Fanboyism is quite sad.
I myself admit that I tended to downplay Heavy Rain before it game came out, due to fanboyism.
In this thread every single Sony fan is downplaying Alan Wake. |
Some people weren't too impressed with the video, but not all are "downplaying" it. You were insulting HEAVY RAIN without any footage at all and you know I would know because I called you out on it just about every time you did it.
In fact some of the people commenting in here are planning on buying it. They just aren't as impressed with the visuals as they had hoped to be. It happened with HEAVY RAIN, it's happening here.

I have to disagree. If you look around the web, our Forum here is the only real place people are ' appearing ' to be disappointed. Every forum Ive read are really crazy about the graphics. Especially the recent 4 min trailer. There is so many times you just cannot tell the differenc whether it's gameplay or cutscene. It's been a long long time since I have been truly wowed. I think that true wow is coming MAy 14th.
Even Uncharted 2 or Mass Effect 2 made me stop in my tracks, but not true Wowing like the first Gears did for the gen. I have never seen fog and lighting and environmental reaction and amotsphere 'ever' like this video in gaming.

I can't speak for the entire web. As I learned with HEAVY RAIN, you're always going to have people that: weren't impressed/letdown/downplayin' etc, etc.... But you'll also have those that are: impressed/overjoyed/happy about what's present. At this point, just do what I did, be happy for the title you have hyped and let all else be.

Oh hell yeah. I wouldnt miss this for the world.
Just a question, do you think it will get critical acclaim as best visuals this gen by reviews and media?
I think it's absolutely a given based of the latest 4 min trailer and this first 10 mins.
Just curious.
|
Yes, I can see it winning some critical acclaim over it's visuals and being touted as the current best that consoles have currently offered. But with stiff competition from Halo: Reach, God of War III, HEAVY RAIN, & Mass Effect 2.....it's going to be a hard fight. I see it settling on Meta @ 89 or 90 with 2.5-3mill sales LTD.

Yeah I think reviews will go gaga for the graphics, but some may mark down for gameplay style or something. So yeah. I'm hoping for 90+
