Lighting and environments are either classed as the best or up there as the best. It seems what is stopping Alan Wake getting overall Graphics king is character models and animation.


Not only that, sub-HD 540p rendering and lack of detail in textures are amongst the other issues which would prevent this by default. Also I read about bad lip sync, screen tearing.

The lighting is interesting, but not the best on consoles technically as pointed out earlier. Uncharted 2 and God of War 3 beats this game at this.


I'm not gonna argue with many of you here. Ive already made a very laughable thread. And now sig. LOL.

But I will say. Any review Ive read thats mentioned 540p has basically said it's a non issue, and is just as crisp as any top game.

Lip syncing comes under character modeling.

And according to reviews no GOW3 and U2 dont beat AW lighting. Lighitng without a doubt whether it be Gametrailers, IGN or Gamepro. All in awe of AW lighitng. Dancing shadows, fog, scale and environments are all points where Alan Wake finds itself right there in the mix with Crysis, GOW3 and U2. It would seem, more attention on lip syncing and animations would have resolved any quams at all with graphics from reviewers. And some added attention to detail on supporting characters. I'm a little disappointed to be honest.

5 years, and it's like they forgot to do the character model finishing touches in the last 6 months. Obviosuly I havent played it, but it would seem it's very much like the Heavy Rain graphics. Best of in some areas, and not in others. A shame, that such trivial things make it fall short, rather than technical hinderances.

But you have to LOL at me.

LOL @You xD.

Im at a point where I don't care so i'll do this:

You are absolutely 110% right! Alan Wake has the BEST lightning EVA!....

......GoW3 and Uncharted 2 happens to still hold the crown when it comes to EVERYTHING else xDD.

 

Now to the Selnor train, next stop is GeoW3 for GOTY and Graphics king!

(I kidd Sel, I wuv you xD <3)

 

Was a bit expected from me though, too much hype :|... The game looks fun though even though gamereactor said that the gameplay is linear and no horror scene or whatever...
