I am waiting on Metacritic, just like every other game. AAA game and I will buy it. I only play games with a AAA rating.
Alan Wake looks good in screen shots but those reviews need to confirm it is a AAA game.


Seriously?  You're missing out on a lot of great games.

on a side note, the same site will post a preview of alan wake later

Also, I m really waiting to see the full picture of this game. In those video I can note things that look "displaced" compared to my expectation but in the same time, you have to play it by yourself to really judge ... waiting for review

libellule just stop. U've been downplaying this game for over a year now. I'm sure you can see that it looks amazing, you just don't want to admit it.

It's 93% Meta, at least. Top 3 GOTY contender.



Unless this game gets slammed by bad ratings I will buy this game day 1. This game might just renew my faith in my 360.



I'll probably get it but I don't really care for games that are dark.

no, I dont have down played the game. As I said, it is too early to "judge" it right now.

But, from a video, you can also judge the gfx and I see what people are saying here AND on others sites.

I didnt have made much comment on ME2/HeavyRain because I didnt care that much about them.

For Alan wake that is another story because it has a survival horror feeling that comes from the atmosphere ... and I m going to burst bubble when it will be needed and ... shut up when it is needed too.

NOTE: the french preview is here !!!

Are they using the same graphics engine as Heavy Rain? They look nearly Identical.



2010 Hardware Sales Predictions

Wii: 20m- Sales will drop, but not by much.

PS3: 13.5m- It sold 12m in 2009, its only common sense it will sell more this year.

Xbox 360: 11m- It sold 11m in 2008 and 2009, I think it will sell the same.

My Fanboy Speech...

Why do you have to make excuses to defend a product that you purchased, but that's the only connection you have to it, you don't make it, you don't lose or gain money on it. I don't see where all of the defensiveness comes in, there is no reason for you or anybody else to feel obligated to defend it. Now I would understand if one of you were a developer for the product and you slaved over said product only to hear somebody call it stupid or a piece of junk. But none of you developed it, none of you are mature enough to realize that. Choosing a product all comes down to preference, you chose said product because it is best for you. Simple as that!

Having read the preview, it confirms that this game is not a survival horror because it is more oriented action (TP flashlight Shooter)

neverthless, there is perhaps a way, for them, to keep a strong atmosphere AND to have some big action sequence inside.

You see, I do not downplay Alan Wake, but I read between the line : it avoids to have unfair reaction ...

We will see how it goes.

(by the way, stop the technical comparaison with others game, AW is not a gfx powerhouse, let's focus on the good atmosphere/gameplay)

Wow I had no idea the game was going to look that good. Screenshots are one thing but in motion that was incredible. It just goes to show how time and hard work have it's reward.

I don't like to get into the whole which game looks better than the other stuff, but damn that looks nice. The gameplay looks very smooth and the atmosphere appears to be to top notch.

The game has been in dvelopement for 4 years, I expected more but the movement is smooth and the graphics are great. I'm going to get this game regardless of the scores.

i'm waiting for the reviews. i'm a bit of a trophy whore so the part where it's on the 360 not the ps3 is a bit of a negative for me....but a great game is a great game. if it turns out to be one of the greatest games this year i'll have to get it but if it's only a good game i'll probably pass for the other good games on the ps3.
