Uncharted > Alan Wake

Seriously, look at the visuals in both games. Uncharted has amazing animation and beautifully detailed environments. Alan Wake on the other hand looks like a Half-Life 2 mod but without the expressive characters. Just look at these two screens.

I mean, Uncharted looks so much livelier and vibrant it's not even funny. Alan wake looks dull and uninspired, and it doesn't look like it really has any particular tricks up it's sleeve that are going to turn anyone's head. And if you need an example of how Uncharted's animation trumps Alan Wake's without seeing them in motion, just look at the facial expressions on the characters! The hero in Uncharted shows a look of fear and determination that you'd expect to see, where as Alan Wake has a completely blank expression while the world around him goes to $@&*.

The animation in Alan Wake is downright bad, and the graphics themselves are nothing special. And yet this game for some reason appears on virtually every hype list you'll see posted here. Clearly though, from a visual standpoint at the very least, Uncharted owns it in almost every way imaginable.

your opinon=/=my opinion

its sad that PS3 fans can only obsess about future games becuae they have nothing to play right now. 

seeing as niether game is out to next year why care?

Alan Wake on the PC is technically and graphically the closest thing to Crysis. You don't even have a clue what you're talking about.DA_B0MB

I have not seen the PC version but the trailers for the Xbox 360 version did not impress me at all.

I dont think any fotage of Alan Wake on the 360 has ever been shown.

The demonstration of the game they had was running in DX10.

Uncharted is an 07 title, fanboy.

Wow, that's depressing. :( 

Yeah, I think the only demonstration was with the intel quadcore.WhySoCry

It will also be the first game to require a Dual Core CPU.....which is ironic considering they had Crysis Running maxed out on a single core CPU at CES. 

Alan Wake is going to pull stuff off that is going to be near Crysis quality... and its on the PC too...





Beat by Uncharted? Um... no.foxhound_fox

Nice pics visuals look outstanding :) 

I agree with you, and also disagree.  Uncharted looks right now to have a more beautiful and vibrant background with fruitful animations.  Perhaps because it's a jungle game and generally speaking jungle games appear to be more lively then anywhere else (crysis, far cry, etc).  So this game will appeal to me more so than Alan Wake.

However, Alan Wake still has some time left in it and in the end will do things that the PS3 would never be able.  Those with strong enough pcs will see this.  You can't really judge it now.  I for one am looking forward to the incredible huge free roam environment with all of it's destructiveness.

Both games are gonna rock equally hard IMO.

I dont beleive it for a second, I just dont, Maxed out with about 2 people on screen, with my 3.2 Ghz , 8800 and 3 Gig Ram on STALKER for example starts lagging like crazy after about 10 ai enemies join the combat.

I bet that will be the same case for Crysis. Luckily in July the Quad core Halfs in price, ... its upgrade time! :) 

i dont think  360 version of aw going to look like pc version at all its 512 meg console and remedy is not good at porting game you know,and i believe uncharted has the best gfx and animation in console games but aw on pc  going to look alot better than all console games

STALKER is a bad example, its optimized horribly.

The lighting in it is the best I have ever scene...try some of the mods, like the Float32 mod and sharper texture mods the game is unbelievable looking. 

Alan Wake owns anything that the PS3 has shown off. I'll be running it on my PC in DX10, something the PS3 can't do. :D

This is really not a good comparison at all. It makes the PS3 look not so hot. You should compare Heavenly Sword to a comparable game like Tomb Raider for 360. Those 2 games are much more alike.

Then Remedy is obviously not a very skilled developer by today's standards. I know that the concept of the game is very ambitious (free-roaming world that is constantly being changed by physics engine), but the visuals are simply flat. The animation is also awful, if you've seen the trailers.

Um, it looks fine to me, and it still has Heavenly Sword beaten. This game couldn't even run full specs on PS3 or 360. But it could do a better job on the 360's hardware since the PS3 ram was segmented and gimped.

Umm, somebody needs to take a look at the DX10 quad core demo showing off the weather effects that AW will have. Uncharted is one of the very PS3 games that I want to play at the moment, but it in no way looks better than Alan Wake.

Remedy has ALWAYS been ahead of the curve as far as graphics are concerned and the Max Payne games showed that in spades they were better than anything on the consoles when they came out and I don't have any doubt that AW will continue that trend.

No its true. When I heard that I didn't believe it either but found out it was true. Apparently the optimization is going to be godly. 

Those are PC pics. I doubt the game will look like that on consoles. kniveshurt18

Does this Include DX10 or DX9? , needless to say Im still going to go for the Quad core, but damn thats nice for those like me who currently are still stuck with Pentium 4s xD

DX10.

It was being run on an 8800GTX, 2 gigs of ram, and a single core, all maxed out and at a very high resolution (higher then 1080p)

it was running stable, and this was an unfinished build too boot.

I can go dig up the article now.

Why must you continue to lie to yourself? 

no. alan wake has more natural colours.pcmxms

So tell me, when you look out the window, is the world tinted brown? 

First screen=Jag fest.

Second screen=Is not the best Alan wake scren shot avalible and you know it.

Alan Wake is Free roaming mind you.

I personally think AW will be better, but Uncharted will rock too.

hummer700

Yeah i also think that Alan Wake is going to be better because of free roaming

Both games are on my most wanted list but im starting to get more excited over Alan Wake then Uncharted even if it was the opposide before some weeks but now as i have seen the gameplay videos of Uncharted it looks very similar to Gears, no free roaming just one path, most of the time only shooting and only 10h long, kinda dissapointing.

As it looks Alan Wake will be more interesting, longer and more story based game.

EDIT: Alan Wake is also better looking, it's a biger game with alot better textures they are much crisper and the colours are alot more natural and realistic so is the lightning.

Lol. I hate how everyone expects textures to look shiny in games this gen. Are dirt and trees shiny in real life?

Alan Wake > Uncharted

Real time weather effects... Tornado's and everything else. I'm sold!

Maybe at this years E3 we will get some 360 shots and info on the game.
