Halo Reach and Alan Wake deserve the AAA hype and Graphics Hype.
Just recent examples of the many, many threads we see every day in SW:
- Alan Wake just ***** PS3 graphic king hopes.
- First 11 minutes of Alan Wake up (video inside, your pants might explode)
- Alan Wake will be graphics king
- Alan Wake the best looking console game(I got only this one over at GT to see if SW was alone...nope, and it's going to be good.)
-----------------
- Halo Reach New GRAPHICS KING. Sorry PS3
- Halo Reach, Console Graphics king
- Subject: Halo Reach will have console best graphics, just wait.(Here is one from BUNGIE .net!...I grabbed it because the hype is bigger than SW.)
I've seen a bunch for GeoW3 already (here is just a taste : GeoW3 Console graphics King), but I will focus on just the TC's two main games, to keep this post short. BTW : There were many more links, and for good reason, they will be super duperty amazing. :P

I mean Alan has been in development for a very, very, very long time, longer than even GT5, Splinter Cell, and Killzone 2. It's Remedy's latest opus, and it should rock. I remember having a 360 at launch and waiting for the makers of MAX PAYNE's next game, Alan Wake. It's going to be HUGE.
Halo is Halo, nuff said (Let's be honest, REACH will probably be the Xbox 360's first AAAAE, which was a long time coming). ODST used old Halo 3 assets from Halo 3 AI to Halo 3 graphics and ODST still managed AAAE at GS with considering it was a short expansion with old assets...imagine what REACH is going to do to GS staff's expectations! Longer, better graphics, AI, and game modes...GS is going to go NUTSO!
Halo Reach is going to look grandiose as well. All we hear from Bungie is the technical marvels this game will display, if any company has the raw talent to push the 360, it's BUNGIE! That's the deal right, that Talent is why PS3 games like GOW3, U2, U1, MLB10:The Show, Heavy Rain, and Killzone 2 look so good. Bungie will deliver, as will Remedy, and if not, the back up plan, EPIC has got it coming.
As far as Graphics, if people are going to choose two games for the year to finally take back the Console Graphics Crown, they chose the two best for 360...ALAN Wake and Halo Reach may have amazing hype for scores and graphics, but it is justified.
The Hype game here is about what GS thinks and what they will score as well as personal thoughts. What games would you recommend a hardcore 360 owner to hype? While these games looked good to great, Splinter Cell, Mass Effect 2, and Metro didn't pan out graphically as well as everyone hoped (regarding the Console Graphics King Status, they still look very good though). While they looked great, critics didn't jump on the boat and give the kind of love we expected, and we got for games like GeoW, GeoW2, Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, etc.
However, these two upcoming games (Reach and Wake) are True 360 exclusives, and stand a better chance. They have both been in development for the 360 console, with no worries of making another version, so that's gotta strengthen the performance of the game, and make the teams task much easier in squeezing out the hardware. Overall, that's what is great about exclusives, devs can spend more time making ONE DEFINITIVE version for us to play and enjoy.
I didn't mention 2011's GeoW3 that much, which will have AAAE hype for score and GeoW3 already has hype for graphics as well. Why wouldn't it, Cliffy B. has assured us of his visual leadership.
For those that want to see Alan's AAA deserving Hype Thread, Here it is.

EDIT : As you can see my post and links above prove that both games (Reach & Wake ) have lot's of extreme graphic hype and AAA hype...but they both deserve it.
I think Rare pushes the 360 the farthest this gen. play banjo KazooieN&B. its just incredible how detailed they have such an open game. honestly if rare was to make PD2(pretty sure they are, they say they want to keep the franchise goin) they're probably the xboxes best bet to go up against Kz2. in 05 PDZ had the best weapon models for a long time(till 07-08) then Rare had Kameo which looks good by todays standards, and viva pinata wich looks incredible for 06. and banjo which is easily graphics king for the 360. if PD2 was made on the BK engine(rev amped) and had a realistic are direction then it has the chance of being one of the best looking games this gen. honestly Bk is criminally over looked, suprised that lemming didn't use it to pound infamouses head in in the open worlld catagory, or use BK to kill MGS4. Bk is the best looking open world sandbox game on consoles(until AW comes out) and its on the 360 what does that tell you bout the ps3? I'm not saying that the Ps3 can't do it, but in SW if its not made it can't do it (atleast in FB logic). BK is a massive game so imagine what rare can do with a more straight forward game. I approve of the Rare love in this post which is kinda rare :P in sw. yeah me too. im a rare lover....one of the few who thought PDZ actually got the score it deserved..
