Will Alan Wake become a 360 console seller?

Alan Wake isn't going to be a game changer permanently reversing the WW sales order which has been in place ever since the PS3 price cut; to even think that is rather absurd.

Console price differential is the only real game changer at this point; as Sony ably demonstrated last year, and MS demonstrated the year before. If MS can put some more daylight between 360 and PS3 on pricing then we will probably see 360 start to extend its lead once more.

People pinning their hopes on Natal to do for the 360 what the Wiimote did for the Wii, I think, are going to be disappointed.

what.the.fuck. I don't think anyone said this...not even the op. Oh right, this is another vgchartz 360 bashing thread. I forgot.

I think you need to re-read the OP. The OP even uses the word "saviour" in the context of discussing whether Alan Wake can be a console seller. I think in that context what I've written is very much a direct response to the OP.

People mentioned Natal previously in this thread, so commenting on Natal isn't totally out of context either. And there are people who have suggested that with the launch of Natal it will propel 360 to 1st place in weekly sales for the rest of the gen, maybe not in this thread, but certainly in past threads. I think such notions are pollyannaish bout Natal, not too dissimilar about notions that 2009 PS3 pricecut would propel PS3 ahead of Wii over the long term.

So, not sure how you think my post is 360 bashing. Perhaps your preconceptions of what every PS3 owner (who doesn't own a 360) thinks about the 360 is distorting the way you interpret any and all 360 based commentary from such people.
