Alan Wake is the best looking game on the 360...period...the game looks amazing, and even more than looks, the animation of characters is very precise...the way they run, and move in general...WOW...game looks great, but I've got to wait to get home off trval to play it...since my wife wants to watch it as well..grrr, but I've got RDR as well.

This. It is the best looking game on the 360.

I'm really really impressed ! And I'm not really into graphics and stuffs...



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

Depends how you look at it. Visually - i.e. how well they use the 'whole' to trick your eye into seeing something lovely - I think it slightly edges Gears 2.

Technically - i.e. if I ignore how well Remedy balanced their visual choices and just look at the textures, AA, resolution, etc. and squint at the screen then Gears 2 is probably still ahead, mainly due to the higher resolution and certain areas of textures.

They're very different engines, though, so it's not the best compare.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Alan Wake can't even touch Gears. In visuals maybe but not in sales/fan base


Hell no it cant and i agree, but i only meant visually. People say Gears 2 is the Xbox's Uncharted 2. Thats why i ask. Thanks

i have never heard anybody say Gears is xbox'x uncharted 2.

 

Mass effect 2 is better than both Gears and Alan Wake.

 

Gears is also better than Alan Wake at detailing.so overall both ME2 and Gears are better than Alan Wake.

 

alan wake has very good lighting effects though



oh an other best pixel thread....can't we just say they both look good in their own ways?

It's like world peace. People all agree that war is bad.... but it keeps comming back.


And don't forget, in 10 years you'll say this gens graphics were crap anyways...



OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Visually Mass Effect 2 is more appealing.

People did say that the character models looked dated, etc for Alan Wake whereas Mass Effect 2 wasn't criticized for anything in the graphics department. I'm sure many would've seen the X360 version vs PC version of Mass Effect 2. BioWare did a bloody good job of making the graphics of the X360 version match closely to the PC version.

Course Gears 2 looks fab but ME2 is still better overall.

Oh okay thanks for clearing that up. Yeah I think Alan Wake could beat Gears 2 from what I've seen.



Yep, I believe so, until the next Gears 3 :)
