized it looked terrible. Alan Wake has got nothing but positive preview buzz, and all the gameplay we have seen looks incredible.

I know, I'm sure you saw the guy who just dropped random crysis pics in. It's like they have these pics bookmarked for graphics threads.

Alan Wake should be a really good game. But i don't know about beating UC2 in visuals. Multiplayer visuals. And if you played the game it looks even better.

Why because i'm informing people about a game. In which a board in where you can get people to post IS thread titles like this. You post an intelligent thread with valid information it'll get lost. You say anything looks better than killzone 2 or uncharted 2 you start to get hits.

Oh, you used sarcasm. I assumed you were actually discussing the game instead of simply being sarcastic. My mistake. I too however agree that it's about game play and not graphics. Which it appears AW has both.

It's sad that graphic threads get the most attention but as I said before the board will be a mess if everyone started doing it.

And howq is this an intelligent thread ? :?. You just copy-pasted the article.

I never said it was an intelligent thread. It's an information thread, where people can discuss the interview.

Can't say I'm in favor of episodically delivered games. Mostly concerned about prices being driven up. Just look at the price of regular DLC. Fallout 3 contains roughly 60 hours of content let's say. The DLC is 3-5 hours. Fallout 3 was $60. DLC was $10. $50 for 20 hours or $60 for 60 hours?

Also, it's just my disposition. I want to continue watching or playing whenever I feel like it. "To be continued..." and then you have to wait another month or whatever. With something like Alan Wake I'd just find that annoying.

And it's not like there is a need for games to go episodic is there? What would be the benefits? I guess if you were only mildly interested in a game the price of admission wouldn't be as high. It'd be kind of like downpayments so more people would be able to afford more games, even if ultimately you'd end up paying more.

The Telltale stuff is fine because it's Telltale. You could subscribe to a season for a discount. That's a model I'm ok with. If that'd be universally adopted I'd have no problems with episodic content on the money side of things.

Great blooming onion!!!... but all that aside, "Alan wake "LOOKS" better then uncharted 2" would have been a much bolder statement... But at the same time, a Flat out lie... Its all hype.

Does it look pretty good? yes....As for looking better?... No. Takes a lot more then Shiny bling to look better then UC2, that game has an imence amount of tiny and great detail. A lot of games strive to look the best "When it comes to consoles" But UC2 lives up to that for now and shows it with flying colours...

[QUOTE="Animal-Mother"][QUOTE="xTheExploited"][QUOTE="Animal-Mother"] I'm thinking more like alone in the dark, which it'll eventually become a better port on PC

PC versions been cancelled.

I know remedy still wants to do one, but until further notice you are right.

True, officially. However, you'd be out of your mind not to be skeptical of the official word on this one for reasons we should all be familiar with at this point as system wars users.

As in scores or sales? Cause 360 owners bought one to play games not watch movies or collect dust. TC why does it need to look better than U2. It does't need to and probably won't. Besides this game is not as scripted and linear as U2 or as conventional.

In terms of lighting and character apperal that seems to be the truth, everything else........we'll just have to alan wait and see :P. Seriously though, I'm excited for this game but it'll be tough to have that all-around awe that Uncharted 2 was able to pull, heck so many people on here knew U2 was gonna be the next console gfx king after KZ2 4+ months before it was gonna be released.
